Federal court says Obamacare built on quicksand "A federal appeals court Tuesday seemed skeptical of the Obama administration’s claim that it can give subsidies to Americans regardless of what kind of Obamacare exchange they join, in a case that could threaten the fundamental deal underpinning the Affordable Care Act.

One judge called the Obamacare rollout an “unmitigated disaster” and said the administration is stretching to try to cover up for how poorly the law was written.

“I know there’s an absurdity principle, but is there a stupidity principle?” said Judge A. Raymond Randolph. “If the law is just stupid, I don’t think it’s up to the court to save it.”

At stake in the case is whether the government can pay subsidies to help Americans buy insurance regardless of whether they are in states that set up their own health care markets, known as exchanges, or whether they live in the two-thirds of states where the federal government stepped in to set up an exchange.

If the court rules that residents are able to get tax credits only if they are part of state-run exchanges, many of the Americans who live in the 34 states where the federal government runs the exchange will be less likely to sign up. If they don’t sign up and choose to pay the tax penalty under the individual mandate, it could skew the economics underpinning the entire law.................."

With Big Government running your healthcare and the "environment" what could possibly go wrong?

"He also asked whether, if Congress didn’t legislate something clearly, it was really the court’s job to fix the statute."

Perhaps the Court is saying that it is not the job of the Court to correct the buffoonery in laws passed by Democrats (Reid/Pelosi).
