Liberals are hyper-ventilating about a poorly drafted law.

If the SCOTUS guts it, they’ll have no one to blame for it but themselves.

Obamacare is a victim of its own inability to attain its proclaimed objective of ensuring affordable health care for the population.

There is nothing ambiguous, “exchange established by the state” is not “exchange established within a state” or “exchange established by the HHS Secretary”.

It is ridiculous to assert that Congress would delegate to an Executive agency the decision to collect and to disburse billions of dollars.

Right. Supports Judge Robert Bork’s strong argument for the Constitution being interpreted by the text as originally understood and intended.

There is much constitutional support for state nullification of unconstitutional acts like Obamacare, including the Supremacy Clause and the Ninth and Tenth Amendments.

FYI, link below discusses how state nullification of unconstitutional federal acts was contemplated at our founding as part of the federalist concept.

Blood-bought liberty acquiesced to tyrants without a shot fired?

God, help me and others to live free or die in its defense.

Good constitutional-based decisions as precedent supporting valid grounds for states assessing Obamacare as unconstitutional and rejecting it as such.

I'm almost starting to think the Federal exchange was set up on challenge to the states....an "I'll show you" ploy by Obama.

What the states who didn't sign up for the grants "and control" by the Fed govt effectively did was to tell him....stay out of our state.

I keep watching some "mind bending" wording about Obamacare.

It goes something like this.

The Federal Government set up state Exchanges in those states where the state did not want to run it.

But the timing doesn't seem to fit. There was no Fed Led exchange site to go to for years.
