The hubris of NOT putting in a severability clause is astonishing... and laughable.

I still don't believe a word that comes out of any reporter's mouth. We could easily be Mahili’d.

The insurance lobby probably would not allow them to keep the severability clause. It was in there but it was removed before passage.

If you remember, they had to make the bill unserverable to make it palatable back in 2010 to the wavering dumbocrats. Without the mandate, there was no way to pay for the exploding costs of all the goodies in the bill. The mandate forced all the young people to kick money into the system and that's how they counted on paying for this monstrosity.
