Do y’all support Texas sovereignty while it demands federal money?

WAKE UP CALL: TEXAS GOV. BACK RESOLUTION AFFIRMING SOVEREIGNTY

http://drudgereport.com/flashtx.htm

"It also designates that all compulsory federal legislation … that requires states to pass legislation or lose federal funding, be prohibited or repealed."

In other words, "Gimme your money, suckah, and respect my sovereignty".

There isn’t much about Texas I support or respect. It’s unfortunate I have family there. If it wants sovereignty than I guess it needs to stand on it’s own. That includes it’s battle with the illegal immigrants.

texas secession under Gov. Rick Perry?

how many people out there believe that texas could secede if it wanted to regardless of legislation. please comment tactfully

If liberty, the right to live under a government by choice, the desire for proper government are the tenets that bond several states together in a voluntary compact, then the ability of a state to voluntarily leave that union is sacrosanct.

Sadly, by 1865 we were no longer a voluntary union of states but a forced union of victor and vanquished.

Given that this Union of States was begun as a voluntary union of 13 independent states, Texas is not unique.

The Union was formed by the voluntary agreement of the States; and these, in uniting together, have not forfeited their Nationality, nor have they been reduced to the condition of one and the same people. If one of the States chose to withdraw its name from the contract, it would be difficult to disprove its right of doing so … – Alex de Tocqueville, Democracy In America

The error is in the assumption that the General Government is a party to the constitutional compact. The States … formed the compact, acting as sovereign and independent communities. – John C. Calhoun

The procedure of secession was to have an election for delegates to a state convention, to meet in convention, and to adopt ordinances of secession. This was done in accord with the Southern understanding of what would be in keeping with the United States Constitution. It had, after all, been ratified by the states acting through conventions. Could they not "un-ratify" it – secede from the Union – in the same fashion? – Clarence Carson, A Basic History Of The United States

If [the Declaration of Independence] justifies the secession from the British empire of 3,000,000 of colonists in 1776, we do not see why it would not justify the secession of 5,000,000 of Southrons from the Federal Union in 1861. – New York Tribune, December 17, 1860

The principle, on which the war was waged by the North, was simply this: That men may rightfully be compelled to submit to, and support, a government that they do not want; and that resistance, on their part, makes them traitors and criminals. No principle, that is possible to be named, can be more self-evidently false than this; or more self-evidently fatal to all political freedom. Yet it triumphed in the field, and is now assumed to be established. If it really be established, the number of slaves, instead of having been diminished by the war, has been greatly increased; for a man, thus subjected to a government that he does not want, is a slave. – Lysander Spooner

Our cause was so just, so sacred, that had I known all that has come to pass, had I known what was to be inflicted upon me, all that my country was to suffer, all that our posterity was to endure, I would do it all over again. – Jefferson Davis

The “Lost Cause” Jefferson alluded to in this statement was not as popularly believed, the preservation of slavery; it was the right of a state to be free of tyrannical government. A government that indeed proved its tyranny by use of armed force.

I saw in States’ rights the only availing check upon the absolutism of the sovereign will, and secession filled me with hope, not as the destruction but as the redemption of Democracy…. Therefore I deemed that you were fighting the battles of our liberty, our progress, and our civilization, and I mourn for the stake which was lost at Richmond more deeply than I rejoice over that which was saved at Waterloo. -Lord Acton, in a letter to Robert E Lee right after the war

Health Insurance in Florida is Out of Control

Health Insurance premiums are out of control! The trend of higher costs and lower benefits is on the rise. Florida Health Insurance web suggests using an insurance professional to find the best available rates for your individual, small business, or self employed health insurance.

Voted the number one insurance portal by Florida consumers, Florida Health Insurance Web, reports nearly three million Floridians without health insurance in Florida. Thats nearly a quarter of the states population. That in mind medical bankruptcy is up – the leading cause of bankruptcy today.

Every Floridian without health insurance coverage is just one illness away from financial ruin. Florida Health Insurance Web, www.FloridaHealthInsuranceWeb.com, advises consulting an online source such as its service, before choosing any health insurance policy.

In the past, applying for health insurance had been an eye opening experience for many.

The difficulty obtaining affordable health insurance rates in the sunshine state has always been hard, but now it has reached epic proportions. Florida residents may experience any number of insurance-related problems, including claim denials, sky-high premiums, cancellations, or refusals to grant or renew their policies. Florida’s Governor Crist vows to fix the problem and bring affordable insurance to all Florida’s residents. Democrats are pushing a health-care-reform legislation during the current legislative session. They are sponsoring a bill that would ask voters in 2008 to insert a guarantee in the constitution that all children in Florida would have access to health insurance by July, 2010.

