from the mouth of a Reagan man---
http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/archives/individual/20...
CHARLES FRIED TELLS THE GOP WHAT IT DOESN'T WANT TO HEAR.... Harvard law professor Charles Fried, President Reagan's Solicitor General, doesn't love the Affordable Care Act, and isn't convinced it will work. But as a constitutional matter, Fried has no use for the right's arguments. He'd written previously that "the health care law's enemies have no ally in the Constitution." Today, he elaborated on this point at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, calling the constitutional issue a "no-brainer." "I am quite sure that the health care mandate is constitutional.... My authorities are not recent. They go back to John Marshall, who sat in the Virginia legislature at the time they ratified the Constitution, and who, in 1824, in Gibbons v. Ogden, said, regarding Congress' Commerce power, 'what is this power? It is the power to regulate. That is -- to proscribe the rule by which commerce is governed.' To my mind, that is the end of the story of the constitutional basis for the mandate. "The mandate is a rule -- more accurately, 'part of a system of rules by which commerce is to be governed,' to quote Chief Justice Marshall. And if that weren't enough for you -- though it is enough for me -- you go back to Marshall in 1819, in McCulloch v. Maryland, where he said 'the powers given to the government imply the ordinary means of execution. The government which has the right to do an act' -- surely, to regulate health insurance -- "and has imposed on it the duty of performing that act, must, according to the dictates of reason, be allowed to select the means." And that is the Necessary and Proper Clause |
