Got that right

This week's
Supreme Court ruling on Obamacare was a disappointment and a blow to our freedoms.
As we get farther away from the ruling, reality will dawn on people, and
we will be right back to where we were. The American people did not want or
approve of Obamacare then, and they do not now. Americans oppose it because it
will decrease the quality of health care in America, raise taxes, cut Medicare,
and break the bank.
The Court should have protected our
constitutional freedoms, but remember, it was the President that forced this law
on us. I congratulate the Supreme Court on one thing – they were far more
honest about Obamacare than President Obama was. They rightly have called it
what it is – a tax.
The truly frightening part about the ruling is
the Court's declaration that President Obama can use the federal government to use
their powers of taxation to compel behavior. What's next? Taxes on people
who refuse to drive Chevy Volts or eat tofu? This is ridiculous.
Here
is the big picture situation in America today. Success used to be measured by how
many people we could get off the government dole, but now, under President Obama,
we measure success by how many people we can get on government programs. Indeed,
food stamp rolls have increased by 70 percent since 2007.
There used to be
a stigma to relying on the government, but now it's celebrated. We have it 100
percent backwards in America today. We should celebrate people getting off
of food stamps, off of Medicaid, and off of government health care.
The
bottom line is that Obamacare eats into the spirit of independence that made
America great in the first place, and if we don't repeal it soon, we will have
more people riding in the cart than pulling the cart.
I have vowed not to
implement Obamacare in Louisiana, because this November we're going to elect a new
President and a new Congress who will repeal and replace the terrible law.
If you are small business owner, a middle-class taxpayer, or if you are
worried about what Obamacare will do to the quality of your health care –
you have only one option – make President Obama a one-termer.
Sincerely,
Governor Bobby Jindal
