    Default Re: Obamacare Going Down?

    I want to see the court reject the federal governments ability to abuse the commerce clause without limit.im in favore of a mandate, but at the state level. I want to see a weakened federal government, but im not sure that the idea of some sort of mandate would be unconstitutional. Put a mandatory lein on paychecks for failure to pay medical bills if you are uninsured, but let the states work out what ismost effective.

    Id rather the court decide that the enumeration of powers allows questions of authority to default to states than have them reject a mandate out of hand

    -Eric "George Orwell" Blair

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."
    (Lincoln's First Inaugural Address, 1861).
