>>> There has got to be a way to stop this crap. We should all stop filing our income tax. Seems like money talks in this world.
I think the next step is the state legislatures.
I do believe that some states have already passed anti-Obamacare legislation, pretty much claiming states rights over federal authority to implement any form of health care reform nationwide.
What needs to happen is a wave of these state laws that declare exemption from Obamacare for residents of their particular state. This will of course force the issue to the Supreme Court which should find the federal law unconstitutional.
I thought the same way as you do, for a while. I believe it was arizona, who was having some vote, on excuding thier state from healthcare reform. I thought this was a great idea, until I began to think about what the reform would actually do.
Tell me what you think of my thoughts on this..and whether or not states opting out..will matter or not.
If that HR3200 type bill is passed..employers will be fined for not providing insurance. Most americans get their insurance thru work.
So, lets say the fine..is less than what the employer is shelling out. What do you think he will do? If the fine is less..he will drop his employees insurance. Under that plan, you would then have to buy govt insurance.
If your state opts out..what happens? You cant have ANY insurance?
You are forced to buy the govts.
This is why I think, opting out, ultimately wont matter. They have us over a barrel.
