What worries me is that he’s looking at it as about “some hypothetical young person increasing insurance costs “
when the argument is about “some hypothetical young person being forced to contribute to reduce other’s insurance costs “.
The government wants to require them to pay because they are such profitable insurance risks and that profit is going to be used to reduce medicare and medicaid costs.
The media has hid the fact that Obamacare is a system to force the young to contribute more towards older people’s healthcare and I hoped and expected that to be prominent in this hearing.
Kennedy is the lone liberal on the court, I can’t ever figure him out.
But any sign his heart is ‘bleeding’ is a bad sign.
“Kennedy is the lone liberal on the court, I can’t ever figure him out.”
Are you kidding me???
Leaving THAT one aside, Kennedy is indeed a swing vote - he’s often sided with the conservative justices for the good. Many 5-4 votes.
