"the 10th Amendment reads,
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
Since that's the case, how is it that our government has gone so out of control that the health care legislation that was just passed actually requires people to buy health insurance as a condition of citizenship? How long and hard do you have to torture the plain language of the Constitution to conclude that Congress can force you to buy any product it so desires: health care, condos from Nancy Pelosi, union cars, Barack Obama's biography or anything else it wants?
Why do you think we so seldom pass constitutional amendments any more? In all honesty, it's because Congress and even many of the judges in our court system pay so little attention to the Constitution that they just do anything they want."
