I'm afraid Justice Roberts flung open the door for Congress to force citizens to do almost anything under penalty of a prohibitive tax. The long term implications of this decision are going to haunt us for decades if not centuries. The Supreme Court, the final protector of the Constitution, has opened a big crack in that document to the detriment of the people. I don't believe Roberts realizes what he has done today. Forget the damage done by upholding ObamaCare. The damage from this decision will go far beyond this piece of legislation.
"Let's talk about Roberts. I'm going to tell you something that you're not going to hear anywhere else, that you must pay attention to. It's well known that Roberts, unfortunately for him, has suffered from epileptic seizures. Therefore he has been on medication. Therefore neurologists will tell you that medication used for seizure disorders, such as epilepsy, can introduce mental slowing, forgetfulness and other cognitive problems. And if you look at Roberts' writings you can the cognitive disassociation in what he is saying," Michael Savage said on his radio program this evening.
Comrade, that is a racist statement. You must pony up the Racism Tax forthwith, lest ye be tossed in yon slammer! I see this is your third offense and you have a lifetime of failure to pay Your Fair Share. As a Winner in Life's Lottery, you have shirked your duty to help those Less Fortunate. Therefore the Racism Tax is increased one thousand fold. I see from our records that you do not have the money to pay the fine you owe. Your house has just been siezed. Congratulations! You are now Homeless and entitled to a wonderful room in the projects! I see that it even has a mini fridge and recently had hot water, you lucky dog!
I don't understand what the fuss is about. Soon we will have free health care provided to us by the generous federal government. Eventually the wonderful federal bureaucracy will provide all that we require and we can live happy, stress free lives knowing that our every need and want is carefully monitored for our maximum happiness. You would be wise to remember that the Internet remembers all. I want it on record that I strongly support the federal government and that it can do a much better job of taking care of us than we can.
âThe Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness: only power, pure power. What pure power means you will understand presently. We are different from all the oligarchies of the past, in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites. The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives. They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just round the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal. We are not like that. We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now do you begin to understand me?â 1984
