Libertarians and conservatives need not fear a “right to health care,” because defining such a right prevents ObamaCare and similar federal interference, according to the Ninth and Tenth Amendments.
A number of legislators and attorneys general have decided to challenge ObamaCare on constitutional grounds, citing the Tenth Amendment, and a bandwagon effect is apparent.
ObamaCare is hardly the only federal law respecting health care that assaults the Ninth and Tenth Amendments. A successful campaign based on the Tenth Amendment need not stop with the repeal of ObamaCare.

drugs and medical devices are a short list of federal laws that likely offend the Tenth Amendment.
