It’s clear by these comments that you have NOT read the dissent or are unfamiliar with citations,annotations etc. in the context of a judicial opinion.

As to your larger points (your next post) about what’s important I thought I addressed them and that we agreed.

If not then please be more clear or maybe just drop it.

It's clear by these comments that you wish to argue a case that is settled by arguing that the Dissent is the winning position instead of the Opinion.

That particular Congress knew exactly what it was doing.
It set the mandate up as a tax. It intended the "penalty" to be a tax as well and the debate indicates such.

I didn't think it was that hard to grok.
