In writing the deciding opinion that Obamacare was in fact constitutional Chief Justice John Roberts justified or rather rationalized his abandonment of the Constitution with the cavalier observation to the effect that it was not the job of the Court to correct unwise legislation, that was the province of Congress.
The problem, Mr. Chief Justice, is that nobody, especially not Congressmen, knew what was in the legislation when it passed, indeed we have the third in line for the presidency of the United States telling us we had to pass the legislation to know what's in it. Now we find out that what's in it is nothing less than wholesale abdication of article 1 legislative responsibilities, the handing off to unnamed, faceless bureaucrats a virtually unfettered hunting license to create a healthcare regime as and when they see fit.
Mr. Chief Justice, you have abdicated your responsibilities no less than has the Congress of the United States. Congress will not legislate and the courts will not adjudicate but both wash their hands of the evil bureaucrats do. Try to get a court to seriously rule on a "regulation"-one can be more than half serious when he describes regulations as being treated by the courts as more sacrosanct than the Constitution itself.
Is a pity that we can't find a way to bring an action and complain that the runaway regulators are working hardship on African-Americans, or transvestites, or Mohicans (if we can find any) and then we could place the entire regime of healthcare regulators under 24/7 merciless scrutiny by the courts.
