the health law’s requirement that most Americans carry insurance will become unconstitutional next year and so will consumer protections forbidding insurers to deny coverage to sick customers or charge them more.
My immediate reaction was 'WTF? The Constitution is scheduled to change next year?' The answer is no, the tax law is. The tax penalty for not carrying insurance, that went with the ACA, is scheduled to go away in January. Now the Justice Department is arguing that this somehow makes the pre-existing condition mandate unconstitutional.

The Federal Court would do the Repubs a huge favor by drop-kicking this one to oblivion. But if it's one of the new wing-nut judges.....
