"All of a sudden, we have this law which really is not Constitutional, being imposed on all the states. Our once fine healthcare system is out the window - replaced by the high cost, low service ObamaCare mandate."
Nullification = "State nullification is the idea that states can and must refuse to enforce federal unconstitutional laws". How is that for a barn burner. It has never been tried in our history. Maybe it is time to do so. Jefferson came up with this idea. Way back then, his mind reached far forward. He could foresee a time such as this. It was the check valve, the safety feature, to keep an overreaching federal government from imposing such an overreach.
Today, we are seeing a perfect example of when that card should be played. In Minnesota, in particular. We had a pretty good health care system (thank you), until someone decided to throw a monkey wrench in the gear box. And that wrench was called ObamaCare. All of a sudden, we have this law which really is not Constitutional, being imposed on the states. Our once fine healthcare system is out the window - replaced by the high cost, low service ObamaCare mandate.
Our weak kneed, semi-coherent Governor, rather than calling the federal government on this ruse, wants the fine taxpayers of Minnesota to cough up about a third of a billion dollars for a band aid fix. Everyone knows what is wrong with ObamaCare - and it cannot be fixed. That is, unless there is major surgery. And major surgery will be like cosmetic surgery, as the Affordable Health Care Bill which comes out of surgery will look and act NOTHING like the one Obama and Pelosi put together.
My good friend Jack Rogers called a local radio station yesterday and mentioned nullification. Jack wants the Speaker of the House to push nullification on the Governor. We don't want an expensive fix like the Governor wants. That fix in the long run will fix nothing. Yet, we don't want the good people of Minnesota to suffer under this "cluster" of a program. What should we do? ObamaCare and MNSure in Minnesota should be killed immediately and our old system reinstated. Period.
Is there a fly in the ointment? You bet there is. We have a wussy for a Governor. He is a boot licker for the President. He would NEVER stand up to Obama on items such as ObamaCare or abortion. Dayton thinks nullification is a four letter word. Well it is not Governor. Most of us liberty lovers believe that nullification is a seven letter word. Words like LIBERTY or FREEDOM. Get the picture? The rest of us out here sure do.
