Precisely because there will be no small-business driven economic recovery where the rules are not rules, except for some. There is no way to calculate nor project any margin of profit in such an environment, and venture capital just won't be forthcoming.
The uncertainty of Obamacare alone (and now the continued uncertainty over repeal of any or all of it and the battles yet to be fought at the State level) all contribute to the lack of economic recovery. Even those small businesses in the few relatively prosperous areas of the country balk at hiring because of this.
It also does not escape me that two of the votes at SCOTUS in favor of the measure were Obama appointees, and one of those was involved in creating Obamacare and should have recused. Void those votes, with the appointments, and no Obamacare.
If the supreme law of the land is not upheld, there is no law, except at the State and local level; the Federal Government has lost its legitimacy.

We can pretend it is by shaking our fist: "Let Obama try to ban guns! Good luck with that, it's OUR right".
But we can also pretend that Obama's the first real Conservative in the WH since Ronald Reagan, I suppose, if we wanted.
Does not mean it's reality.
I agree with all that you have written.
