From Michael Connelly - Retired attorney,
Constitutional Law
Instructor
Carrollton, Texas
Well, I have done it! I have read the entire text of proposed House
Bill 3200: The Affordable Health Care Choices Act of 2009. I studied
it with particular emphasis from my area of expertise, constitutional
law. I was frankly concerned that parts of the proposed
law that were being discussed might be unconstitutional. What I found wasfar worse than what I had heard or expected.
 
  To begin with, much of what has been said about the law and its
implications is in fact true, despite what the Democrats and the media
are saying. The law does provide for rationing of health care,
particularly where senior citizens and other classes of citizens are
involved, free health care for illegal immigrants, free abortion
services, and probably forced participation in abortions by members of
the medical profession.
         
    The Bill will also eventually force private insurance companies out of business and put everyone into a government run system.
All decisions about personal health care will ultimately be made by
federal bureaucrats and most of them will not be health care
professionals. Hospital admissions, payments to physicians, and
allocations of necessary medical devices will be strictly controlled.
 
  However, as scary as all of that it, it just scratches the surface.
In fact, I have concluded that this legislation really has no
intention of providing affordable health care choices. Instead it is a
convenient cover for the most massive transfer of power to the Executive Branch of
government that has ever occurred, or even been contemplated. If this law or
a similar one is adopted, major portions of the Constitution of the United
States will effectively have been destroyed.
         
   The first thing to go will be the masterfully crafted balance of power between the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches of the U.S. Government. The Congress will be transferring to the Obama Administration authority in a number of different areas over the lives of the American people and the businesses they own. The irony is that the Congress doesn't have any authority to legislate in most of those areas to begin with. I defy anyone to read the text of the U.S. Constitution and find any authority granted to the members of Congress to regulate health care.
  This legislation also provides for access by the appointees of the
Obama administration of all of your personal healthcare information,
your personal financial information, and the information of your
employer, physician, and hospital. All of this is a direct violation
of the specific provisions of the 4th Amendment to the Constitution
protecting against unreasonable searches and seizures.
You can also forget about the right to privacy. That will have been
legislated into oblivion regardless of what the 3rd and 4th Amendments
may provide.
 
  If you decide not to have healthcare insurance or if you have
private insurance that is not deemed "acceptable" to the "Health
Choices Administrator" appointed by Obama there will be a tax imposed
on you. It is called a "tax" instead of a fine because of the intent
to avoid application of the due process clause of the 5th Amendment.
However, that doesn't work because since there is nothing in the law
that allows you to contest or appeal the imposition of the tax, it is
definitely depriving someone of property without the "due process of
law.
 
  So, there are three of those pesky amendments that the far left hate
so much out the original ten in the Bill of Rights that are
effectively nullified by this law. It doesn't stop there though.
The 9th Amendment that provides: "The enumeration in the Constitution,
Of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained
by the people;" The 10th Amendment states: "The powers not delegated to the
United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are
preserved to the States respectively, or to the people." Under the
provisions of this piece of Congressional handiwork neither the people nor
the states are going to have any rights or powers at all in many areas that
once were theirs to control.
 
 I could write many more pages about this legislation, but I think
you get the idea. This is not about health care; it is about seizing
power and limiting rights. Article 6 of the Constitution requires the
members of both houses of Congress to "be bound by oath or
affirmation" to support the Constitution. If I was a member of
Congress I would not be able to vote for this legislation or anything
like it without feeling I was violating that sacred oath or
affirmation.
 
If I voted for it anyway I would hope the American people would hold me
accountable.
 
   For those who might doubt the nature of this threat I suggest they
consult the source.

That is a good article. I read it and I believe all points are correct. Here is the bottom line:"This is not about health care; it is about seizing
power and limiting rights".

So many things are unconstitutional, the Patriot Act, the Federal Reserve, the Empirical Presidency, etc. Our representatives are no longer representative. They have been corrupted.

When do we take our country back?


Here are the three stages or types of Government:
1. The free market and liberty.
2. Interventionism.
3. Socialism

We have been an interventionist government since Wilson, the first progressive who gave us the Federal Reserve (along with JP Morgan and the bankers). It is the most unstable of the three.

An interventionist government always causes severe unseen problems when they interfere in the free market thinking they are fixing a perceived problem. Then it must intervene more to fix the problem that they caused. When it is almost completely broken, they demand socialism. Medical care is an example. Government caused the problems by the tax structure, welfare and Medicare. The unseen problem is that Medicare is broke and medicine costs too much. They intend to fix it by socialism. That too will fail as socialism cannot economically succeed as witnessed by the USSR and all other socialist regimes that have all failed. Government planners have a problem, they think they are super smart and can run all things.

They are now in the process of causing a currency crisis and Obamacare will surely speed things up.

The iron law of economics is that the more you use something, the more it will cost. The second iron law of economics is if the government puts price caps on it, there will be rationing and waiting lines.

If one desires to lower the costs of medical care, get the government out of it; stop protecting the insurers, allow competition. Of course, as long as they are getting the big contributions from the insurers, fat chance.
The sole purpose of government is to protect your liberty. The Constitution is not to restrict the people, but to restrict government.  Ron Paul

The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first. - Thomas Jefferson

" Free health care for illegal immigrants", and " free abortion services" , now that is really what we need!!!When is this government going to ever learn?
This certainly does not start to solve any problems and only encourages more of the same.
The illegal immigration problem here in the Denver,CO. region is massive. The state is operating in the "Red" and alot of the problem is the cost of providing free services for these illegal immigrants.
