    Jon Walker commented on the blog post New Yorkers Want Medical Marijuana Legalized

    2012-05-16 07:52:30View | Delete

    solid in the northeast many Republicans are not much better on this issue than the Dem governors. In New Hampshire the Republicans wanted to pass medical marijuana until the dem governor stopped them.

    The conservative dutch government just collapsed so there is a decent chance the policy could change after the next election.

    2012-04-17 12:34:50View | Delete

    Since last century election rules have been restricted to reduce parties. It used to be you can have fusion tickets and cross endorse in most state. Now it is no longer allowed in most states.

    Jon Walker commented on the blog post Doing My Taxes Like Paul Ryan Does his “Budget”

    2012-04-10 11:35:43View | Delete

    Obama’s budget is full of numbers. I don’t know what you think about it but it is full of details, like what the actually tax brackets are.

    hence the point. we would not be sharing in sacrifice to pay down debts, we would be sacrificing to fund an empire but at least back in the day the empire was suppose to steal money for you not from you.

    Jon Walker commented on the blog post What We Will Learn if Only the Mandate Is Struck Down

    2012-04-05 11:23:14View | Delete

    The act did not have a severability clause but the Supreme Court hired a lawyer to argue the issue of severing only the mandate. It is a very possible out coming but probably not the most likely

    Jon Walker commented on the blog post Why Can’t Congress Just Ask the Supreme Court Ahead of Time?

    2012-04-03 13:48:41View | Delete

    Given that President Washington write to the Supreme Court asking for advice on a legal, you can make the case at least some of the framers didn’t think the Constitutional was meant to bar this practice.

    Jon Walker commented on the blog post Individual Mandates and Unraveling the Great Society

    2012-03-29 11:30:03View | Delete

    My point is not that it will lead to progressive health care but that it might make it harder for GOP to privatize social security.

    2012-03-29 10:41:20View | Delete

    I think his argument is stupid but the facts behind it were not wrong.

    His argument is that every provision in the was needed to get the votes for its passage and this was one of them. The fact the the provision was later repealed doesn’t change the facts.
