One of the key components of the Eugenics based Obamacare laws is the personal mandate. This mandate forces individual Americans to buy health insurance. This would be the first time that the federal government forces American citizens to buy a product. Many states are now suing the Federal government over this mandate. One of Obama’s selling points was that there will be no tax increase for those making under 200,000 with Obamacare. He lied because the Justice Department is now fighting back against these lawsuits on the grounds that the mandates are Taxes!
In order to protect the new national health care law from legal challenges, the Obama administration has been forced to argue that the individual mandate represents a tax — even though Obama himself argued the exact opposite while campaigning to pass the legislation.
Late last night, the Obama Department of Justice filed a motion to dismiss the Florida-based lawsuit against the health care law, arguing that the court lacks jurisdiction and that the State of Florida and fellow plaintiffs haven’t presented a claim for which the court can grant relief. To bolster its case, the DOJ cited the Anti-Injunction Act, which restricts courts from interfering with the government’s ability to collect taxes.

News Update: Obama is now calling on G-20 Governments to keep spending money! Clearly he wants to collapse the Global system because that will be the end result of this accumalation of debt. This is the Cloward-Piven strategy on a global scale.
Washington – US President Barack Obama urged other world powers to keep up public spending levels or risk eroding the global economic recovery , in a letter to other Group of 20 (G20) leaders obtained by the German Press Agency dpa Thursday. With many European governments saddled by debt and announcing major austerity plans, Obama warned that the world’s recovery from a deep recession last year remained extremely fragile.
‘We worked exceptionally hard to restore growth; we cannot let it falter or lose strength now,’ Obama warned in the letter.
Of it is a tax. Aren’t “collections” being handled by the IRS?
PIMF! Of course it is a tax.
Barack Insane Obama, ummm ummm ummm.

Obama seems to have read Nouriel Roubini’s book “Crisis Economics” -- and, as usual, has adopted its very worst idea. (It’s a good book otherwise, as far as I can tell.)
Roubini suggests that China ought to be encouraging domestic consumption. As some of you know, I was born English, and apart from our demonstrated ability to, um, hold Algeria to a 0-0 tie we do have additional experience in encouraging China to increase domestic consumption. This was known as the Opium War and it is not considered a high point in British history.
It’s a dumb idea for the simple reason that it’s not our @#$% place to be telling other nations what to do internally, especially if what they’re doing internally is something we should be doing internally ourselves.
The real kicker comes in a couple of years when people suddenly realize that contrary to Obama’s promises they will lose their private/employer-paid health insurance. It is only a matter of time. The program is set up to slowly strangle private insurance until the people scream for a public option. It is ingeneous, if you happen to be turned that way. That is one reason that I say Obama is (pretty much) getting exactly what he wants with everything. It took some wringing, but he got ObamaCare. That is more damage than Clinton was able to rack up in his two terms. He’s destroying our foreign policy, losing a war, and now fucking up the entire Gulf of Mexico. Quite the wins, for someone who’s goal is the destruction of this country.

Earlier this week I received a call from the VA that I might have colo-rectal cancer, coupled with the downhill standards of care visible through the VA system since January 2009, and with the possibility I might have to spend all my available money to pay for health-care insurance to pay for less care than I used to receive for free, I am less than a happy camper.
One good thing is I will get to use the new government diet plan; no money for food.
Everywhere you look and see gov. trying to manage and control, you see failure. You see waste. You see bungling. You see graft and fraud. There is no way in hell we are going to get proper medical care from the gov.
In fact, I think zero sees his Hell Care plan as a way to actually punish Americans. He is out to even the score with us down right mean people. Make us pay for all our past wrongs. i really did not like the way he read, with such intense passion, that fcked up rev. wright quote.

One big problem I see is private use and cartels will continue to grow their own.There goes the tax revenue and crime will still flourish. Its not like good liquor beer or wine, which isn’t likely to come out of your back yard or someone elses field.

When things are illegal, it guarantees violence will follow. The only means you have of contract enforcement are illegal, i.e. violence. Competition for territory can’t rely on legit means, so competition turns violent as well. In the ’30s you had rum-runners shooting each other up with Thompson submachineguns over territory and the like. Ever heard of the Bud delivery truck driver shooting at the Coors guy? What about people wasting each other over coke? The drug war has been going on all of my life, and it has been a spectacular failure, while the drug runners just keep raking in the dough and expanding their business. When will we decide to try another direction?
