rushmc 23 #2 January 31, 2011 3:00PM EST: A federal judge in Florida has struck down as unconstitutional key parts of the sweeping health care reform bill championed by President Barack Obama. Officials in Florida and 25 other states are challenging sections of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, including the “individual mandate” requiring most Americans to purchase health insurance in four years or face stiff penalties."America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

Please continue so I may better understand your point This is a case of "be careful what you wish for." Emergency rooms will not turn away people that can't pay for healthcare. Now, instead of forcing people to buy "some" healthcare, they won't buy any yet will still get it in emergency rooms. Guess who actually pays for that?

Honestly, we should work on eliminating EMTALA. I don't think that is likely to happen but it is a horrible law."What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

kelpdiver 2 #11 January 31, 2011 QuoteGroovy. Now that we've determined that we can't force people to buy insurance, we'll just provide it to them for free. Happy now? if you mean the status quo, then yes, many people will be happy. No change is better than bad, expensive change. If you mean everyone will get a health plan, and we'll all be taxed to pay for it, that takes new legislation, and that's certainly not going anywhere in the House. The employer based method of health care will have to decay further before there is majority support for all of this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Judges are legislating from the bench. My point is the right does not want judges that apply and interpret law! The right wants activists because they can not get the laws they want because they are in the minority!!! In the cases where judges make law they should be held up to scrutiny and made accountable for their actions. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A strict constructionalist is going to going to vote as the right wants here. for all the effort spent getting this passed, they were lazy with the legal issues.

Read the ruling He struck down a law based on Constitutional law I do not want activists on either side You do. And to hold them up to account? Damned right They should be for every ruling they make The canvas they are looked at against is already written"America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

Blithering ignorance IS a curable condidition. there is a difference between constitutional law and case law and many are using case law to decide cases. Case law can be turned to not represent the constition. so look in the mirror at the blithering ignorance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flunking Civics 101 means that you, too, can post REALLY stupid statements regarding how you think the US Judicial system should work. Civics 101 would say that the courts should strike down such legislation, because the Constitution has explicit language. PoliSci 101 will discuss when this really does happens, and when pigs fly as well. States' rights and equal branches of government are fantasies taught in Civics 101.
