"Congress cannot compel Americans to buy and maintain health insurance"

---------------------

Slapdown from the Court: “The individual mandate was enacted as a regulatory penalty, not a revenue-raising tax, and is therefore unconstitutional”...“This economic mandate represents a wholly novel and potential unbounded assertion of congressional authority: The ability to compel Americans to purchase an expensive health insurance product they have elected not to buy, and to make them re-purchase that insurance product every month for their entire lives.”

I’m not even worried about the Vinson decision appeal anymore. This thing is signed, sealed, delivered, and ready for a ruling from the Supremes.
