Judge Declares ObamaCare Unconstitutional

@Daisy

A little competition across state lines would bring down costs much faster than any government legislation. As for the un-insured running up ER costs, the majority of those cases are illegal aliens. I can agree that problem needs to be addressed.

@yallcrazy,

No everyone doesn’t fit these categories, but the few who don’t can be cared for without the Federal gov’t taking over 1/5 of the economy. These matters should be handled at the state level. If your state doesn’t have the care or options you desire you have mobility. Centralizing power with the Federal gov’t, especially on something like personal health, is insane. Where would one seek out alternatives? Why do you think the UK, and Canada are now looking to scale back their systems to keep from going completely broke?

LA, it was my understanding that you couldn’t purchase the “care” across state lines. Is that not that case?

Yes that was my original point. Making it available to buy across state lines would be a getter solution.

Man, I just don’t care™ says:

There will just be a few tweaks and this will eventually be passed in some measure.

Racketeers “Healthcare companies” have been robbing people blind unimpeded for decades and EVERYONE pays for it. Ideally, there would be more government OVERSIGHT limiting certain things and creating a more competetive business environment, which would eventually lower cost.

Sorry Man,

To quote an article I once read, if you want to punish the insurance companies make them compete. More regulation just means fewer companies will be able to overcome the stifling regulations, and government grows larger and more expensive. Meanwhile the big boys have a virtual monopoly in whichever states they operate, since they little guy has been taken out for him, not allowed to compete. Right now you only have three or four choices in some states. Why not 100? Wouldn’t prices be forced to go down? Wouldn’t insurance companies be compelled to provide better products lest they be beat by their competition?

“if this were Hillary Clinton propising the same exact thing people would think she’s saving their lives, its not the plan its the fact that its a black man or our first mixed president as you would say Sandra, proposing it”

Umm hello? Do you not remember Hillary Care? Hillary was derided much the same way. The problem is not the messenger, the problem is that providing healthcare should not be in the hands of the Federal government. After the Tuskegee experiments I would think black people especially would want government as far away from our health as possible.

Americans are not greedy or selfish, we give more to charity and aid to other countries than any nation. I already pay 35% of my income to the Feds and 10% to my state, plus sales taxes of 10%. That’s more than HALF my income to taxes. Then whatever the government gets, it WASTES more than half. Did you know that private charities on average give .90 on the dollar to the end user, whereas government only gives .29? That means 71 percent is WASTED before it gets to any needy person. So now we hand over 1/5 of the economy to them? GTFOH!
