Obamacare will be dead when people don’t pay the penalty.
No.
nope.
I am a skeptic. I do not think SCOTUS will rule in favor of the Constitution, conscience and Hobby Lobby.
I hope I’m wrong.
No
Just allows these groups to exempt themselves. It doesn’t help them of course, but I think the doctors will decide this law. And a lot of them are retiring or going fully private for cash payments.
That would be so wonderful.
The Führer will just tell you it isn’t...
Now that it’s here, it will never be dead. That’s why Dems were in such a damn hurry to give it to us, and why Repubs have only half-heartedly fought it — it means generations of “an issue” to fight over, tweak, and pretend to fix, all the while just scraping enough votes to get them to the next election, when they can do it all over again. Just like Social Security and “the debt.”
I don’t trust this court to rule righteously on this debacle called 0bamacare at all.
Try to understand the Catholic perspective. Catholics have rightly held that the Obama administration is guilty of vile anti Catholic bigotry. It knew exactly what it was doing when it passed administrative rules that would force Catholics to violate their deeply held religious beliefs by funding the use of abortion inducing drugs. Otherwise as a matter of conscience they would have to close institutions that are a part of their religious expression i.e. health care, social services, education. The Supreme Court Justices who would vote to uphold these regulations would forever be known as anti Catholic bigots. If they decide in favor of the non Catholic Hobby Lobby case, then the appellate courts should find the anti Catholic rules unconstitutional.It would spare the Justices the bigot label.
What happens if they rule against The Little Sisters of the Poor? If the nuns dont comply and I believe they won’t are they going to send in armed agents to sieze assets anxd evict the elderly? I don’t think Obama and Jarrett have considered the blowback on such an Atlas Shrugged event.
if obamacare dies and takes the health insurance industry with it, it won’t matter
Well, campaign finance reform is surely dead after yesterday. The Supremes will probably kill it on the installment plan.
Maybe you mean severability? If one section is bad then the whole document isn’t bad, just that one section.
Wasn’t the fact that nobamacare has no severability clause one of the first problems it had?
No, that won’t do it.
They won’t, Roberts is in their corner.
I’m sure you meant “severability” clause, not serviceability.
“How is it that you can tell what the weather will be by how the sky looks at sunset or sunrise, discerning the signs of the sky - but you do not know the sign of the times?’
Paraphrasing Matthew 16:3
The zeitgeist says SCOTUS will rule against Christianity and empower the god of fascist government and dominance to subjugate them.
It has already been decreed that we do not have the right of the free exercise of religion. It is accepted that we only have a right not to be offended by religion.
The times say that we have no right to biblical religion and faith outside of a box that is hidden so as to not offend the hedonist or the Muslim.
