New Cato Paper: Obamacare's Anti-Constitutional and Authoritarian Super-Legislature

In 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act created the Independent Payment Advisory Board, or IPAB. The unelected government officials on this board possess unprecedented power to make laws free of any meaningful oversight. In a new paper, Diane Cohen and Michael F. Cannon argue that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and IPAB are not merely unconstitutional -- they are anti-constitutional: "The Independent Payment Advisory Board poses a threat to the U.S. Constitution and representative government that transcends party and ideology."
