As I understand, Idaho has already passed a law essentially telling the Attorney General to sue to block the portion of the bill that requires people to buy health insurance. If this bill is passed, I would expect other states to follow suit, if they have not already, as this bill will face further financial burdens on states who already struggling to pay their bills as it is. <br /><br />The problem with this is I don't expect law suits to be successful in blocking the implementation of this monstrosity of a bill. After law suits fail, what options are left? The only thing I can think of is succession. The last time this was tried Abraham Lincoln sent the military to hold the Union together and we had a Civil War as a result. <br /><br />Clearly we can't afford this bill and it will only make the health care system worse. As such, it must be stopped by what ever means are necessary. Should states secede from the Union in order to avoid destroying themsleves because of this bill do you think Mr. Obama would send the military to keep these states in the Union? Do you think the military would fire on the citizens of these states in order to keep them in the Union? I think it is entirely possible that the military would side with the states. Who would side with Mr. Obama at this point? <br /><br />I think I'm beginning to see why he wants a defense force to monitor American citizens that is as well funded as the military is. He seems to be using a third world dictator model where the military and police forces routinely fire on civilians who aren't cooperative.<br /><br />Finally, if this passes using the various hook or crook methods like the Slaughter solution, I think this may be the end of Democracy as we know it in America. Once the preceent is set, I think it is going to be difficult to undo it, a bit like "getting tooth paste back in the tube." In other words devious methods like this will be used in the future.B.Posternoreply@blogger.com
