(NaturalNews) In a desperate bid to save the rapidly collapsing Obamacare socialized medicine program, President Obama announced a "fix" yesterday that would "allow" health insurance companies to avoid cancelling whatever plans haven't already been cancelled due to Obamacare itself.
In doing so, Obama effectively declares himself absolute dictator over all laws across the country, assuming the power to enforce, ignore or alter laws at he pleases.
The problem with this is that such powers do not exist in the Office of the President. Like everything else surrounding Obamacare, Obama himself is simply inventing new powers as he goes along and hoping no one will question his assumed (illegal) authority.
"The unexpected compromise was announced amid growing revolt within Mr. Obama's own party over his broken promise that Americans who liked their insurance could keep it. But it sparked another backlash as some legal scholars questioned whether the president had the authority to create the loophole," reports the Washington Times.
It also, by the way, thrust the insurance industry into a state of chaos where insurance companies now have no idea what's going to be "law" tomorrow, next month or next year. Apparently Obama can simply change his mind at any time and decide that insurance companies are suddenly engaged in mass criminal activities which can then be prosecuted under the law as it is written.
Beware of presidents who claim absolute power over CongressThis is how Hitler rose to power, of course. It's how every tyrant throughout history got his start. It's also precisely what the United States Constitution prohibits in Article II, Section 3, where the language demands that the President "take care that laws be faithfully executed."
Nowhere in the Constitution does it say any President can simply choose to selectively ignore laws passed by Congress. Thus, Obama's new "fix" is blatantly illegal from the start.
Even if it were legal under the U.S. Constitution, it is clearly discriminatory, allowing the White House to essentially decide which insurance companies "get" to be ignored by the law and which companies will be prosecuted for "illegally" keeping policies in place that violate the Affordable Care Act as written. This only creates yet more centralization of power in the White House, giving them the tools to silence dissent among insurance companies by wielding prosecutorial discretion as a political weapon.
Obama unleashes economic despair and market chaos on AmericaThe health insurance industry is now suffering from a case of regulatory whiplash. Obama's enforcement of federal law seems to change with the direction of the wind, and his highly irresponsible, immature actions are causing extreme market destabilization.
At this point, insurance companies have no idea what to believe. Nor do consumers who are shopping for plans. Healthcare.gov remains in a disastrous state and even though Obama has now announced his unconstitutional "fix" for people to keep their health care plans, there exists no government-legalized mechanism for insurance companies to reinstate policies already cancelled!
Thus, all the policies already cancelled are dead and gone forever. So it's not even clear how Obama's so-called "fix" helps anyone at all.
Like everything else in the Obama administration, this "fix" is nothing more than deceptive smooth talking to gloss over a problem and promote the delusion that everything is working just fine.
Obama's campaign promise of "hope and change" has become a joke. Sometimes hope is little more than false hope pretending to be real. And sometimes, the most charming, slick talking salesman is actually a con artist. Kevin Trudeau is in prison right now for lying about a weight loss book. Obama lied to the whole country about a far more serious issue, and he gets rewarded with even more power in his unconstitutional effort to "fix" the very problem he caused in the first place.
What's wrong with this picture?
Poster Comment: Here is the real reason der UberMessiah wants to Veto der RuhpupliKon bill to delay der NaziKare mandates. Oh'NaziKare has all along been not about Hellthcare but about absolute power. Oh'Bummer's Masters see it slipping from their grip with the rejection of Oh'BummerKare by der Amurkin Sheeple. Why? They are prepared to fight an open rebellion and to put it down with bloody rivers running in the streets, BUT they are almost powerless against simple noncompliance by Der Sheeple. It gives them no legitimate excuse to send their Storm Troopers into the streets to put down a rebellion against their dictatorship. You don't think DHS/Gestapo has been accumulating hundreds of millions of rounds of hollow-points because they are afraid of a massive infazion by their lackeys in AL CIAda do you? Those rounds are for YOU. By not agreeing, and not participating, you follow the road of Gandhi. The road of peaceful, but firm, resistance to tyranny. By attempting to deflect the wave of rebellion against der Hellthcare Dictatorship Oh'bummer also asserts powers and authority not given the office of the Presidency under our legitimate Constitution.

Americans who have no experience with, or knowledge of, tyranny believe that only terrorists will experience the unchecked power of the state. They will believe this until it happens to them, or their children, or their friends. Paul Craig Roberts
