I suspect Roberts rues the day he ever let the government force somebody to buy insurance to begin with, calling it a tax or whatever.

Of course, it is hard to put milk back in the cow.

But, Obamacare will evolve quite a bit over the next few years.

I hope I am correct, but I do not think that Roberts has the stones to throw millions of people's health care into jeopardy.

You mean that there is a possibility that the people will come to their senses and adopt a single payer plan? We can but hope though I am not holding my breath.

As for the fate of the ACA, I think the court is even less likely to want to scuttle the program than they were the last time they had the chance. And the Supreme Court finds reasons to do what it wants, and not to do what it doesn't want.

I don't think that this hyper partisan Supreme Court wants to open up this can of worms ahead of the '16 elections. Just my take on it and my .02 cents FWIW. That and a buck will get you a cuppa coffee...

Shows how far the conservatives on the court are willing to stoop.
