FreedomWorks is reporting that the number of states telling the Feds “No thanks” on the HHS health care exchanges has now grown to 22. Good news for the health of our sick economy.
 
Obamacare essentially decrees to the states;
 
• You will establish an insurance exchange for health care in your state and you will raise taxes to pay for it.
 
• If you don’t comply, we’ll set up the exchange for you from Washington D.C. and offset the costs by withholding any funding you would have otherwise received from the federal government.
 
According to Judge Napolitano, the Supreme Court has already determined that ordering the states to comply with this mandate amounts to coercion and is therefore unconstitutional.
 
This could definitely be the way to dismantle this Obamanation. As FreedomWorks says:

Without the exchange, federal mandates won’t work and the feds cannot distribute the necessary insurance subsidies in exchange-less states. Obamacare falls apart. Congress will then be forced to revisit the law.

 
22 states and counting…
 
 
HHS has pushed the deadline for planning to set up an exchange to December 14th. FreedomWorks is updating the list of states that are opting out HERE. If your state is still undecided ( Florida, Idaho, Iowa, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee at last count), this page also links to an email message you can send to the appropriate legislators, urging them NOT to go along with the exchanges.
