The Supreme court ruled that while Congress cannot make you get health insurance, you can be taxed more if you don't. Do you agree with their verdict?

Philo-ThisSpaceForRent 2012/06/28 16:43:27I disagree with the verdict.+35Completely unconstitutional. SCOTUS cannot institute a tax, neither can POTUS. Bad law, worse medicine. Welcome to the USSA, comrades!

The ultra-left in this country has found a way to further deprive us of our freedom, either by forcing us to purchase something against our will or by taking our money if we refuse. There are two main groups of people who will opt to pay the penalty rather than buy insurance. Conservatives, Tea Partiers, Libertarians and the like will not bend to this type of tyranny. So the money Leftists can’t get through union dues they can now get through draconian penalties while at the same time depriving many who are opposed to their ideology of the resources to fight against them. Then there are the ones who will pay the fine because it is cheaper than insurance. And when they need expensive healthcare they will simply buy insurance at that time (remember, no refusing coverage for pre-existing conditions). As I mentioned earlier, this will at once drive private insurers out of business while at the same time fund an inefficient, impersonal, one-size-fits-all, big government system.
So, what’s a country to do? Fortunately, our system is not totally broken (even though it may be broke). We can now set our sights on the coming elections in November. We can hope and pray and fight to bring our nation back to some semblance of sanity. We can pick up the ball that the US Supreme Court has so supremely dropped. We can shake off the bonds of tyranny by ousting those in Congress and the White House who would subjugate us rather than support our freedoms. We can raise our voices in outrage and indignation until this evil is repealed. We can turn this temporary setback into permanent good by finally waking up to our responsibilities as citizens of a free country and furiously fight for and tenaciously hold onto our liberties. And in the months and years to come, after the dust of this epic battle has long settled and our rights have once again been restored, we can remember what we almost lost. And we can vow to never, ever let ourselves come this close to the brink of destruction again. We can. Yes, we can.
Also, as of right now, there is nothing stopping anyone from going out and shopping for healthcare insurance, it's only the BS clauses that a lot of companies add in that prevent people from getting it.

You'll be paying higher taxes all right, because the super wealthy and corps won't, and you can't lay that on Obama, as much as you'd like to. Another great SCOTUS move.
-Now the government can force you to work out at a gym or pay a massive tax,
-Now the government can force you to eat foods they approve of or pay a massive tax.
-Now the government can tax you based on the out dated Body Mass Index if they think you are too fat. They now can force you to diet!
-Now the government can control what you grow in your backyard veggie garden.
-Now there is no end to what the government can do to you as long as they tax it.
Justice Roberts is a coward and a spineless weasel. He has just opened the door to even bigger government intrusion in your life and less individual liberty . He has now voted for the biggest judicial mistake made by the SCOTUS since Plessy v. Fergusson.
Enjoy the tax increase and the fact that the IRS is going to be a much more powerful agency to the point they will be the New Gestapo.
"Let's not be distracted by the breadth of the taxing power. The American people exert tremendous political power against taxing. Look at the Tea Party. A political price will be paid — both for the tax and the deceit about imposing a tax."

By making it clear that this is a tax, Roberts makes it clear that government can not do this under the Commerce Clause that liberals think apply to everything.
Romney on Romneycare: 'a model for the nation'
Welcome to Amerika!
The Supreme Court has Ordered us to live by NoBama's ideologies, now we need to demand the they and the government supply ours.
They better provide employment pay raised 30 percent so we can afford this damned health care. I'm a college graduate and companies don't hardly want to pay anything.
There are people with doctorate degrees now making $13 to $15 dollars an hour. WHAT THE HELL! And you're gonna tell us what to do with our money. please don't drive me to being an anarchist.
You see, the TAX mandate is not collectable or enforceable and the single biggest, least wanted tax to ever be created. 70% of Americans DON'T want the mandate and as a tax they will HATE IT.
The States don't have to comply with expansion. SO they will get their funding even when they refuse to expand medicare and medicade. There goes the ability to make States comply and kills the funding issue.
Thanks Justice Roberts, you just became my new hero.
This makes Romney a shoe in for POTUS.
The law itself didn't change due to the Supreme Court ruling.
The fact that the government and high court systems can impose laws against the people's wishes is what will compel them to go even further in their aggression towards us and the U.S. Constitution. When we cease to have power of self determination we are setting ourselves up for an undeterred dictatorship or socialist society where we have no stock in American/global going-ons, and our vote nor opinion matters.
I'm not interested in becoming a valueless minion.
My bad, idiots by intelligence scale actually have an IQ. Democrats do not.
Giving more tax dollars to politicians is them same as giving a junkie more heroin.
