Activist Judge strikes down new Healthcare Law!

[CanadianKid]

I hear all the time how conservative apologists rail against activist judges...making laws....


Ok so what say you now? This is clearly judicial activism.... Do you condemn it or do you let it slide?

Come on conservatives...Lets see how hypocritical you really are!

any law that mandates a free person has to purchase some good or service is clearly unconstitutional, however, since you've failed to provide a link to the ruling or even summarized what the judge said is unconstitutional, i'll just assume you're throwing a tantrum.

Linky?

looks like he is expecting the ruling to be appealed - eventually to scotus

skimmed the opinion, appears well written and spot on

I skimmed it and it appears poorly drafted and way off base.

 

[SmarterthanYou]

Hypocrite!

how so? mandating the purchase of a good or service isn't unconstitutional?

of course you would, because it goes against your world view

the part about penalty vs. tax was excellent...

find something wrong with the ruling...so far i see nothing, but i haven't thoroughly reviewed it

your not required to buy it. you can refuse and pay higher taxes.

What every working American is required to by at gunpoint is medicare and SSI.

how is it considered constitutional to tax people for NOT participating in inter or intra state commerce?

regardless of what you or i think, the final ruling will be by scotus

there is already case law regarding the compulsion of buying insurance or posting a bond - just not health insurance so far

please note that it is piggybacked on the federal tax form so it is semi-attached to the income tax and may be regarded as another tax

Dont know how it will be judged but its not the only good/service that has tax implications associated with it. I pay less tax by buying a new sliding glass door this year. I would pay less tax buy purchasing health insurance in this plan.
