Your RIGHT to Health Insurance

Democrat leadership in Congress and Leftists among us believe, "Health Care is a right".
They believe in a multitude of Constitutionally protected rights that simply are not. They believe in a right to food, a right to housing, a right to a job, and a right to transportation to and from that job. They assert that we have a right to love and a right to travel.They even believe in a right to an abortion paid for by those who oppose abortion on demand. I agree we have those rights (all but the last)... so go get them for yourself! Those rights are natural rights given by God whether you believe in him or not! They are akin to the right to breathe and the right to speak. They are born from the same law giver who gave our hearts the right to beat and our eyes the right to blink. They were NOT given to us by Congress!
These rights are common to all men (except those who live in oppression) and are not granted by any man so that man may take them back. Yet when the Left uses legislative power to establish any of those rights they then give arbitrary control over said rights to the government. Do you think this new government take over of the Health Insurance industry will some how give you control over your 'Right' to health care? They will tell you which plans you must have, they will reduce Medicare pay to doctors, so-as to force doctors to drop more Medicare clients and force them on to the government plan too. They will now send 18,000 new IRS agents out to stalk and fine businesses and individuals (that's you) thousands of dollars for not having complied with their mandate. Does this sound like you are in control?

The US Constitution does not give Congress the right to force you to buy insurance! They can't force you to buy a car either, especially GM or Chrysler. If (when) they take over the candy bar industry they can't force you to buy a candy bar either, much less force you to buy THEIR candy bar. They claim that under the Commerce Clause of the Constitution they have the right to regulate insurance. In the 'Powers of Congress' section Article I, Section 8, Clause 3 of the Constitution it is stated plainly, "[The Congress shall have power] To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian tribes;". There is NO way to interpret that to mean Congress can force you and I to purchase Government approved and soon government owned health Insurance. I'm sorry but it just does not fly! The clause gives Congress power to regulate 'industry' not force participation in it. (e.g.) Congress can regulate the sale of cows between states, they can (and do) overtax cattle ranchers and dealers when they trade across state lines but they can't tax me for not selling cattle! Nor can they penalize me for not buying insurance based on a right that doesn't exist! Besides, if I can't buy insurance accross state lines how can they count it as being interstate commerce??
What was done on Sunday was a rape of our Constitution; an all out assault on our liberty. Just another giant leap toward anarchy that leads to tyranny. Weaker men may buckle under this but we will not! I will join with you my fellow American. Together we will wrest the reins back from this government that seeks to rule us. We will not submit as this great Republic is strangled by a tyrannical government.
At the time of my writing this, 12 state Attorneys General (such as Texas' Gregg Abbott) have drafted suits to challenge the constitutionality of this bill. Hundreds of lawsuits have been filed and people are waking up around the country. Hopefully we can kill this thing before they can hit us with the bulk of taxes, fines and penalties set to begin immediately, while benefits (so called) don't kick in until 2014. When we are done defeating the bill we will begin voting out these liars and thieves! We must return the government to it's rightful place of representation rather than dictation. Soon we will reclaim control of our money, health care, our family and our dignity!
