I never thought that I would find something moving enough to motivate me to write in this blog. Apparently all it took was the total abuse of the Federal government’s power and the shredding of our nation's Constitution. I hope this and more will drive me to keep this blog going if for no one else then for myself.
Never in my short life have I been more sickened to the stomach than I am now, after watching the passage of this unconstitutional garbage that they call a bill. Nowhere in the Constitution does it state that the Federal Government has the power to pass such legislation. Anyone that believes that I am incorrect has obviously never read the Federalist Papers which clearly defines the language used in the Constitution. The ability for the Federal government to regulate Commerce was never intended to be used in this manner. It was written into the Constitution to prevent the states from erecting trade barriers between one another, such as inter-state tariffs.
Even if you try to support H.R. 3590 through the Supreme Court decision of Gibbons v. Ogden, you will run into a problem. Health Insurance companies do not operate over state lines. This means that their businesses are not that of inter-state commerce. So how do you justify the passage of regulations, through the use of an inter-state commerce clause (Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution) on businesses that do not operate in an inter-state manner? The fact is that it is not possible in any sense of rational logical thought. But that is what seems to be missing from every branch of our Federal government these days, among many other aspiring traits.
One aspect of H.R. 3590 that few have discussed, but are of major importance to every young American is the amendment which affects student loans. The fact that a Health Care Reform has an amendment to it that even concerns the way student loans are handled is pathetic and baffling enough. Now consider the fact that this amendment is a complete overhaul of the student loan system. Everything from how these loans are handed out, how they are administered, and to amount of such loans. I was forced to stop writing for just a moment as I heard Barack Obama give his speech following the bill’s passage. Speaking of the house bill H.R. 3590, this bill “removed [items] from the Senate bill which should never have been there.” The timing of this statement is almost laughable and would be were it not for the reality and severity of what has happened here tonight.
In conclusion, what you of Congress have done here the night of March 21, 2010 is a disgrace not just to the history of our faltering country, but also to the rule of law and ultimately to the American people. If you wish to treat our Constitution as just a piece of tissue than I will do the same to this crap that you call a bill. I vow that I will not pay any new taxes for it and I challenge the Federal government to force every other American citizen who shares my opinion and me to pay. I warn you though that should you do so you will be forcing the hand of the American people who stand firmly against the oppressive use of illegal power and there will be a price to pay for you.
I also conclude with a challenge for the American people. If you wish to stop this oppressive Federal government from further abuse of its power then you must educate yourself so that you know how they are breaking the law in order to strip you of your right. Read your Constitution and follow up by reading the Federalist Papers and the Anti-Federalist papers which explain the laws of our country and why the Framers of the Constitution wrote the document the way they did.
