I said nothng about gender because Obergefell changed that.
What did Obergefell change?
Powers of the states are determined by each state under the 10th amendment. Powers of Congress are established under Article I, Section 8. If a power is allowed and not denied the federal or state government they can both exercise that power--civil and criminal laws, the police powers that allows states to regulate health, safety, welfare, and morals.
OK, so here you're making a massive assumption; that those regulated powers are enumetated to the states, and you've yet to actually show where in Article I, Section 8 the COnstituition specifically remanded those issues to the states.
The 10th amendment is very broad, and doesn't explicitly state what falls under that since health care obviously doesn't thanks to Medicare.
That is why it is a concurrent power--both the federal government and states can perform that function.
So now you're reversing yourself and saying that the power isn't just for the states, and that Congress can pass federal health care laws.
The federal law creating Medicare makes it for those over 65.
Right, so it's not in the Constitution, and prior to the Medicare Act, there was no Constitutional Amendment that established health care as something enumerated to the states.
I never said health care is just a state issue.
Yes you did. Two posts ago.
I said it is a concurrent power that both federal and state can perform.
You just moved that bar right now.
No, I don't mean Medicaid which is a joint federal state program. I mean the many state/local health care programs. Remember Romneycare? States have multiple health care programs.
The point is that they don't need to.
You call me lazy but then make me teach you basic civics because you're too dumb to understand basic constitutional powers. What a hypocrite.
I understand them just fine...what I don't understand is how you can continue flip-flopping and moving the bar while calling me a hypocrite.
I'm tired of fooling with you. You lie constantly to me and other posters, you attack with personal insults and hostility, you can't remember shit and claim you said stuff you never said and forgot stuff you did say. If anybody gives any personal information about themselves you use it to attack them. Worse, I check my notifications I've got 10 posts from you whining about something.
Unlike you, I do not have dementia or early onset Alzheimer's.
I've had to do the work of correcting every single one of your mistakes here, and instead of thanking me,
you decide to be an asshole about it because of your bruised ego.
For someone so fucking old, you sure have a ton of growing up left to do.
