All that is just ridiculous nonthinking based on Free Republic dogma.
Roberts killed Obamacare by finding the weak legal link that was then congressionally removed and killed Obama care.
Roberts saw that to be permanent, there must be congressional action to right the legislative wrong.
That has happened
Democrats all know it and are back in their salons plotting new healthcare debacles.
You are correct. This dogma has pervaded this site for nearly 7 years. We need to be capable of more sophisticated analysis of this situation, but, alas, we seem more eager to embrace a simpleton's explanation of Roberts' action.

I don't see how it's possible to construe it that way. He allowed it to be a "tax", which the O administration had claimed it was not.
It was one of the most bent and tortured political opinions of all time that he appears to have changed to believing at the last minute.
He could have destroyed it with one vote. He didn't. He tortured this country for eight years with an insurance company debacle that hurt far more people, companies, and medical care than it helped.
