It would be nice for a bunch of state governors to stand up and say “(State) will NOT comply with these illegal laws.”

the only obvious thing I can see is legal action to prevent a Federal mandate on the people that is unconstitutional. I am not real confident that judicial system will be real helpful, though.

It might take a supermajority to overturn it but it won’t take a supermajority to not fund it.

The precident for banning a coercion to purchase health care, which is a contract, is United States vs Reynolds. It draws on the 13th Amendment prohibition on Indentured Servitude. Straight to SCOTUS. This court will uphold Reynolds.

Also, look for a lot of income to start “disappearing” (John Galt style).

Smart Canadians save up their money to travel to America for important medical stuff. We will have to save up our money to go to overseas for what we used to get right here in the comfort of our own country.

First, doesn’t the amended bill go back to the House? If it doesn’t, and passes as is and goes to Obama, then the fallout is going to be interesting. The current bill mandates purchase of health insurance under penalty of law, but there is no public option. Therefore you have to buy from a private insurance company. Won’t this only strengthen private insurance, or are there other things in the bill to make things go the other way.

With 2000 plus pages, its frikken hard to know what is going to happen.

Rebellion.

4/15/10
Be there
Be belligerent
Be intimidating
Shut down Washington, DC. We can do it. We could have done it on 9/12, but we were (foolishly) trying to show we are civilized people who respect the law. We can make them fear us. DC simply does not have the manpower or the resources to do much of anything if 1.5 million of us get physical.

In addition, it is time to start forming formal, organized groups that, in mass, will refuse to buy government mandated “insurance”. Publicly and vocally and in your face. Think about it. What is DC going to do when 5 or 10 million people simply refuse to obey their “law”? Essentially, citizen nullification.

But this would have to be done early on to be effective.

I cannot give permission to be killed by drugs if they won’t treat my condition.
I will have to go home and live with the pain.

I’m preparing myself to suffer and leave my family so they won’t see it. I’m guessing to a bridge or box.

It doesn’t look very cheery.

Any federal version of health care is unconstitutional since Article 1 Section 8 does not specifically grant Congress the power to regulate health care. The people are not bound by any unconstitutional act of Congress.

The people must respond with civil disobedience if Congress passes this unconstitutional legislation.

If we could get enough people to just refuse to pay income taxes next April 15th they would get the message.

It would have to be a United effort, but they cannot jail us all.

If it passes, Republicans run in 2010 on Deathcare's complete and utter rescission, the slogan being:

Like it never even happened.

The Republican's capture the House, they capture the purse strings. They don't spend, then nobody spends. If Obama doesn't sign the rescission, then his Government is starved until it relents.

stand on principal and refuse to pay for the mandated policy (though with a little bad luck you might find Keith Olbermann is your cellmate)

1) Civil Disobedience for Healthcare “Mandates” (Taxes)- Then when a large number of people have been incarcerated and fined for this DEMAND a mass pardon!

2) Don’t pay your taxes? (Risky, but are YOU willing to do it)!?

3) Turn to the states to “opt out” it’s citizens from the consequences (and paying) for Obamacare.

4) Make sure there is a majority to repeal it.

5) (Highly unlikely) but seek to overturn it in the Courts.

6) Move?

How about using a right wing Rhambo move of finding some dirt (old, new, Tiger Woods-style) stuff on a Democrat?

How about an affair, liason, corruption, bribery, pay-for-play, campaign doner fraud, Mob/union/Greenie ties...

Can we dig up anything, or if we did, would the State-run media spin, ignore or deny any investigation anyway?
