Forum: General Topic: Question about healthcare..... Author Message southernyankee #7 posted November 11, 2009 at 9:00pm (EST)   "He'll never succeed. The people are fed up with him, and you young'uns who essentially elected that fool are going to pay the price if his healthcare bill gets passed without major revisions" Thats the key phrase right there. Without major revisions. At some point, people will realize the impracticality of some of the bill's provisions (after the bill had been passed) and quietly pass another bill scaling back some of the previous provisions. Same thing what happened to welfare, which Clinton (ironically a Democrat) scaled back, after realizing that too many people were talking advantage of it. southernyankee #8 posted November 11, 2009 at 4:00pm (EST)   "The Constitutio only allows the federal government authority in 17 areas. Healthcare, income taxes, and the thousand's of other laws enacted through-out history are not legal." Sorry, but it doesn't work that way. The Constitution allows for amendments to be passed, provided that 75% of Congress agrees with the change. Its there in black and white. And there was an amendment passed allowing for the federal income tax. Thats pretty much the law, and its settled. Also, there's plenty of precedent for Congress to fund government programs like welfare, healthcare, etc. Again, thats the law, and thats that. Now, granted I don't agree with the healthcare bill that is about to pass, but its not illegal or unconstitutional. That argument won't get you very far. southernyankee #9 posted November 11, 2009 at 1:33pm (EST)   To be honest, nobody knows what the bill will do. Because of unintended consequences (which happen in every piece of legislation, mind you), once they bill passes the government will have to pass more bills to compensate for the unintended consequences of this bill. And then they will have to make more laws to undo the untended consequences of the bill passed to solve the original unintended consequences, and so on. Bottom line, this bill will cost taxpayers in exchange for having better healthcare. You either take the in the bad with the good, or you don't bother at all.
