"So this is how liberty dies… with thunderous applause."

219 traitors passed so-called "ObamaCare" socialized medicine (over 212 patriots) in the so-called U.S. house of representatives. It was as dark a day as the republic has ever seen.

This post on Americanly Yours has some suggestions on what might come next:

state nullification, by passage of laws or amendments to state constitutions
lawsuits filed by states' Attorneys General to block and overturn the bill
ousting of the traitors in November and a possibility of repealing the bill

If there are states brave enough to resist the new unconstitutional bill—and some are going so far as to promise to arrest any federal agent in the state that will try to uphold it, then the next step will probably be an attempt at withholding federal funds (they won't go military at first). The response to this must be state refusal to render taxes to the federal government—presented very carefully as "for the seniors" and "for the children", with (some of) the funds being used to pay at least the partial costs of federal programs now cut off.

Individuals should be encouraged by the state not to pay income taxes (or possibly to make a partial payment into an escrow account, for the propaganda value—return to constitutionalism, feds, and we'll give you your ill-gotten loot), and then you have your revolution. People will flock to those states. Businesses will follow, as long as business taxes are kept low. By then, a military invasion will be too late: Americans won't stand by for the massacre of an entire state; even liberals might blanch at that a little. And at that point, even without all the modern weapons I claim are necessary, a million or so people armed and scattered through the population will have better success in a guerrilla war than even the Islamofascists, and for a far greater cause.
