Romney, rescind the regulation, President Romney will repeal the bill before the court hears it.
However, to further the point I just made to Dave, the derisive language he used, pointed directly at the left’s machinery was pretty explicit. The 5 on the right are not going to save Democrats from their own bad legislation.
Or do you really think, they’re going to re-write the coverage?
Look you and the talking heads are not going to convince us that which Mr. Genious couldn’t convince Scalia, Thomas, Alito, and Kennedy.
To cut and paste from Mr. Denninger earlier:
“And worse, none of them has proposed a damn thing to deal with what the Supreme Court just did, which is grant a permanent ability to the Federal Government to compel any behavior by linking it to a tax. Some examples of where this can (and might in the near future!) go include:
•You make cars. You’re told to sell a car to anyone who makes under $25,000 a year for $5,000. This is of course under your cost of production. If you refuse, every car you make is subject to a $5,000 tax. This is now Constitutional, as of this last week.
•You would like to have three kids. The government decides that you may have only two. If you have get pregnant with a third and refuse to have an abortion you must pay $10,000 a year in additional tax forever. This is now Constitutional, as of last week.
•You may have all the abortions you want, but each costs $10,000 in tax. This is Constitutional, as of last week.
•You must eat Broccoli and submit receipts with your 1040 proving you bought 1lb of Broccoli per person in your household per week. If you do not, you must pay $5,000 in additional tax. This is Constitutional, as of last week.
•If you are more than 10lbs overweight you must pay $2,000 of additional tax for every 10lbs overweight you are, with no cap. This is Constitutional, as of last week.”
Welcome to the new state. They own us.
