If it interests you, do it!
If it doesn't, well, it's your call. But if you do do it, please remember that a
lot of your readers *have* universal health care, and don't understand all this
American angst, so please try and cater for your non-American readership :-)
Cheers,

Please, the ruling was read almost immediately after publishing.
There is not one word in the ruling discussing the constitutionality of
ObamaCare as a tax. The only statements in the ruling referring to OnamaCare
concerning is or is not ObamaCare a tax or not. Not to the constitutionality of
ObamaCare as a tax.
As ObamaCare is a tax it is a poll tax. That is a tax on people existence.
Does the constitution allow the federal government to place a tax on one
existence?
The 24th amendment says a state can not place a poll tax on people for the
purpose of voting.
Does this mean that a state can not place a poll tax on a person for health
care?
And that is as a state right to tax which is much broader than the federal
government's right. So we are back to the question of 'Does the federal
government have the right to level a poll tax on an individual for the purpose
of health care?'
The one thing Roberts assured by declaring ObamaCare a tax is that this motions
to declare ObamaCare unconstitutional as a poll tax will be filed at the first
opportunity.
This is far from over with folks.
Not only is it far from over with it is hilarious in the extreme if you oppose
ObamaCare and understand the poll tax issues.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
