  • Not even close. Herbert Hoover was a Keynesian and Dick Cheney is a War Monger; that doesn't fit anywhere near a Constitutionalist wanting to bring all the troops home and stop policing the world.

  • Amendment X:

    "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people."

    This is what gives the states power to require health insurance.

    Article I, Section 1:

    "All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives."

    This is what limits Congress.

    In Peter's next video he covers this.

  • nice vid man....you seem to know what ur on about

  • Healthcare falls comfortably within the authority to spend 'for the general welfare.'

  • @ladivadivala Yeah great point, cause dropping the hydrogen bomb was 'killing for it's own interets'. Lol

  • @theslimeylimey I think it is amazing how this country is always portrayed as saving instead of actually killing for it's own interests. Which country is still the only country to have dropped the hydrogen bomb on another country?

  • We have heard about trickle down, ever considered trickle up? Rather than paying banks, give taxpayers back our money, tax free. We paid it in. Some will blow it on t.v.'s and junk. Most will pay mortgage and past bills. WOW. Funny, banks get stimulus, an not though bailout already paid...."Must be stupid"....banks and insurance are chokeing us. Its not privilage to drive our own roads, its our right, we already own them...show me recieptsinsurance companies paid for road and bridge tax

  • accrued money and deferring hell! All well said in my opinion

    one other issue is the separation of common law to natural law. I think it's blended in this bill.

    so they can use common law to make me buy car insurance maybe (although questionable)

    but they can't make me buy insurance to live. it is a "God given right"

    also what about religions that do not use western medicine?

    natural law usurps common law or at least it did once

    thanks 5*s!

  • I didn't get this reply earlier, so I'll respond now. What Bush has said to N.Korea is irrelevant-as I'm referring to action and most everyone thought Bush an ignoramus toward the end of his reign. As far as Nukes to our ports go-anything is possible but the moment it was done Iran would be a very deep dark hole in the ground,nothing more. You yourself stated they want it for defense reasons-which I agree with. If the world moves on with N.Korea as a nuclear power it can live with Iran too.

  • @Nickel I think Iran only really wants nukes for self protection from a US lead or sponsored invasion and don't intend to use them offensively. Iran's leadership doesn't exactly instill a sense of calm responsible rational thinking though.

  • @Nickel- Didn't Bush include N Korea in his axis of evil? That is about as thinly veiled as it gets. I was against the Iraq invasion from day one and I'm against military intervention in Iran at this point too for the same reason (not a threat). I'm not sure what sort of delivery system Iran would need for a nuke to cause serious damage but I think a nuke in a shipping container detonated at a major port would be messy.

  • @theslimeylimey You assume rational people are making rational decisions on that basis...something our gov't routinely fails to do in even the most simple of circumstances. I can't think of one government right now that could come close to matching (or even want to try) the military might of the US....so this scenario of bombing other countries EVEN if they want and are developing a nuke is absurd. I say let Iran have a nuke, who cares. N. Korea has them and it's not doing them any good.
