SCOTUS-HealthCare Reform

Post by Ibanez »

SCOTUS upholds mandate. Roberts sides with the Left in his decision. THis is definetly a game changer. So, what else can the Gov't force us to buy?

Ha. Good one.
Then why does the CNN headline say "Correction: SCOTUS Backs All Parts of Obamacare"?

Somebody's confused somewhere. :lol:

I think the decision surprised some of the networks - CNN- in a rush to get it first, got it wrong and Fox is so stunned they haven't even put on their site yet what the decision even was. :lol: :lol: :roll: :roll:

Roberts himself voted to uphold the legislation - by a 5-4 margin.

Move on, nothing more to see here.

The court ruled that the mandate is unconstitutional, but it can stay as part of Congress's power under a taxing clause. The court said that the government will be allowed to tax people for not having health insurance.

"The Affordable care act's requirement that certain individuals pay a financial penalty for not obtaining health insurance may reasonably characterized as a tax. Because the Constitution permits such a tax, it is not our role to forbid it, or to pass upon its wisdom or fairness," the court said in the ruling.

Now reading the CNN bloggers try to defend their fuggup:

Lisa Desjardins: "Important to say that (obviously) this is a complicated ruling and Roberts' did say indiv. mandate could not stand under Commerce Clause."

Wow. In reading about the Obamacare ruling, I stumbled upon a ruling earlier in the day. SCOTUS found that lies are protected under the first amendment and it is not a crime to lie about earning military medals.

Hot damn. My resume just got a little but longer.

So basically, the opinion of the majority is that the mandate is pretty much a tax. Brilliant. So i guess it's okay for us to pay taxes to private businesses now. I say we start paying taxes to all the donk's trial lawyer friends and cut out the middle men.

You know, I was pretty sure I was going to vote third party or indy but I think I've got to go with Romney now. This abortion of a health care "reform" law needs to be destroyed.
