The Baucus Senate bill, for the first time in the history of our country will force us as  constituents to buy a product. We’ve been free to buy or not to buy things, but now for the first time we’re going to have to buy health insurance. And if we don’t buy it, the IRS is going to tax a family of four $1,500 or more.

Whether this provision is unconstitutional, this issue has never been raised before about having to buy something. Some constitutional lawyers are indicating that it is unconstitutional, or at least a violation of the Tenth Amendment.

Stay tuned . Our country is in free fall. Let’s hope we can survive.
