Agreed. I'd have the same argument regarding auto insurance if the Federal government required everyone purchase auto insurance. However, that's required by the State which properly has that power. If the State had a requirement to purchase health insurance I'd have no objection to that exercise of power because that power is reserved to the States.bdickens wrote: Oh, the old commerce clause. The most abused bit of the whole Constitution and the leftist's favorite ploy to use in foisting stuff on us that is clearly Unconstitutional by any reasonable reading of it. Exactly how, might I ask, is ramming government-controlled health care down our throats "regulating interstate commerce?"
This is why I have no objection to Massachusetts Care, as it's a State mandate and not a Federal mandate. The Federal government needs to begin obeying the 10th Amendment.
