Yep it would boost the cost of those that actually pay for what they sign up for & because some one has to pay for it which in the long run will more than likely be the US gov't S**T roles down hill & we the people will pay for it weather it be through higher taxes along with higher inflation .

The comments get more desperate and ridiculous as we get closer and closer to the midterms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Frankish Reich Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 The decision seems correct under existing legal rules. But the rules have to be changed. In our federal system the courts are not allowed to issue “advisory opinions.” If Congress passes a law of dubious constitutionality, or if the President implements a policy that runs afoul of the Constitution (and I believe this one does), there’s also no “taxpayer standing” to challenge it. You’d have to find an individual plaintiff or plaintiffs to show that they are being harmed by the policy. “My taxes may go up in the future” is not enough. It’s not just Biden, although this is a pretty extreme executive action. Trump diverting appropriations to building his wall was another. In our system, Congress is supposed to have some control over how taxpayer monies are spent. Maybe we need a doctrine (or even constitutional amendment) to allow the courts to strike down unconstitutional policies based on a certification by a certain percentage of Congress, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ruling doesn’t decide any merits of this case or anything. The lower ruling that the Republicans don’t have standing is still affirmed until the Appeals court can decide. So this pause on the forgiveness doesn’t tell us anything about how the court will rule on the Republican judges decision that there is no standing. MOHELA is probably the only entity or person in America with standing. They’re being dragged into the case by Republicans without being the one actually bringing a case. It seems highly doubtful they would bring a case is this fails at appeals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
