“Otherwise, Ibama still has to get congress to fund this monstrosity.”

If I recall correctly, a significant portion of the funding (the new funding, over and above funds in the existing appropriations) will come from the individual mandate “penalties”, and other hidden taxes/penalties contained in the 2,000 pages of ACA. The level of taxation and setting of minimum/maximum penalties will be left up to the Director of HHS.

In other words, unless Congress actually repeals the whole thing it appears to me that Obamacare will have its own funding mechanism built in.

What a mess!

I have not gleaned this anywhere. But didn’t all that change with this ruling?
The mandates stand but must go through Congress for funding and is not automatic (my word)?
