In what way would Mrs. Thomas benefit? On a “regressive” extension, if ObamaCare is struck down, in what way would the Mrs. Thomas directly benefit?...credibility does not carry a monetary benefit unless proven post facto. Keep in mind, too, that she is not the organization, in principal. She is essentially a worker drone.
If my comments regarding EPA legislation benefits my employer, am I directly responsible for the benefit to my comapny that employs me to interpret and comment? Not until I am called as a “material witness”.
Same for Mrs. Thomas. If she receives a direct bonus/pay raise for her work in getting ObamaCare struck down, then yes she benfits. If she receives an annual bonus from the organization according to her merit in moving the group forward, is that really directly tied to the SCOTUS decision?
let me repeat, Mrs. Thomas heads an organization that lobbies against Obamacare. The Supreme Court striking down the legislation would be a major victory for her group and would enhance its influence.
AND, everyone is assuming Mrs. Thomas would benefit by striking down Obamacare.
But if Obamacare is struck down, then Mrs. Thomas has worked herself out of a job. Mission accomplished - no more Obamacare.
So one could argue that Mrs. Thomas would benefit more by Obamacare NOT being struck down, so that she still has something to lobby against! LOL
