New strategy to stop Obamacare

http://www.wnd.com/2013/10/new-strategy-to-stop-obamacare/

Sen Rand Paul, R-Ky., is trying another approach to protect the public from Obamacare – changing the Constitution.

The senator has introduced a constitutional amendment that would prevent Congress from passing laws that do not apply to lawmakers, the president and the Supreme Court.

The language of the bill itself is notably simple.

Section 1 reads: Congress shall make no law applicable to a citizen of the United States that is not equally applicable to Congress.

Section 2 would make all laws applicable to the executive branch and section 3 would make all laws applicable to the Supreme Court, making sure all three branches of the federal government are included.

Supporters of the bill say it seems politically shrewd, as it may be difficult for lawmakers to explain why a law is good for ordinary Americans but not for them.

But, there is another reason that inspired Paul to draft the bill, and to include the Supreme Court, especially, Chief Justice John Roberts, who cast the deciding vote upholding Obamacare.

“My amendment says basically that everybody including Justice Roberts – who seems to be such a fan of Obamacare – gets it, too,” Paul told the Daily Caller last month.

“See, right now, Justice Roberts is still continuing to have federal employee health insurance subsidized by the taxpayer. And if he likes Obamacare so much, I’m going to give him an amendment that gives Obamacare to Justice Roberts.”

  • Some say it is a data mining project to get to your checking account quickly to empty it as fast as they can when banks decide they want your money. I also feel it is a distraction just like the shutdown. Which tells me we are very close to something happening. With the debt clock being shut down for 100 days we don't even know how much the gov. has or doesn't have. Millions of people running around with their insurance cancelled creates a lot of anger and they do seem to want that. 

  • And this report that the cost for the monstrosity has topped 1 billion dollars makes me furious.

    It is almost like this is a setup to distract us from something more sinister.

  • Yes, non compliance is the answer.

    We cannot be sheep and just take what they try to shove down our throats.

  • I think that non compliance is the only thing that will stop it. Ocare has not even been put into operation and it is destroying this country from the inside out.

  • As long as they are the ones voting on it, it will never pass.

  • I don't know, but at least he's trying.  I don't know if it can go retroactively, but at least it forces our "gods" back down to earth.
