SCOTUS Ruling - ObamaCare

Well the ruling is in and the SCOTUS upheld ObamaCare. I am actually too annoyed right now to comment in much detail, but here are my initial thoughts:

  • In concept, having the government come up with a plan to cover more Americans, I am generally in favor with (THIS IS NOT OBAMACARE)
  • No one in the US has any clue how expensive and financially ruinous this will be to our budget. Everything is puppy dogs and ice cream cones until the bill comes in
  • Mandating people what they need to buy with regards to healthcare is such a massive overstep
  • Has anyone seen the budgets of Europe who have government-run healthcare? Oh yeah, they are doing really well
  • As much as it sounds great for the government to help everyone out, the government's job is not to run every aspect of our lives.

Health care needed reforming, but this decision will mark a day in American history where we ceded control of our future to even more debt and being less powerful.....
