You are not correct.
The vote on the commerce clause argument was 4-1-4, NO ONE joined CJ Roberts' opinion on that (perhaps his switch was so late that there was not enough time), but Roberts' musings about the commerce clause had exactly ONE vote, it is therefore NOT precedent, and when the next communist is appointed to the court it will be flushed down the crapper anyway.

I read some of these posts with frustration. PLEASE stop listening to pundits people. PLEASE think for yourselves. There is nothing good that comes from this ruling. There is no “gutting” of the Commerce Clause. None whatsoever. This is just a “it works under the taxing authority” thing. In fact, it doesn’t even make it a tax. Congress passes all sorts of laws pursuant to the taxing authority that aren’t a “tax”. (Tax deductions being the obvious example.)
Conservatives are often way too reactionary and don’t stop to think.
Demographics are very much against us. We need to think to survive.
This was a f*** up of epic proportions.
