I summarize....I think this is all an attempt to force congress to do its job. Why the Supremes felt such a thing was needed....I’m not sure why but it’s a good concept...congress doing its job.

I pretty much agree with you. And I am not so comfortable with a country that expects 9 unelected people in black robes to make our most vital decisions for us. Obamacare was passed because liberals won elections. Ideally, it should be overturned because conservatives take a stand on it and win elections themselves. The people stand a better chance of controlling the country for our own good when we are calling the shots, not 9 unelected people in black robes. And we sure as heck ought to take control of the Constitution by amending it for clarity on issues like these instead of hoping that the court just happens to have enough unelected people in black robes on it to interpret it the right way.

Refreshing thought!
