According toMark Levin and others the Commerce Clause was NOT limited AND the Power to coerce through taxation WAS EXPANDED !

Worse than that, the Chief Justice has succumbed to the dark side by redefining the meaning of words to get the rationale for his ruling. THAT is the darkest and most extreme power of the modern Supreme Court.

Greg Gutfeld said something like,

’ It`s as if Roberts was your professor and asked for a term paper on a subject and gave you an F . He then writes the term paper over, for you , on a completely different subject and gives you an A for it ! ‘

The pResident is soon to create this new Insurance rule. All people must purchase a life insurance policy. All life insurance policies must henceforth supply at least 200 thousand dollars in event that the insured dies. All policies must also include at least the minimum as follows: $20,000 per finger, $80,000 per hand, $100,000 per arm or leg. The following clause must be added to each policy. 73% of all payout will be sent directly to The Obama Administration immediately before any other payouts are made.

What is to stop them!

Roberts’ opinion reminds me of Plessy v. Ferguson where the Constitution was twisted to accomidate the political desires expressed in the legislation. Clearly it should have been decided to be an overreach of the commerce clause but, in spite of Roberts’ assertion in his opinion, the commerce question was never addressed by a majority so the case has no precedent value as a limitation of the commerce clause. Further, it does expand federal taxing ability or at least reinforces it.

The Obamacare decision is a complete disaster. One death among the conservative trio or the moderate (Kennedy) and the court will have no affection for the Constitution at all. It will be another “Plessy Court” whose self defined job is to pervert the document to fit the prejudice of the time.
