Trick question. I think the ruling was legally correct, as was the previous one three years ago. The problem - literally the elephant in the American living room - is that a healthcare law was made a part of the tax code. Congress did that. And the problem with it is the American people don't know that there are limits to the tax code, because the taxing agencies have been allowed to run amuck, and the Courts won't tell anyone how to safely challenge those limits.

So, effectively, Obamacare is applied to everyone, when legally, it is severely restricted in application. But when no one knows that, they can't demand Congress and the Courts show them how to safely invoke those limits. Not because it can't be done - but because no one knows it even exists.

Roberts pointed to those limits in his previous, infamous, Obamacare ruling, and I posted about it then. But people are never so blind as when they think they already know the answer - even when they admit their own answer doesn't make any sense.

I almost wish I didn't know the answer. Watching the country go down because no one believes the "exit door" is real is far worse than if there actually wasn't an exit door.
