There is a silver lining to the court decision if (a) the voters of the US wake up and move in the direction of freedom and (b) elected officials actually move in the direction of freedom.

Roberts put a major roadblock in the way of the Left by preventing the use of the commerce clause as a basis for further encroachment.

He also exposed ObamaCare to future action by the people and congress.

But will we take action? That is the question.

There's a better chance of the Chicago Cubs winning this year's World Series, than that happening.

He didn't prevent the use of the commerce clause; he made its use totally superfluous. What he said is, anything Congress *cannot* do via the Commerce Clause, it *can* do via coercive and punitive taxation.
