Roberts is a disgrace.
He showed his hand when he fabricated a way to save Obamacare with his ridiculous "It's a tax, not a fee" position.
I’ve NEVER paid a “government fee” that I didn’t consider a tax.
Disagree... it was a tax, thus back to the house it went. Had the Supreme Court issued a ruling conservatives had wanted it would have set the precedent in the future for a liberal Supreme Court to do whatever it wanted based on the precedent of that ruling.
He fabricated nothing, he read the damn thing and found out it was a tax and returned it back to where it belong.
What he basically did was handed it back to the uniparty in Congress and told the American citizens to do something about it. It’s on us. Time to repeal the 16th and 17th Amendment.

He sure did. I lost ALL faith in the “supreme” court at that point - the concept of allowing the government to compel us to buy whatever it is they demand we buy or pay a “tax” to them is obscene.
I look at it like the ULTRA intelligence the allies got during WWII...they couldn't use it all the time, or suspicions would be raised.
So the handlers of the ULTRA knowledge were occasionally put in the position of having to play God with ULTRA intelligence, and consign ships or units to an uncertain or bad fate instead of tipping them off.
Like Justice Roberts...they don't have to use him on every case. Only important ones. Like Obamacare, and a few others.
