“They find a way to wiggle out of this too.”
No. It is either legally legislated or not. The answer is not. Roberts is neither stupid or liberal. It was a ruling that needed another ruling and he knew it. Just my opinion. There is nothing but a legal opinion required here. Whether it gets kicked down the stairs or not will be up to the legislative branch...they levy taxes. This is a tax. Which is what a conservative would believe.
Roberst is not ignorant nor is he stupid, I think that he was asked to rule on a very narrow group of questions and for some reason, no one thought to ask if the whole thing was unconstitutionally passed.
I agree. He basically said they COULD do this if they do it under the taxing power.
But it’s simply not written that way, and the very first person that gets dinged will have standing to challenge it.
