Supreme Court Prepares to Tackle Affordable Care Act

The Commerce Claause the Fourteenth Amendment and administrations through the courts and by political deals with Congress have done much to eviscerate the Tenth Amendment. Perhaps, perchance, the Supreme Court will have the courage to determine whether any entities but the states have the right and the power to repeal any part of the Constitution. It almost axiomatic that if only the States could adopt and can amend any part of the Constitution, only the States can repeal part of the Constitution, for example the 21st Amendment repealing the 18th Amendment. The federal government has never before assumed the universal power to by-pass the states and place mandates upon all citizens except for taxes and defense specifically granted in the Coastitution or by amendment. Judge Sutton of the Sixth Circuit raises the issues in the Saint Thoma Center case but reaches the wrong result. From the adoption of the Constitution, the States determined that the United States are one nation; without amendment or consent, the current administration want to change the structure to the United States is one natio nation and the States solely administrative agencies and minions of the federal bureacracy. May the Supreme Court preserve the nature of our sacred union.
