Throw in the fact that the entire Obamacare legislation treats individuals, and individual states DIFFERENTLY and we have a clear cut case of a VIOLATION OF THE EQUAL PROTECTION CLAUSE of the United States Constitution.

I've been arguing that point for awhile now here on FR!!!

It is an unapportioned direct tax, a violation of the Constitution. The income tax is a direct tax, it required an Amendment to be legal.

I'm not an attorney, but aren't the plaintiffs (the small businessmen) arguing that the fed govt cannot give subsidies to individuals in states that did not setup exchanges. How is this a violation of equal protection?
