"Remember too, that the severability clause was REMOVED from the final law, and therefore if the mandate goes down, so should the entire horrid piece of legislation."

It's not that simple.

Maybe no. Maybe yes. But recall too that this “legislation” has no limiting factors put in it (deliberately). Even Kennedy (most dangerous vote) recognized as a major problem. In other words, for this crap being upheld, it opens the door for unlimited powers of the Federal government in many ways. A clear and present danger and in direct conflict with the original founding documents which limit government power to protect the people, etc, etc.

There are many reasons to trash this travesty.
