| LG, will you represent me when I sue the gov't when healthcare passes?
I'll sue the gov't and it will go to the supreme court because it is unlawful for the gov't to force you to have an insurance policy. You can have all the money and attention from the case LG!

they have the spines of a jellyfish

I'm not sure that the D's don't go ahead and pass it regardless of the political consequences... once it's law, there will be no going back |

Same way it's unlawful for the gov't to make you have auto insurance? | |

| Its unconstitutional to require that people have health insurance?
Why is that?
I know that Florida requires that I have car insurance and that if I don't I'm not allowed to drive -- its a criminal offense.

You can drive around your property all day long and they can say nothing. You need the insurance to drive state roads and highways. They can legislate that. | |

That's wrong. Florida is a no fault state, meaning you are insuring your own med bills up to about $10k.
Besides which, a certain percentage of your insurance is designed to offset the costs created by the uninsured. They get shifted to you.

To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.
| If you can't tie it to the list (or the list of other gov. branches), it's not part of their power.
