calfoxwc Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Great news so far. They never included any legal ability to take parts of it out. That means the whole thing goes, unless ruled differently by a higher court. Big win for US ! **************************** Federal Judge Rules Obamacare Unconstitutional A U.S. district judge ruled Monday that the health care law was unconstitutional because it violated the Commerce Clause. Judge Roger Vinson said as a result of the unconstitutionality of the "individual mandate" that requires people to buy insurance; the entire law must be thrown out. “The Plaintiffs in this case represent more than half the state so this case (in Pensacola) has more prominence than some of the two dozen lawsuits filed in federal court over the health care law. This will ultimately make its way to higher courts,” Sean said. “Eventually it’ll end up in the Supreme Court. But this is why it was so important that all these states got involved in this. This is a very good sign.” You can read the text of the entire ruling by clicking here. For more on this developing story please click here.

Pumpkin Eater Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Hey, we knew it was unconstitutional. In the US, you can't force someone to buy something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
