  • i'm glad she is my senator

  • Cantwell explains in her speech the challenges facing Medicare in greater detail. It is the healthcare system itself that is going broke (constituting now some 17% GDP); and Medicare, being part of that system, will therefore fail as well. I'd suggest you watch again.

    The necessary and proper clause gives them this power, among other things. The jurisprudence regarding this area of Constitutional litigation is fairly extensive, so I implore you to learn more about it. Start with Wikipedia.

  • your statement is that Medicare is going broke. This is true.

    and that is just one small reason that I do not want the government taking over the healthcare system.

    to second that I would like to know where in the constitution it gives the authority to the government to do this. It is not there.

  • are you going to be a cosponsor with Bernie Sanders and Sen. Leahy on their Emergency Senior Citizens Relief Act?
