This isnt snark.
If one state can be allowed to uphold the laws of another state.... curious, ya know?
I dont know where youre going with the sentence fragment. What about "upholding the laws of another state"? And wherever youre going with it, be careful to distinguish between "upholding", "recognizing", and "reciprocity".
Ever hear of the phrase "Careful What You Wish For". It applies in this court case....
What your asking for, is not really what you'll get in the end. Because the thing at the end, is not often the thing you thought you were going to get.
You're damned right you should be careful what you ask for. A few years ago a lot of people, myself included, were screaming at republicans, Bush, congress in general over the Patriot Act. Shit ran every day on the news about it. Now, it barely gets mention when it comes up for re-approval.
I told my brother then, who was a big Bush supporter, fight every damned attempt to whittle away at rights, at government forcing itself upon you, because once it's done, you can never go back, and the place you start is only the doorway. Giving Congress the power to force you to buy something is just stupid. The issue isn't just right now, it's 20 years down the road when it is an acceptable practice.
Its like I told my brother, look past Bush. Look at the next dickhead who would be president because sooner or later, he's not going to be on your side.
I'm all for reforming health care. It is past time that we did. I'm not jumping on any boat however that gives politicians more control over my life and those who come after. The shitty things that will be written about this time in history is that this is a time when people were either afraid enough or politically polarized enough to forget millions of people have died to put you in this spot. And you're going to go along with it for politics?
And that's exactly what it is. There is no difference in this bs than there was with Republicans standing behind Bush on the Patriot act.
This makes sense to me
"...The majority of the panel said they couldn’t uphold the mandate because there would be no limit to Congress’s powers if they did.
We have not found any generally applicable, judicially enforceable limiting principle that would permit us to uphold the mandate without obliterating the boundaries inherent in the system of enumerated congressional powers,” Dubina and Hull wrote. “'Uniqueness’ is not a constitutional principle in any antecedent Supreme Court decision."
Which brings to mind another question, where are all the liberals who I stood beside in condemning republicans and the Patriot act now that Obama is in office. Cuz another extension just went through a few months ago, and you fucks were notably absent.
That's politics. It's not true outrage.
And yet courts have no problems forcing a certain group to perform services without any guarantee of payment.

Dont judge me because I sin differently than you.
If you want it sugar coated, dont ask me what i think! It would violate TOS.
