^Exactly.

I don't know why it's so difficult for some to understand.

The Constitution clearly restricts the FEDERAL Government from implementing such sweeping legislation that effects states individual rights. These matters are to be left to the states and their people. With this bill, a majority of states oppose it. 60% of all US citizens want it repealed. How can the Federal Government force such an act that clearly violates the wishes of The People.

It's why Massachusetts was able to do it individually. That's the state's right. If a state wants to bankrupt themselves, they're free to. The Federal Government, in this case, has just imposed legislation that forces huge costs to state budgets that want nothing to do with it. Texas along with a handful of other states have played responsibly and are among the few who are doing well financially. Now, they will be crippled like the rest of the liberal states under mountains of debt.

It's just like all of the other social issues. Guns laws, gay marriage, DMV laws, state tax laws, and endless state regulations involving industry and everything else is all left to the state. Notice that the federal government has no power in these matters (or at least very limited).
