If our founding fathers intended for the ICC to give Congress unlimited powers then they would not have listed specific powers in Article 1 Section 8. Instead they would have written only the ICC in Article 1 Section 8.

The founding fathers would also not have written the 10th Amendment and would not have started it with the words "Any powers not delegated to the United States" if all powers were in fact delegated to Congress.

COrrect. And there IS no “national government” under our Constitution that can enact “national health care.” Rather, as Mr. Robinson points out, there are 50 sovereign states which agree that for certain FUNCTIONS, such as military defense, a federal representative republic can operate. America is DIFFERENT, everybody!!! Our country is NOT like the others that have enacted “national” health care. And by the way, let’s look at where our government has operated (no pun intended) in health care: The Bureau of Indian Affairs, and the Veterans Administration. There you go, shining examples of what government medicine can accomplish! End of story—or it would be if DC weren’t full of crooks and their “perception management” teams (people who are paid big bucks to CREATE and DISSEMINATE lies).
