That's the interesting thing. According to the majority decision, the case wasn't premature because the mandate wasn't intended by Congress to be a tax. But then as Roberts was writing his opinion, apparently, it somehow became a tax. Talk about legislating from the bench. |
Oh yeah, Obama was all worried about "Conservative Judicial Activism."
Wonder if he'll acknowledge the activism in the fact that the court ruled a way that both sides rejecetd. (well I don't... but it's ironic.)
It was a clear case of the court not wanting to stick with the status quo healthcare and finding any legal loophole they could to get it to pass because it was obviously unconsitutuitonal from the commerce clause to anyone who looked at it objectivly.
