The health care case in SCOTUS heated up yesterday as the justices heard arguments about specifics of the law itself. And, according to Fox News online, the government's taking a "middle ground" position regarding the individual mandate contained in the bill, saying that "if it's struck down - something it doesn't think should happen- then the two major parts of the law that are directly tied to the mandate would also have to go down. But it says the rest of the law should remain in force."
The parts that would fall, however, are the provisions instructing insurers to extend coverage to all people regardless of medical history and to offer affordable premiums regardless of risk. And it's these issues that are the very expensive benefits that "could not exist without the mandate's forced inclusion of additional (mostly healthy) customers who'll collectively cover the added costs."
As for me, in reading the last sentence above, I think it concisely states the problem with the whole health care law in the first place, because it illustrates clearly that the administration's goal is communism, pure and simple. And if this law's upheld it sets the stage for who knows what else? We've already seen what a world-wide debacle occurs when government decides that everyone's entitled to a mortgage, whether they have a dime in the bank or not or even a job. So, what's next?
I also now think I understand why Nancy Pelosi said she didn't read the bill before it was passed. Because even though I don't believe she's a candidate for Mensa, or even Ding Dong School, she's politically quite astute. Which says to me that she probably had somebody read the legislation to her beforehand. And when she realized what a disaster is was likely going to be, since she was forced to go along as Democrat Speaker of the House, it was better for her to look like an irresponsible dunce than a third world dictator to her constituents.
But no matter what the court's conclusion to this case is, it seems that the administration's got real problems. Because if the government wins the whole world now knows how far left it is and that it needs to be stopped, however, if it loses free enterprise comes out on top which is what our nation is all about. So, either way it looks like these guys in office are dead in the water.
That's it for today folks.
Adios
