Are you sure?

They've ruled it unconstitutional under the commerce clause, but it's still taxable? What the hell?

Now that it has been declared a tax by SCOTUS, Obama now has to support it as a tax in the Presidential election campaign....

LOL monumental thread fail.

Republicans flip-flopped and were arguing that it was a tax in order to have the case heard before 2014. Turns out they got exactly what they asked for.

The point of it is that if someone refuses to obtain insurance, then they pay a penalty, aka tax.

Obviously these people are assholes, but for the life of me I can't understand how you can pass a law saying that lying to make yourself look better is a criminal act. Frankly, I'm surprised there were 3 dissenters.

So whose election coverage should we watch in November?

The decision is what I would term a pyrrhic victory... upon which the Democrats must now explain to the American people in the middle of a severe recession why they are levying half a billion dollars worth of new job killing taxes on the failing economy. I think this 'victory' is going to be one they will come to regret...
