May 20, 2011 Liberals fear it, conservatives hope the Supreme Court upholds it. Judge Roger Vinson's ruling on the Affordable Care Act of 2010, along with the others that have cleared District Court (or will) are sure to end up at the Supreme Court.
Very few people have actually read the decision. If I could "mandate" that all Americans read this decision, Americans would come to understand the profound issues it raises. For at stake is whether Congress is free to regulate every human activity - and I do not exaggerate.
If you have not had a chance to read the entire bill, but want to know its critical arguments, use this document. My purpose in writing this document is to summarize the arguments in Judge Roger Vinson's 2011 ruling.
I have compiled a condensed version of the bill. Go to our website or just click here to read it. Then send it to everyone you know.
Thanks for this post.
You’re welcome.

Thanks Jim.
Nice, thanks.
I am glad to have this. Thanks.
I hate pdf files.
I appreciate the author’s efforts, but when he says to “send this to everyone you know”, I wince, because a 10 page pdf “condensed version of the ruling” is not a very good way to explain the ruling to the sheeple, and the non-sheeple already have it figured out.
Well, I’m sorry. It’s all I had available to me, and thought some folks would appreciate it.
thank you EV

Don’t read me the wrong way; I’m not putting you down.
I guess I’m just having one of those moments
where all I see is “us” preaching to the choir...
FRegards...
ping for later...
My favorite part:
In sum, notwithstanding the fact that many of the provisions in the Act can stand independently without the individual mandate (as a technical and practical matter), it is reasonably “evident,” … that the individual mandate was an essential and indispensable part of the health reform efforts, and that Congress did not believe other parts of the Act could (or it would want them to) survive independently. I must conclude that the individual mandate and the remaining provisions are all inextricably bound together in purpose and must stand or fall as a single unit. The individual mandate cannot be severed. (74)
You betcha. Kill the whole monster.
I hear you. Sorry if I sounded a little snippy. Kinda having a bad day.
You betcha.
None of the links seem to work. How can I read this?
It looks like the hosting site
http://www.freemarkethealthcare.com
no longer exists.
Don’t know.
I FReepmailed the author’s email address to you.
Hope that helps.
