John Cornyn Zitate

The Supreme Court has never ruled that Congress can use the Commerce Clause to require individuals to engage in an activity they have chosen to avoid. Yet that is precisely what Obamacare does: It forces Americans without health insurance to purchase coverage. Such a requirement is unprecedented and unconstitutional.

Der Oberste Gerichtshof hat nie entschieden, dass der Kongress die Handelsklausel verwenden kann, um Einzelpersonen zu verpflichten, sich an einer Aktivität zu beteiligen, die sie vermeiden wollten. Aber genau das tut Obamacare: Es zwingt Amerikaner ohne Krankenversicherung, eine Versicherung abzuschließen. Ein solches Erfordernis ist beispiellos und verfassungswidrig.

Conservatives shouldn't count on the Supreme Court to do our work for us on Obamacare. The Court may rule as it should, and strike down the mandate. But it may not. And even if it does, the future of health care in America - and for that matter, the future of limited government - depends ultimately on the verdict of the American people.

If Obamacare is allowed to stand - and Congress is allowed to make the purchase of government-endorsed health insurance compulsory - there will be no meaningful limit on Washington's reach into the lives of the American people. That is certainly not what the Founders intended.

Before Medicare, nearly half of American seniors were forced to go without coverage because insurance companies were reluctant to insure them - making the chances of having health insurance as a senior the same as getting tails on a coin flip.
