@Finn dAbuzz,
You've got to be a pretty scummy person to do what you continually attempt to do here, Finn. Constant misdirection, unbelievable levels of hypocrisy, outright lies.

We should be able to depend upon our government, and if we could depend upon our government for justice we would not be reduced to depending upon the government for some form of welfare.

Today's Obama government is not one you can depend on for anything good.

It was always a house divided, but there has always been so much of America, and so much opportunity that most of us, enough of us could do well even if we did not have justice from our government having justice as one of its goals... Now you see us fighting amongs ourselves, locked in bitter hatred in some cases and advocating a sort of social cannibalism, of taking from the weak because the rich and powerful have already secured the best and the rest, and where is the government to give us the promised justice???

You say Obama's government, but his government like all the rest has existed to serve the rich... He has to put on the appearance of serving the poor, but the facts are that his a bought negro... He is not going to give us justice, and no people should actually rely upon their government for justice... We should never allow our government to deny us justice as our government have always done, or eventually it will get to the point as it has in medicine where whe poor will want and wait for good health so the rich can have theirs as they wish... Look at the bastards in government... They serve themselves for a few years and when fired by the people they have health insurance for life... Why should they care what we must suffer... They will not care what we endure unless they themselves also endure it... Their wages must be the same as our wages and then we can see both go up together... Their health care must be the same as our health care if we expect improvement of our own... It should be our government and we should expect from it all and everything it has promised when it set itself up in business...

Fido, Obama democrats talk of leveling the playing field and making thing equal for everyone. They lie.
They are actually attempting to make the dumbmasses equally miserable while they increase their wealth and power at our expense.

Yeah; I have long had a low opinion of McCain,
but I voted for him against oboy.

It boggles the mind
that anyone coud think that Congress had the authority
to make all American citizens buy health insurance.

That concept, in effect, repudiates the Constitution,
specificly the 9th and 10th Amendments; naked usurpation.

Interestingly, Judge Vinson didn't base his opinion primarily on 9A and 10A - unless they're indirectly referred to and I missed it:
Quote:
[T]here are lots of markets—especially if defined broadly enough—that people cannot “opt out” of. For example, everyone must participate in the food market. Instead of attempting to control wheat supply by regulating the acreage and amount of wheat a farmer could grow as in Wickard, under this logic, Congress could more directly raise too low wheat prices merely by increasing demand through mandating that every adult purchase and consume wheat bread daily, rationalized on the grounds that because everyone must participate in the market for food, non-consumers of wheat bread adversely affect prices in the wheat market. Or, as was discussed during oral argument, Congress could require that people buy and consume broccoli at regular intervals, not only because the required purchases will positively impact interstate commerce, but also because people who eat healthier tend to be healthier, and are thus more productive and put less of a strain on the health care system. Similarly, because virtually no one can be divorced from the transportation market, Congress could require that everyone above a certain income threshold buy a General Motors automobile—now partially government-owned—because those who do not buy GM cars (or those who buy foreign cars) are adversely impacting commerce and a taxpayer-subsidized business....

The Court is using the means of reductio ad absurdum,
to champion the filosofy of the 9th and 10th Amendments, that the federal government
is limited to its explicitly granted authority
and that the interstate commerce clause
was NOT intended to be an engine of despotism over American citizens.

I 'd have been tempted to throw the 13th Amendment
into the argument.

While saying I agree that basic equality of opportuhity and services is essential to democracy; let me state that to treat everyone equally does an injustice to all... People are different, and all deserving of individual recognition which takes into account their ability and needs... If they have honor they will demand no more from society than they give, nor take more than they deserve; and honor too is essential to democracy... Unfortunately, our society denies the value of honor at every turn and rewards dishonor to such an extent that it is an empty word.. Judges and politicians take oaths, but hide behind the very rights they are meant to defend... No wonder we hold them in such contempt, and heap them high with contumely....

@OmSigDAVID,
It is the judge's argument that is absurd. Forcing people to buy broccoli is not the same thing as health coverage. Broccoli is one kind of food just like Viagra would be one kind of health coverage need. The government isn't forcing everyone to buy Viagra.

If you want to make a comparison, health care is like food. Everyone will need it in their lifetime. We don't allow people to get free food. Either they pay for it or the government subsidizes those that can't afford it. Is the judge arguing that we can't make people pay for food? If the government required that all persons be able to get groceries from a grocery store whether they can pay or not would we still feel the same way?

It is the OPPOSITE of absurd.
The judge is aware that there is NO
jurisdictional predicate. Therefore, it is an ultra vires act of USURPATION.

In BOTH cases,
government has NO jurisdiction to make anyone buy it against his will.

You are perfectly incorrect. What more, the first bill which mandated that citizens buy items - whether they like it or not - was signed by George Washington himself. The Militia act of 1792.

Federal mandates have been around forever and the vast majority of legal scholars recognize this. You're simply talking out your ass here.

That was in furtherance
of a GRANTED and unquestioned power of Congress: the War Power.

Buying insurance is not in furtherance of the War Power;
i.e., there is no jurisdictional predicate,
unlike the Militia Act.

Guns ARE health insurance,
but thay are not mandatory.

Do u think that (like compulsory use of seatbelts)
the 2nd Amendment shoud have made gun possession mandatory
for each citizen who is able to aim one ?

Maybe.

@OmSigDAVID,
Since guns ARE health insurance and since the 1792 Militia act mandated ownership of guns it appears we have a precedent for government mandating health insurance.

Hawkeye no insurance model will work if you can wait until you are ill to be cover by insurance.

If everyone need to be cover rule go then the mandate on covering people with preexisting conditions will have to go also.

@OmSigDAVID,
Health mandates also fall under a granted and unquestioned power of the Constitution: the Commerce clause. And there exists a wealth of case law that supports this - the SC has been pimping the commerce clause for about 40 straight years now, for all sorts of things.
