Excuse me, having insurance, and having “access” to healthcare are two different things my friends. Do you have food insurance? No? My goodness how do you stay alive without Mommy and Daddy to buy you food? Healthcare is a product and a service, and ANYONE can go buy some anytime they wish–they do no need insurance. And yes there are “stop-gaps” for the poor at local and state levels ,a dn at the Federal level already. I'm just in shock at how stupid people are that buy in to this takeover. Moreover, i hear Obama refer to insurance company abuses. Excuse me, state and federal government already has the power to regulate insurance companies, so go change the regs, my friend. Oh, but it's not about that, it's about taking over 1/6 of the economy for the following reasons; ego, power, arrogance, and disgusting gangsta politics. I'm telling you–people “out here” are pissed.

Why, happily! Section 246 of the health care bill (HR 3200) forbids payments "on behalf of individuals who are not lawfully present in the United States." You can look it up yourself, and read the rest of the bill (or at least search it for the parts you're interested in) at www.opencongress.org/bill/111-h3200/text. The site also provides an overview of the bill, and guides to help find the parts you care about.

The U.S. constitutional framers Supported and condoned socialism. The first socialist experiment in history was the development of the U.S. Post office. Article #1Section #8 Paragraph #7 of the constitution created a government Run socialistic stamp creation and mail delivery system. Our founders, In their wisdom knew that some things could only be accomplished by government intervention. Proof , that if, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, John Adams And other founders were alive today they would be in favor Of removing the greedy hands of the middle man (insurance companies) from financially bleeding our citizens ; they would support a single payer system; telling the insurance companies and their Lackey conservative shills that The constitution was created for common defense and General welfare of the American people. That health is a necessary ingredient of our general welfare! Article #1 Section #8 Paragraph #11. Gives congress the right to tax for two reasons: common defense and general Welfare; not to promote preemptive warfare or Boss-Tweed Insurance trusts. The Lemming health care protestors, with their twitching noses, And rat whiskers, are ready to jump on any band wagon of the Talk radio rabble- rousers; lackeys of special interests; simpletons who go off In delirious rage against any Democratic proposal; crying “call the police there is a BLACK MAN in the WHITE HOUSE“! Claiming, in their Simple- Simon mentality, that Obama wants to appoint Dr. Kavorchian surgeon general and put collection boxes outside hospitals so you can drop of granny when she gets too infirmed.

I'm not a constitutional scholar either, but I'd say you're dead wrong about the meaning of general welfare. If the Constitution's general welfare clause is as you say, then they would have the power to tax and spend with no limits. If such was the case there would be no reason to enumerate specific functions of the federal government since post offices, defense and everything else would be included in a general provision.

In my opinion, the federal government does not have the Constitutional authority to do most of what they've been doing. The 10th amendment gives the states the right to provide social services if the population is willing to pay the price financially. You could have some states provide welfare,health care and other services while other states may only provide the basics.
