The Illuminati have her under mind control. The aliens put a chip in her head. I have watched Ann for too many years. She knows better.
States certainly have more power than the Fed, but they also have Constitutions, and MA's was written by John Adams and was the primary model for the Federal constitution. Inalienable rights are still inalienable under a State government. If a state wanted to mandate that no one could receive medical treatment without first proving they could pay ( via bond, insurance, or cash on hand) they would have the power to do that. (though I would fight it tooth and nail - private hospitals and doctors should have a right to determine on their ownwhen and if they will provide service) - but yes, States have a right to "regulate" business, they don't have a right to force it to happen. Just like the roads- I have to get a license and an emissions test if I wish to use my personal vehicle on public property. I have to get a Marriage license, and maybe a blood test, if I wish my union to be recognized by the public courts. I am fine with that. I can choose not to drive. I can choose to not get a marriage license. There is no fine imposed on me by the government for refusing either service. Likewise, if (government) Hospitals had a right (or a mandate) to refuse service if I don't provide an ability to pay, then I can choose to not use their services, and must use the services of a private doctor, perhaps even in a different state or country. I would not be punished by the state for making that choice, because I decided I was willing to pay the consequences of having to get my treatment elsewhere, just as I might decide I need to bum rides all of my life, or to not have any legal recourse if my wife leaves me. These can be heavy and costly consequences, but at least I would be free to accept them without being punished.
The Mandate forces me into a contract without my consent, and implements a punishment if choose to not live up to the terms of that contract. It is therefore a violation of my inalienable rights, and evil on its face. Why Ann is willing to tow the establishment line on this is beyond me. Maybe the NWO does exist and Ann was just offered a nice Beachside mansion after the massacre of mankind.
I will not vote for Romney (or buy any more of Ann's books.) . Period. I am not voting for the GOP establishmnet socialist squish candidate because he is slightly better than the Democrat hard on commie. They want to be the party of the squish. Let them. I will not reward it. They want to alienate their base a second time. Go for it. Let Obama win. Let him own it. Or as Frank J said
"America is dying a slow death, and the best we can get is promises to make it an even slower death." Maybe choosing a faster death would be better? The Sheep won't realize there is a problem till it affects them, and an Obama second term ensures that it will sooner rather than later. We need them awake, and America at this point can't be saved using the tools as hand ( and Romney and Newt are such absolute tools) We need the Senate. We can block Obama SCOTUS nominees from there. Enough control of congress and we can pass amendments, and override Obama. Hell we can impeach him. Ignore the presidential race. Congress is all that matters.
