Go to team blue websites and talk to team blue people (who don’t know what you really think).

They are LIVID that the USSC is so “right wing”.

That gives me pause enough to think.

Both Kavanaugh and Coney Barrett were Bush era loyalists.

Should we be surprised they are acting like Bush Republicans?

...there is broad public support for its requirement that insurance companies must cover pre-existing health conditions.

Cool! Does that mean we can cover pre-existing conditions with my car insurance? I can go without insurance, then when I have an accident, just demand that they cover the incident because it's pre-existing.

In other more important rulings, SCOTUS just ruled UNANIMOUSLY in favor of a Catholic curch adoption agency’s right to not consider LGBT couples as a
foster parents. Pretty remarkable. Freedom won one today.

Exactly. I was never in favor of the picks after learning g their positions on key jssues before they were elected. Gorsuch I didn’t know much about at the time but kav and Amy I didn’t like for picks. Kavs positions on certain gay issues was t very solid conservative. His answers sounded like he would side with democrats on the issue if they came before the court. Amy gave a few worrying answers too, but I thought at the time ‘perhaps she’ll be OK, jury is still put on her totally, but so far, not liking her positions on certain cases so far. But then again I’m not a lawyer so maybe I don’t understznd all the subtleties of the cases, but some decisions by her just don’t appear to be solid conservative

I don’t blame the Supreme Court. The republicans have been saying for years they have a better plan. Even with 3 branches they couldn’t come up with a replacement. There is no reason to get rid of obamacare if republicans have no idea what to do after.

This is why our insurance deductibles are $15,000.00 .
Obama care hurt twice as many as it supposedly helped .

It’s amazing though how many lawyers there are who bring cases with no standing because cases ,eep getting thrown out for lack of standing. Can’t they forsee that their case doesn’t have standing?

It’s because the whole thing is theater, an act put on by red state AGs as they campaign for reelection or higher office. They knew it wouldn’t work, but now they can rail against Washington, tell their voters that they tried their best but the system is rigged, and if those voters will keep giving money and votes, they’ll continue to fight.

I was happy with healthcare before Obamacare, good service at reasonable rates. Replace it with what was in place decades ago.

“Obamacare,” should be called “Robertscare!”

The compromised Chief Justice is simply doing what his master dictates.

Obamecare is a government forced policy you buy into it or your fined that is unconstitutional his plan sucked it cost people to pay more for medical treatments.
It’s like the government telling what car you must but buy it’s a major scam for the democrats single payer plan.
The democrats can’t do anything right for the public only for themselves.
