HB3200, Unconstitutional?

The liberal Democrats in Washington have lost their minds, and with any kind of voter response next year they will have lost their cushy Washington jobs. I for one have read most of HB3200, and believe me the legalese vernacular is not easy to read, however, the layman with a little effort, and patience can garner the important points of the Bill. It is however purposely vague and open to a wide spectrum of interpretation, and lawyers love it that way, as it does provide a lot of wiggle room when push comes to shove. Having said that, it is clear to me as well as millions of other Americans HB3200 is not really about health care reform is it? What it is about is a huge power grab, which will allow the Federal Government to control virtually every facet of your lives.

Not only is this HB3200 “America’s Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009” a huge power grab that puts the American people on critical path to Socialism, I believe it is a Bill written that is unconstitutional. Now, I am not a Constitutional Scholar however, I can read, comprehend, evaluate, and come to rationale conclusions on nearly any subject written in English, the exceptions would be those subjects that are esoteric in nature.

I have read the Declaration of Independence many times, and I consider it the greatest document ever written in terms of what Thomas Jefferson envisioned the Essence of the United States of America should be and ultimately became. The U.S Constitution of course is in effect a “User’s Guide” on what the federal Government can do, and cannot do. The Bill of Rights particularly the first ten Amendments explicitly are for the protection from an intrusive, and oppressive government. Herein lies the problem with HB3200 it is over the top intrusive and oppressive mainly it takes away our freedom of choice by government mandated Universal Health care, we as citizens will have no choice. President Obama’s blathering on about “If you like your doctor and your health plan you can keep them” is just a crock. Private insurance companies will not be able to compete
against a Government run health plan that does not have to make a profit. Eventually everyone would be funneled into this onerous, people controlling behemoth of a bureaucracy.

Article I, Section 8 of the United States Constitution spells out the enumerated powers granted the Federal Government. So help me I see nothing in the enumerated powers that allows the Federal Government to mandate Universal health care for every American. As all Congressmen should know, any of those enumerated powers that are not authorized under Article I Section 8, are however, covered in the X Amendment.

Congressmen/women need to get off their political high horses and start living up to their Oath of Office, Read the Declaration of Independence, get familiar with the United States Constitution. You’re putting your political careers in jeopardy by following this nefarious progressive, statist path to the destruction of the United States. I do believe that in the words of the Japanese Admiral Yamamoto subsequent to the attack on Pearl Harbor, “I fear we have awakened a sleeping giant”, and folks this Universal Health Care is the progressive, statists Pearl Harbor.

May God Bless America, and all who love her!
