Can someone show me where the Constitution says I must pay for someone else's healthcare.

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Why? You act like people shouldn't have to pay for health care.

He's a closet communist addled by dementia.

Ok cut that price to under $200 per month. Thats reality. Zero deductibles. Zero. Make that happen or no go.

You can make that happen. Start an insurance company with those policies.

Since Schumer is holding America hostage to get Americans to pay for healthcare for illegals and those who won't pay for it themselves, can someone show the class where the Constitution says that is a power the Feds have?

Don't bring the "general welfare" bullshit, cuz making one person pay for something for another isn't general welfare.

So my taxes pay for many things I don't like. But healthcare for people that are working here in the US is hardly wasted money. And you are the one that is totally full of bullshit. Of the 32 wealthy nations, the US is the only one without universal healthcare. And we pay the most per citizen, and lag way behind in health and longevity. People like you kiss the ass of the healthcare billionaires even as they shit in your face.

It will be found in the penumbra clauses.

A farmer once told Davey Crocket about giving away others people's money.

I FF the story since most of us can't handle long videos.

 

[citygator]

The law can say you can’t be denied healthcare or whatever else your little heart desires.

Now you just have to find someone to give it to you.

Fine. The subject of this thread was ridiculous. You make a fine argument. No issues. But to start a thread based on the constitutionality of healthcare is something only a dumbass would do.

 

[citygator]

It’s right there in your post, dumbass.

You must have been dropped in your head a lot as a kid.

You need some mental help. I am not congress. The first amendment doesnt apply to interactions between you and me. This explains why so many of your posts are ignorant… you are ignorant. LOL. 2+2=4

Well, before someone brings it up and tries to challenge you on this, there are actually 2 areas this is repeated. The preamble and then in A1S8 where it actually does say "provide" for the general welfare, but its not meant as a catch all for the government giving anything to the people other than whats listed in the 18 delegated powers

IIRC, Preamble is where it says "promote".
A1S8 is "provide for the common Defence and General Welfare of the United States;"

Seems we have a contradiction or conflict in duties and authorities, along with methods to perform such.

 

[Zincwarrior]

Nothing in the Constitution about an Air Force, Space Force, NASA, Dept of Agriculture, Energy, Social Security, Medicare, Air Traffic Control, etc.

find ways to make Healthcare cheaper?

I doubt doctors and nurses, etc. will want to take major pay cuts. Also not sure if I want to be treated by someone who is the cheapest.

Reminds me of the astronaut who quipped how reassuring it was riding into space in a vehicle produced by the lowest bidder.

We are confusing health insurance and healthcare(treatment) here. Might start where one doesn't have a "Right" to the most expensive procedures just because such exists.
Might also need to be prorated based upon how healthy a lifestyle one had.

If you are overweight, don't exercise, use tobacco and alcohol to excess, don't consume healthy nutrition, etc.; don't see why I and your fellow citizens should have to pay towards your medical care expenses.

Health insurance needs to be structured similar to auto/driver insurance.

 

[Stryder50]

Nothing in the Constitution about an Air Force, Space Force, NASA, Dept of Agriculture, Energy, Social Security, Medicare, Air Traffic Control, etc.

Not specifically in those words, but implied in obligations in other areas, such as common defence for Air Force, Space Force, Marines. Others may be implied in the Amendments.

 

[candycorn]

Improvise, adapt, overcome.

So your solution is to quote lines from a b-rate movie?

 

[candycorn]

It exposes how the nation--the United States--is too juvenile a culture to admit that capitalism isn't a one-size-fits-all solution for every sector of the economy. If commercial interest are not the "winner" in a scenario, capitalism fails. You see this in healthcare to where the "winner" is Jane Doe returned to stasis where she can resume the activities of daily living.

We could have put some of the best minds in the nation into a room and let them come up with a plan to where entities like healthcare, public utilities, and the local press could be funded without being expected to turn a profit. But that ship has long since sailed and I doubt we're going to get anther bite at that apple.

You are too stupid to grasp the subject of the thread. Nowhere did I question the “Constitutionality of healthcare”, you lying sack of shit.

I asked you to show where in the Constitution it says you have the right to take my money to pay for your healthcare.

Got anything?

I didn’t bring up Congress, Stupid.

Can you read English?

 

[HikerGuy83]

Actual text, quote: "promote the general Welfare"

Note the term is "promote"*, not "provide".

* Could also mean "not prevent" ...

Welfare meant the general condition in broad application, per dictionary of that time, not the guv'mint interpretation and policies of the Present.

Madison wrote a letter explaining that this had specific application to the enumerated powers of the federal government. It was not an open checkbook to give away goodies.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

The Marines are a part of the Navy. They woud say the Men's Department, but they are often wrong and eat crayons.

 

[Nostra]

Actually, national defense is one of the few things mentioned. No reason the rest could not be privatized.

Next?

 

[Nostra]

Can you show me where it says you don't?

It doesn’t specifically mention healthcare, so it is left to the states, or the people. The Constitution limits on the Federal government, not the people.

Now, try to answer the question in the OP without another pathetic dodge.
