The Health & Care of our Nation

I have written at great length about the anti-constitutional usurpation of power by the federal government over the past many years. In my, and many others’ opinion the federal government exceeds its constitutional authority to act and spend in the majority of what it does, aided and abetted by a usually complicit President and a sycophantic Supreme Court composed of blatant political appointees with rabid agendas. The notion that the Court is objective and removed from the vagaries of politics is absurd. The reach of the current federal government far exceeds anything conceived of by even those founding fathers with the most inclination to a strong centralized government. The bastardization of the Constitution, the trampling of the State’s rights and the abrogation of the People’s freedoms has of late reached epic proportions. The health care juggernaut currently consuming the Congress may well be the final straw to prophetically break the camel’s back. It is a truly sad and pathetic commentary on the state of politicians today when legitimate questions brought to them about the constitutional authority to act as they are is laughed off as being silly and lacking any seriousness while the questioners are derided and lampooned as simpletons and fools. This is how our public servants treat those who put them in office, pay their salaries and place their trust in them to do the right thing for the country. The world is truly turned upside down. In addition, to hear the contorted explanations of politicians (most lawyers) as to the purported constitutional authority to act merely affirms the pathetic level of constitutional legal education in our nation’s law schools. Or worse, they actually know the truth but think that they can bamboozle the ‘little people’ with byzantine explanations. Well, we will not be bamboozled! The Constitution was written in plain English; it is not that difficult for the common man to understand. And what the common man understands is that this federal government is acting outside and beyond its legal authority, taking and spending money it has no right to and destroying rights and liberties which come not from the government, but from God. The Constitution promises to protect these rights of the ‘common man’ from abuses of government, not protect the government from the will or wrath of the People. It is not the role of the federal government (whether through Congress, the President or the Supreme Court) to be the final dictator of what the Constitution says and means. These entities are created by the Constitution and thus lesser and subservient to it. They cannot rule on what it means and how it applies to them. That is reserved to the People acting through the States. The States, after all wrote the Constitution thereby creating the federal government to serve them and their respective citizens. That is why our country was originally referred to as the United States IN America, not OF America.
As to our current debate, the federal government has no constitutional role in providing for, insuring for or regulating health care. That is strictly a state-by-state issue. And yes, that would also apply to Medicare and Medicaid. That a Supreme Court ruled on their constitutionality only proves their criminal collusion. Programs such as Social Security and a federal minimum wage also fail the test, but that is a fight for another day. Arguments trotted out by our nefarious Congressional spokesmen about the General Welfare Clause of the Preamble, the fabulously abused Interstate Commerce Clause or the Necessary and Proper Clause are breathtaking only in the audacity of their being brought forth and they are convincing not in the least. As I mentioned earlier, such proclamations are either a testament to enormous intentional chutzpah or a symptom of the decline and fall of constitutional education in the law schools. At any rate, while the current Congress many ram through some health care bill, have this fascist buffoon of a so-called President sign it and no doubt the lackey Supreme Court will give it a false imprimatur of legality; the People and the States will ultimately have none of it. Mark these words, a movement is coming, based upon our founding principles as spelled out in the Declaration of Independence to turn back this tide of creeping federal cannibalism and restore the tenets of the Constitution to their rightful place. It will be a movement of the People and the States. We will once again make it clear that the Constitution means exactly what it says. It is not a living evolving document. It can only be changed by the proper amendment process. If Congress does not have the will to propose a Constitutional Amendment to take over the health care system, then it must leave hands off and let the States and the People see to it. We are on the precipice of becoming a nation, not of laws, but of men. In other words, tyranny which will rapidly devolve into anarchy. The Constitution is the only instrument which separates us from rule at the end of a gun barrel. Right now, the Constitution is barely hanging on by a frayed thread. If the federal government can do anything it wants to We the People simply by virtue of proclaiming that it can and will, without Constitutional restraint; then we are truly adrift on a tempest-tossed sea with no sail, no map and no rudder. The Republic is on the verge of collapse. If that be the case, then only God can help us. Let us pray that we soon come to our senses. God save the Constitution, God save the Republic and God bless America.
