Should the supremes OK this farce, methinks it’ll signal the beginnings of a mass exit from our acquiescence with the current systems of laws.

Screw ‘em.

If they can implement this law it signals the legislative abolition of freedom. At that point, the government is no longer legitimate, and rules purely through intimidation and lethal threat. Nothing more.

The legislation is too big to be held unconstitutional, and the court will so hold: they will find that it is a political question. If it doesn’t, the big agenda for world government would take too long to implement.

The recent appointments to the court were permitted without a fight by both parties for just this purpose. They will make it look like a close case, but the outcome is predetermined.

Like a fair trial and the right to due process is a political question.

There is no Constitutional provision that is, like the pirate code, nothing more than a “Guideline,” according to current scholarship. The highest law of the land is merely the initial set of generalized aspirational goals that have now outlived their usefulness.

The case will be decided in the summer of 2012, when the Occupy Wall Streeters will be once again taking to their tents, this time with the support of the court. The practice session is over.

The only thing that will get rid of this bill is a repeal, and that is not going to happen.

Get ready, because the second Obama term will make the first look like callisthenics before the big game.

The Wheels Are Falling Off Of President Obama's Health Care Plan

Uh-huh. Not that I'm skeptical or anything but I think we better elect a bunch of Tea Partiers in 2012 just to be safe.

The cost to America resulting from this regime continue to mount. From Obama care, fast and furious, OWS, Solar panels, union goons, code pink, everything they look at turns into an obstruction and a cost to tax payers.

We WISH the wheels would fall off. But the nanny-staters are not done yet - there is WAY too much for them at stake.

If the true costs of the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act” were revealed, even most of the moderately to strong supporters of this resource-limiting and wealth transfer scheme would rise in revolt. If you just look at your health care premiums for the coming year, you already see significant penalties assessed against you for the support of the whole program, which is by no means fully in effect yet. And this is just the FIRST year’s increase, the rise shall continue exponentially over the next ten years, if not longer.

That is, if it is not repealed. But the cry comes, you can’t replace something with nothing. Well, yes, you can, because emergency and urgent care facilities already exist. True, they are already overburdened, but would not the expenditures for expanding and improving these existing facilities be money much better spent, than trying to place mandates for certain conditions, and “review boards” (death panels) for serious disorders. Single payer is a huge fraud, reducing costs for nobody, and assuring both the above are the only two paths to “community health”.

Medical savings accounts, to cover the minor expenses of health maintenance, and major medical insurance, to cover those catastrophic costs associated with trauma, devastating disease, or serious stress situations, is a much better deal for the vast majority of Americans, working and retired. For the financially distressed, the existing emergency and urgent care facilities, fully funded and supported in the community, are their alternative. Nowhere is it written that either of these has to be supported in any way by the Federal government, though it may be a useful thing to administer at the state or local levels.

But there is no populist appeal in that.

You know, it’s seems interesting they can remove a part of the bill, namely the section for 1099 requirement and still leave the rest of the bill intact without nullifying it.

I disagree with this article. Based on the Reagan appointee who voted to uphold this nightmare, I’m now inclined to think that it is a fait accompli untill proven otherwise.

I’m also of the opinion that I will likely be disenfranchised by the GOP establishment as they shove Mittens down our collective throats which means 4 more years of crap like Obamacare from an unleashed Obama. As Chris Rock seems to be all giddy, Obama after re-election is “gonnae do some real gangsta s***!”.

But it’s all good, this way, the GOP establishment will have cleared the decks for Jeb Bush in 2016.

the big question will be “what do we do next?” because by the time this is settled the existing system may be left in a heap of smoking wreckage

End it, don’t mend it. Repeal is 1st priority for the new GOP Senate and President. Then on to drilling off the coast and limiting the power of EPA, Energy, Education, etc.

Killing Obamacare is job 1.
