Just read Roberts’ opinion. He says that although Congress did not intend for Obamacare to be a tax, HE has decided that it is a tax. This is the greatest case of “legislating from the bench” that we’ve ever seen.

He knows better. The only thing that makes sense to me is blackmail. Is he gay? Were his children adopted illegally? Has to be something. Constitutionally, his opinion makes absolutely no sense.

Roberts just neutered OBAMA's campaign plan to run against all of theRepublicans on the Supreme Court if they DARED to overturn his Affortable Care Act.

And he said that the legislature has the power to legislate tax increases....which is what this is,

What they cannot do is withhold FUNDS to the STATE GOVERNMENTs for current lawful agreements already legislated if they fail to meet the NEW REQUIRMENTS of the new Affortable Care Act.

That was the HAMMER that the 29 STATE AG's filed suit over.
