Title: South Carolina Takes On Obamacare
Post by: Waitone on December 09, 2013, 06:18:33 PM
Senator Tom Davis is the single most consistent liberty minded pol in SC.  He introduced legislation last year that would neuter Obamacare within the confines of SC.  It is now moving through the legislature and, if you believe the source, has a pretty good chance of passage and signing by the governor. 

Don't think for a moment SC is a bastion of constitutional enthusiasm.  The same governor who is said to want to sign legislation neutering Obamacare (good) has sponsored an approximate 16% increase (year over year) in Medicaid.

Nice but, a tax deduction isn't going to be equal (in money you receive) to a tax refund of the same amount.

Way long time ago, South Carolina was the first State to secede from the Union.

Sadly, I seem to recall we didn't last all eight seconds at that particular rodeo.

No.  You guys had the right idea, but for the wrong cause.

And this time the slavery sidebar is race-neutral.
