"The constitution does not restrict duly elected officials from making public policy. The VA and medicare are government run health care programs and fully within the scope of the constitution."

Amendment 10 - Powers of the States and People. Ratified 12/15/1791. Note

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.


nothing about national health care in the constitution, that's a states issue, same with cap and trade.

Go vote. That is all you have to do. Vote at the local level, state level and national level.

Voting is how you get your freedom back in a democracy---and the only way.


Good advice.
