What Missouri’s Law Against ObamaCare Does and Doesn’t Do
by Josie Wales

In the words of our President: “Let me be clear,” Missouri’s Prop C represents a victory for individual freedom, not “states’ rights.”

I am not sure why I have to keep repeating this, but there is NO SUCH THING AS STATES’ RIGHTS! And people that use that term, or the term “nullification,” do not help our cause.

States have powers, and while those powers diminish in the face of the progressive-statist attack upon our Constitution, powers run contrary to individual rights. So let me break it down:

1) Prop C places a duty on the state of Missouri to defend its citizens from the IRS enforced individual mandate.

2) Prop C denies the federal government state resources to enforce the individual mandate.

Anyone with an ounce of constitutional knowledge knows that neither of those aspects of Prop C conflict directly with the Supremacy Clause. (more…)
