“Legal analysts say there is a good possibility the matter will reach the U.S. Supreme Court, but most say there is only a slim chance the states would prevail.”
If the ‘legal analysts’ are correct, this would mean we are all subject to any fiat demand by the government in Washington DC. There are no rights when the government can mandate anything be done or demand anything that can be extracted.
Nothing is left but dictators and subjects.
That’s why there has to be a political decision, not a court decision. The people have to put fear into the politicians bigtime.
