Except that what Roberts thought to avoid politicking with his judicial restraint, he actually rewrote the law. And thus by avoiding the potholes on the road, he fell into the larger sinkhole.

Also CJ Roberts did not apply the same consistency, the same 'reasoning' to other recent high court rulings.

Since Roberts is unlikely to opine, one thing is for sure the working relationship with other 'conservative' justices was unpleasant at the moment.

Roberts is more like Uranus.

My theory is that Axlerod reintroduced Roberts to an old gay lover, and asked him if he would like it kept quiet, or not.

The missing Planet X is Roberts hidden homosexuality, IMHO.

So, in ROBERTSWORLD, states cannot be coerced by the federal government to enroll individuals in medicaid insurance, but individuals within those states can be coerced to acquire health insurance through a penalty/tax.

This fact alone makes the decison anti-constitutional.

Previous SC decisions have elevated the federal government interests above states’ interests, but this one vaults the states and establishes federal dominion over individuals.

Historic indeed.
