Well Roberts also made himself a POS. He violated the Constitution himself. HE can’t implement taxation. No one including the lower courts even argued for such a thing. It came directly out of left field, and is a total violation of the Constitution.
So I don’t really care why he did it to be honest. It’s stupid, and illegal for him to do so.
John Roberts hung the truth around Obama’s neck. Obamacare is a TAX. ( Regardless what Bark wanted to call it to get it through. )
Now the Republicans can drive that baby home for repeal, as the jobless can’t afford such a tax, and the rest of us will be jobless soon for having to float this boatload of tax. And apparently states can reject it entirely now, without being threatened by Sebelius with her big hammer to withdraw all Medicaid from states who rebel.
