Obamacare should be a political decision, not legal. Therefore I concur with CJ Roberts on this. Congress has the power to tax anything and everything in any amount they can get passed.

This should energize Tea-Party voters and therefore is a net plus for November 2012 elections.

LOL Except that it isn’t a tax because it cannot be defined as one.

Is it:

A Sales tax? No. no sale here.
An income tax? Nope no income here.
An investment tax? No investment either.
A death tax? Nah.
A corporate tax ? Nope. it is on individual as well.
A real estate tax? no.

Well what is such a thing as this if it is not a FINE for not purchasing something that the government ORDERS you to buy as a consequence of living in America?

It walks like a duck... not a tax

The Tea Partiers we voted in in 201 have voted consistently for totalitarian laws. Why do you think more tea partiers in Congress will be any better? This is the “when we still could” time as in “Why didn’t I leave when I still could?”
