It doesn't matter that the court said that the commerce clause has limited power because the court also said that taxation IS unlimited power.
Good point.
hey buddy... news flash..
the congress has always had the power to tax anydanmthing it pleases..
this ruling gave them nothing extra..
It took away their so called right to use the commerce clause any damn way they please..
you know the other thing that is troublesome about this “Roberts has a Master Plan” mentality is that no master plan matters now. This was a fundamental dividing point in American history.
The way he mis-reads the Constitution allows for the fundamental transformation into the totalitarian democracy that the left has always wanted. Roberts, of course, would say that he isn’t for that, that he wanted to decide on narrow grounds, blah blah blah...to avoid partisanship blah blah blah...all that amounts to nothing and even the Constitution amounts to nothing when the country itself has been fundamentally altered in how it relates to the federal government.
Its like saying “no” to chemotherapy when your body is riddled with cancer, and saying, “oh, now, I have a wellness plan here in my pocket which includes diet and exercise...and chemo is dangerous anyways”.
That is nothing new. If they would have just called this a tax, it is almost assured all earlier courts would have ruled the law constitutional.
