RUSH: Robert in Phoenix. Great to have you on the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Hi, Rush. Truly an honor to speak to you again.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Thank you very much, sir.<\/p>\n
CALLER: I have two comments. My first one is since Obamacare is considered unconstitutional due to the mandate that you have to buy it, why isn\u2019t Social Security and Medicare unconstitutional?<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, you don\u2019t have to buy anything with Social Security. And, by the way, Obamacare has not been declared unconstitutional yet. That\u2019s before the court, Supreme Court\u2019s gonna decide that. That\u2019s the commerce clause, which of course Obamacare requires that you buy health insurance, and if you don\u2019t, they are going to fine you. The Obama regime\u2019s way out of this, “No, no, no, no, we\u2019re not mandating anything. This is a tax.”<\/p>\n
CALLER: But Social Security and Medicare are a tax that you have to pay, which you don\u2019t receive the benefit of as you\u2019re paying it. Why is it that you\u2019re required —<\/p>\n
RUSH: They\u2019re two totally different things. Social Security is not a tax, actually, and it\u2019s not a fee and it\u2019s not a penalty. There\u2019s nothing in common.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Okay.<\/p>\n
