Amid all the “we are doomed” and the “America is finished” pronouncements I would like to interject a bit of reason.

There is nothing passed by one Congress and signed by one President that cannot be undone by another Congress and signed by another President.

Elections are in November.

There is also a silver lining in this ruling, in that there was at least ONE big fat ugly camel that could not be passed through the eye of the needle called “interstate commerce”. According to the ruling Congress doesn't have the power to do ANYTHING based upon some tangential effect upon interstate commerce - although they DO still have the power to tax.

As such 0bamacare is the largest tax increase in USA history.

A tax that falls unfairly upon the young and healthy (who are on average less well off) to subsidize the health care of the elderly (who are on average the Americans with the greatest accumulation of wealth).

A very UNPOPULAR tax to fund a very UNPOPULAR program.

The electoral mandate from the next election should be clear - rejection of the government takeover of health-care and the largest tax increase in US history.

The decision was clear. The fed govt can make you do anything, pay anything for anything as long as they call it a tax.
