From your link:

“Congress cannot compel you to purchase insurance; it can only compel you to pay a non-extreme, non-coercive tax if you wish not to purchase insurance.”

But here’s the problem: if congress cannot compel you to purchase insurance, how can they compel you to pay a tax for refusing to purchase insurance???

Isn’t the latter a form of compulsion???????

This ruling is utterly ridiculous!

Of course it is.

It may turn out to be more important to overturn yesterday's USSC ruling than to overturn Obamacare.