At a recent insurance conference in Orlando, one Florida health insurance agent, Margaret

Margolas explained the process, “Before issuing a health insurance policy in Florida, insurance companies offering individual health insurance policies evaluate certain information about you to determine how likely you are to have a claim.” This is called “underwriting.”

She spoke to hundreds of business owners about health care for the uninsured and individual company’s role in delivering that health care. Margolas said, “Individuals looking for health insurance usually cannot find policies to cover past health problems.” How does someone with a pre-existing condition get coverage? Hiring a health insurance professional “consultant” may help. These consultants usually work at no cost to consumers; their fees are paid by the health care provider.

For any health policy, a company might consider age, occupation, current health status and medical history. They can also look at lifestyle, and habits to see what type of health risks a person may have. If individual risk factors indicate that a claim is likely, the company may charge more for the policy or even worse, refuse coverage.

Before applying for an individual health insurance policy, lorida Health Insurance Web advises talking to a qualified health insurance consultant for advice on which policy to choose.

Most individual health insurance companies in Florida have certain clauses regarding risk factors and pre-existing conditions. Limits on risk and “pre-existing conditions” are a standard part of most health plans. These limits ensure that benefits are paid only for conditions that occur naturally and only after your health coverage becomes effective. Paying only for approved services and covered conditions helps control healthcare costs and prevent possible insurance abuse.

The legal aspect of all this is “failure to disclose pre-existing conditions could jeopardize future claims” or invalidate the policy. Individual health insurance companies may completely exclude coverage for pre-existing conditions by attaching an “exclusion rider” to the policy.

If an applicant lists their pre-existing conditions on the application and the company issues coverage without attaching an exclusion rider, the company must begin covering the pre-existing conditions when the policy’s pre-existing waiting period expires. Pre-existing condition waiting periods can be a maximum of two years on individual policies. Exclusion riders can be in-force indefinitely.

In Florida, and in other states like Texas, if a person moves from a group, government, or church health plan to an individual health insurance policy, they will not be subject to a new pre-existing condition waiting periods if they had 18 months of prior coverage, with no more than 63 days lapse in coverage.

What else can someone do to get individual health plans? Corporations are able to purchase health insurance that cover pre-existing conditions for their employees so many CPA’s recommend using S-corporations status instead of individual. Simply create an S-Corp online from a state like Nevada or Delaware, ($350) and then apply for insurance under the corporation.

Buying insurance without an S-Corp means more limitations to your policy; chances are the end result will be some sort of “Cash for Services” Plan, a PPO, or HMO plan. These plans are the most typical.

Margolas says, “One word of advice when it comes to applying for an individual health insurance policy: applicants should be forthcoming and honestly answer all questions about medical conditions. Withholding information about an illness or medication is bad, the health insurance company may deny subsequent claims.”

Ask questions, especially if the wording of the policy is difficult. Be sure about specifics of the health insurance coverage. Don’t be afraid to ask for clarification about policy details. For more help, have a Florida health insurance consultant give you an explanation. Try to get answers in writing.

If a person loses health insurance coverage from their job, they may opt to continue coverage with insurance called COBRA. COBRA stands for (Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act). COBRA is a law that makes it mandatory for an employer to provide the option of retaining membership in their health insurance plan. However applicants will have to pay the entire monthly premium part which was paid by the company earlier. Most people are surprised at the high cost of the COBRA premium; which may run up to 500$ a month.

If none of the above ways to reduce insurance costs work,

then the only way is to go for standard individual health insurance policy. As mentioned earlier they are usually costly, but online websites can help Floridian’s weed through the mounds of policies and select the best price and coverage available.

About Florida Health Insurance Web Florida Health Insurance Web is an online source of health insurance agents and insurance carriers covering individuals in the state of Florida. Individuals can get insurance quotes, search rates online by city, read current insurance news and events.

Health Insurance In Florida Needs Change.

Will Montana’s new gun law be the spark that ignites civil war?

Passed into law by the Governor, it will go into effect October 1. Montana has vowed to sue the Fed if they attempt to shut down any Montana-based manufacturer, and arrest any Federal agent who attempts to enforce Federal law that is more restrictive than Montana’s law. When it comes to a head, will the Fed finally realize they have no overstepped their authority with the States, or will they ignore Montana’s sovereignty and try to enforce Federal regulation where it is not authorized?

How soon before Texas and other States pass similar legislation, and at what point will the Fed acquiesce, or force civil war?

I’m lovin that a state has finally drawn a line in the sand and said, "Federal control stops here."
