That bit about the subsidies only being applicable to insurance purchase on a state exchange — brought to you by Sen. Harry Reid’s office as a late addition to the bill.

So they really, really can’t say that this was not the intent of the Law, else why would they have felt the need to add specific language?

It was added to entice states to create exchanges - it was specifically designed to force states to stop balking at the law and get on board. THAT WAS THE INTENT!
