I am reminded of the saying “well butter my butt & call me a biscuit!” Roberts buttered it up & called/ruled it a ‘tax’, even without the word ‘tax’ being present. I don’t think we should look a gift horse in the mouth. A ‘tax’ is much easier to defeat & since it was passed in reconciliation, it can be repealed in reconciliation which means 51 votes, not 60 & the Dems cannot fillibuster. Now we just need to vote in enough Senators to do it & a President to sign it (plus hold the House, of course).

"I don’t think we should look a gift horse in the mouth."

I for one certainly do not, and I praise Justice Roberts for having so much wisdom in giving us this GIFT, for now and for the future. It will take some time for many to understand this.
