the argument for this is lame.....inactivity is activity because someday most everyone uses healthcare and some cannot afford it.......okay then suppose the govt were to mandate every citizen carry a gun because everyone is subject to the protections of the police and in this way we could substantial reduce the size of police agencies across the country by reducing to pool of victims.....there is no precedent for this and as i stated before if the commerce clause can be used to compel one to buy ins than there exists no limits to what govt can compel the citizens to do.....

The problem is that there is SCOTUS precedent that could be used to rule in favor of this communist piece of legislation. 

Will the Court look to our Founders, or will they look to the FDR socialists who changed our government without our permission?

Obama knew that putting the Clinton Crat Kagan in that it with SCOTUS that it would go down to the wire anyways. Funny that a Kennedy will have the decision resting with him.
