Not it isn’t since it was enacted by criminal scum.

An Obama administration lawyer, urging caution, said it would be "extraordinary" for the court to throw out the entire law. About 2.5 million young people under age 26 are on their parents' insurance now because of the new law. If it were struck down entirely, "2.5 million of them would be thrown off the insurance rolls," said Edwin Kneedler.When my children turn 25, I expect them to be taking care of me, not the other way around.
A significant number of these "under 26 adults" are college student. Just about every, if not all colleges and unvirsities at the undergrad and grad level offer low cost health insurance that every student must purchase unless they can show coverage under another policy.
The big problem that I see is not with the striking of this provision, but what happens to the money that we have already paid in higher premimuims to implement Obamacare. We provide health insurance to all of our eligible empoloyees. Our premiums have gone up 30% to 40% a year since the enactment of Obamacare. If Obamacare is struck, are we gong to get any of the money back? Didn't think so.

The administration indicated it was prepared to accept a ruling that some of the insurance reforms should fall if the mandate were struck down. I don't give a good Goddamn what the 'administration is prepared to accept'. If it's struck down, the Marxists in the People's House can just deal with it.

"Kids up to the age of 26 have been able to remain on their parents insurance plans for quite a while, long before anyone ever heard of this law."
I think that's if the kids are in college. This is no matter what. I've heard of "kids" that are actually married and still eligible to be on their parents medical plan up to 26. That's ridiculous.
To: longtermmemmory
That 26 year old coverage provision could be passed all by itself.
That provision is just as unconstitutional as the mandate. These legislators and reporters and everyone else who's worring about losing the things they like if pieces or all of this obamanation is thrown out, never bother to ask if it was constitutional, despite whether they like it or not.

are these the same folks that applaud the “marriage is between one man and one woman” Proposition voted by a majority in California, be struck down by “unelected” individuals?
To: TexasRedeye
"As just reported on FOX, the Obama administration is saying it is a shame that a law can be overturned by unelected individuals!"
At least they are constitutional and have to be vetted by the Senate per the constitution. Unlike your Czars comrade Obama...

This is just disgusting. 25-year-olds living in mom’s basement and having medical insurance through her. Say what you want about us Boomers, but we never sank that low.

The article is from last Thursday.
Next time you have a link almost a week old let people know.

I think that is a safe bet. If she did spill the beans to Obama’s people, is there any type of penalty? She already refused to recuse herself. I doubt the Conservatives will treat her kindly after this.

You mean, Congress will have to read it next time?

there are provisions that could stand alone. They should be INDIVIDUALLY debated and cleanly passed up or down.

"So, When the have nothing to report, they regurgitate old news?" No, they INVENT it. The article states: "The Supreme Court's conservative justices said Wednesday they are prepared to strike down President Obamas healthcare law entirely."
The "conservative justices" said no such thing. This is an invented quote to begin the Obama re-election offensive against the "conservative justices".
