A Suit? How about Repeal ObamaCare?

The Objective Standard just published my blog post, “What Congress Should Do Rather than Sue.” I write, “Congress has the power to repeal ObamaCare and to begin rolling back government controls of health care. For example, Congress could not only repeal the rights-violating mandates that force individuals to purchase insurance and employers to provide it; Congress could also put an end to the use of the tax code to punish people for purchasing insurance directly.” In his post on the subject, Erick Erickson offers a great quote by Madison explaining how and why Congress controls the purse; it begins, “The House of Representatives cannot only refuse, but they alone can propose, the supplies requisite for the support of government.”
