What does healthcare have to do with states rights?
States across the nation are gearing up for a battle with Washington over healthcare mandates. If and when it happens, lawmakers in ten states … and that number seems to be growing by the minute … are creating state constitutional amendments to outlaw the health insurance mandate.

So do the states stand a chance?
Yes, there is no provision in the United States Constitution which grants the Federal Government authority to involve itself in health care.
Our entire Federal Government is under the United States Constitution and only those items which are explicity granted, as powers, to the Federal Government are Constitutional.
Everything the Federal Government does which fails to be stated and granted in the United States Constitution is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
