“Maybe the next time the Roberts Court has a chance to put this thing out of its misery, it’ll take it.”

If there is anything good about Roberts decision on
Obamacare, he stumbled dumb and blind walking backwards
into it. It wont be congress, the next president or
USSC that gets rid of Obamacare. If it happens at all it
will be the people and the states who do it. Forget about
congress too. They are in on it or compromised as well.

No praise for that traitor from me, he still voted with Kagan, the Wise Latina, and Ginsberg.

God-damned idiots.

A tax is for the purpose of raising revenue. It’s not a tax, it’s a fine. A fine is for the purpose of punishing actions. Obamacare outlaws Christianity.

The state has unrestricted power to tax; It does not have unrestricted power to outlaw.

In the list of loathsome human beings, Roberts had drifted to near the top.

Roberts was correct.

The bill uses the IRS to calculate a tax on income based on health insurance coverage.

Call it whatever you like. It's still a tax because it's accessed as a tax.

The real morons are the millions that stupidly passed the income tax amendment almost 100 years ago which gave the federal government limitless power to tax income and spend without apportionment.

The nice thing about it being a tax is that pre-empts the Dems moral argument that not signing uup for Obamacare is not complying with the law.

Not paying ‘the tax’ is not complying, but there is no penalty for that.

The infamy of what Roberts did to us all will live for centuries.

A penalty is NOT a tax. Period.

Our Article V Convention ought to take teh opportunity to define the Federal taxing power.

I still want to know what they had on him. Must be somewhat serious or he wouldn’t have caved.

Is this the largest Tax hike in history? And the most destructive?

People thought Justice Roberts was cleaver when he declared the noncompliance fines imposed by the ACA were instead a tax. Please correct me if I’m wrong but since any tax levied on the people, according to our constitution, can only come from the House, there was hope that the House would force compliance of that rule, thus killing the ACA. Obviously that was wishful thinking. The real reason Roberts declared the ACA fine as a Tax, other than that was what he told to do, is because an individual can challenge an imposed fine in court and a fine for not purchasing health insurance would, for all intents, have been found unconstitutional in a lower court. The legality of a Federal Tax once it becomes law can not be challenged. With that, Justice Roberts is as wretched and treasonous as the other anti-constitutionalist justices as well as the establishment cabal now running DC.
