It is but a first step in a socialist agenda based upon the Cloward Piven Strategy to which Barack Hussein subcribes. The end justifies the means. Objective: scrap capitalism, free enterprise, private ownership, personal freedoms, and rebuild the USA into a socialist nation. Remember the Union of Soviet Socialists Republic? Well, welcome to the United Socialist States of America.

Forcing a person to buy something that they dont need or want in mob type activity. Our government has become a mob a long time ago and it’s getting worse. Politicians can say whatever to get elected, and then are under no obligation whatsoever to do what they promised. This health care reform is a reform in favor of big business, not the people. If I am forced to buy from the mob in this way I will be looking for ways to settle my affairs and leave this country.

“Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness”. Yes, requiring health insurance is as unconstitutional as requiring car or life insurance. All this “talk” about the commerce amendment just side-steps the issue.

The unconstitutionality lies in the “Freedom of Religion”. How can someone believe that they are “Assured” by GOD if they must be Insured by the “State”. NO longer can they say they are in “Good Hands” because they are in “God’s Hands” they must say that they are in “Good Hands” because they are in “All-States” hands.

An this is not ALL that’s wrong. Requiring “car insurance” shifts the burden of proof and destroys the presumption of innocense. The state is not required to prove that a person does not have insurance, the person must prove that he does have “financial responsibility”. This is TOTALLY against the constitution.

And, if anyone ever had their insurance “lapse” the insurance companies are “required” to be watch-dog snitches and tell the state – However they don’t have to report someone purchasing insurance, so if a person just switches insurance companies, he must prove to the state that he was covered or be charged with a crime.

NO, NO, NO – The whole problem is that LAWS are to be based on what DID happen not what COULD happen….

The arguments about the provision being unconstitutional are bogus. They distort the law and the economic impact of the uninsured. http://dissentingjustice.blogspot.com/2009/08/is-healthcare-reform-unconstitutional.html

car insurance is state mandated which falls perfectly along the 9th amendment.
But if this reform bill is like Romneycare it’s not mandated it will still leave 5% uncovered but those people are rich people who will face massive tax penalties.
I’d need to see the part of the bill that addresses this to be sure. I’m not exactly an expert I’ve only read like half of it. If you got reference to that part of the bill i totally need to read up on it.

Thats unclear

Like Car Insurance, Health Coverage May Be Mandated
A Proposed Requirement That All Americans Have Policies Has Broad Support Among Reformers

It would certainly depend on the makeup of the court at the time. Lets all recall the Kelo case. I believe the liberals on the court decided ” Public Use” also meant ” Public Good”.
