The reason for that "levying"s existence is unconstitutional to begin with.

Not buying something isn't commerce.

Therefore the commerce clause does not hold weight.

Yes, out here in reality we call that the health care coverage penalty. Note the Individuals without acceptable health care coverage heading. So, I ask again. Is EVERYONE in LA without insurance? A simple, you were right saveliberty or white flag is acceptable. Otherwise I'll just take the kill shot.

Read your own sources, or just appear ignorant. It is a penalty collected by the IRS. Stay in denial and deflect all you want. The only people who will pay this are those without insurance. I have asked you a direct questio twice and you fail to answer because you know I'm right. You owe USMB $5 for taking up valuable space for no good reason.

I tend to agree. Don't think the Govt can force anyone to buy health insurance.

Will be interesting to see how the SC views this because thats just where its headed.

Spidey... why don't you tell us how much in federal income taxes you paid to the govt last year? Not asking for exact figure... just ballpark.

I didn't know the income tax was something you volunteered for.

That's your opinion and your opinion is not relevant.

OK Justice Oscar Wao, whatever you say.

The actual law itself doesn't qualify as a credible source?

You first.

 

[Nonelitist]

Spidey... why don't you tell us how much in federal income taxes you paid to the govt last year? Not asking for exact figure... just ballpark.

You first.

Sure... no problem.

I paid between 17,000 and 20,000 in taxes.

Now your turn.

I think we paid $6,000 or so.

I hope those of you who are against this insurance mandate realize that's only in there because the insurance companies lobbied heavily to get put in there. Obama didn't want this, in fact originally he wanted to get rid of the insurance company involvement all-together through a single-payer system. But nope, repubs didn't want that either.

Face it, you'll complain no matter what Obama does.

Those pesky Republicans, it's almost like they don't like Socialism no matter how you slice it. Damn, what will it take for them to start supporting a Socialist agenda?

I KNOW! How about a re-education camp? That oughta do it!

That's not at all true - most of them love driving their big fat SUV's down roads paid for with the People's money.

House votes to nullify federal health insurance mandate in Louisiana | NOLA.com

will be awesome to see where this goes and how hard the federal government tries to crack down on an indiviudual state

What fucking morons. They apparently haven't even read the damn Constitution. You can't just opt out of paying federal taxes. As Louisiana resident, these idiots shamed me.

LA will have to get in line behind Virginia. We were the first to call Bullshit on this pathetic excuse for a law. And there are 15 more states getting ready to do the same.

You cannot FORCE citizens to buy something. Unconstitutional. Apparently you can read either.

Blather.

I'll spot you the roads, you give me everything else. I'll bet I can close 75 agencies and sub agencies of the Federal Government and never touch roads.

You can FORCE them to pay tax on their income, says so in the damn 16th amendment. I dunno what makes you think the state of Virginia or Louisiana is going to be able to stop the IRS from garnishing bank accounts or income. Once the IRS finds you, they have very efficient means of taking what you owe.

The city of lafayette, Louisiana owns the water, sewer, trash, electric company, power plant, and internet service (1/3 of which is fiber optic and expanding to the rest of the city.)

They also voted 65% for McCain in 2008.

Figure that one out.

You are the first rightie ever to admit that the roads are a socialist aspect of our government.

That has nothing to do with it. The law says you must buy insurance or pay a fine. It doesn't call it a tax, it calls it a fine. The enforcement mechanism is beside the point. If you have to pay a fine, that's a penalty, therefore the government intends to FORCE the population to purchase something. UNCONSTITUTIONAL period.

I won't attempt to understand LA, they have parishes and Napoleonic law. Baffling.

Every enterprise government takes on is socialist, by definition. I think they need to do less taking on because they are rarely (almost never) good at running anything and that's a waste of my money.
