Supreme Court decides: Health care mandate stands

Choosing a $695 penalty over health insurance? That's a choice, not a denial of liberty.
ROBERTS is the swing vote F##KING PRICELESS, suck on that.
So what you’re saying is either PAY for this or PAY for that. You call that a choice? That’s like saying “You have two choices, either jump off this 100’ cliff or that 110’ cliff”. The end result is the same, you are FORCED to pay for something you may not want to buy; if you don’t you must PAY the penalty/tax.

But the bigger fundamental part you seem to be ignoring is that Obamacare was pushed through and passed as a 'commerce' bill. We have quote after quote of Obama saying it's NOT a tax. Now the court is saying this does not meet constitutional muster under the commerce clause but it does as a tax. And Obama is touting this as a win. Obama should be infuriated with this decision on two grounds: 1) Roberts and the assenting voters changed the intent of the law and 2) Now Obama can’t escape being caught up in a lie that we wont see a dime of our taxes go up. Will now we will. A potential political nuclear bomb. This is being reported as the biggest tax hike in history. And you libs feel good about that?

...now you get it.:whistle:
What I get is you're only interested in disparaging those you disagree with rather than trying to engage in meaningful debate. While you’re simplistically jumping on the Obama train and swallowing this piece of liberal artwork, because your blinded ideology requires it, some of us are trying to make an honest effort to try to understand this whole mess.

So, do you have anything substantive to offer to the discussion?

You need to go back a few post and reread some of what your bretheran GOPers wrote to understand my feelings.What mess ...this is not rocket science.people will not be dropped for a pre exsisting condition,health coverage will go from 55% of the country to 95% by 2014,people will now be treated to help stay well not just when they are sick......and yes the big one if you want to stay on were you are now ...you can or you can pick your own,more medicine will be coverd by Medicare,once the every day citizens read and are expland to what this all entails you're going to wonder what the fuss was all about.:coffee:

Giatone is a true mental retard. Quoting the left garbage verbatim. I would bet he has never run a single for profit business his entire liberal life. Here is all the skinny you will ever need to know. In order to cover 30 million people who dont pay squat now, the remainder of us taxpayers will have to foot the bill. However you play the numbers and however you wanna hide and fineagle the numbers, the bottom line is that those who dont have coverage now will be getting it at the expense of those who pay taxes now. Plain and simple this is another social welfare program disguised as a great fix for health coverage. Typical liberal mentality. The reason many dont have coverage is brutally simple. Its too frigin expensive!!!! The liberal answer is to simply take from those that produce to pay for those that cant afford. How about addressing some of the root problems as to WHY its so expensive??? Because medicine has become so damn corrupted with the legal system, paperwork, lawsuits, malpractice insurance, etc... It gets passed along to the consumer while the lawyers line their pockets like everywhere else on the planet.

Gotta love when people talk about how simple something is and then immediately say something fundamentally incorrect...

Let's see if they can figure out what is wrong.

A big part of the reason that medical is so expensive for those of us with insurance is that we are already paying for all of those who either can't afford or CHOOSE NOT TO PAY FOR THEIR OWN coverage. Our present (old) system provides them with medical care, no one in need is refused treatment, but we are doing it in the most expensive way possible.

I wasn't in favor of Obamacare and I don't like the way the SCOTUS handled their decision, but the reality is that we the people were already paying for the poor and the deadbeats.

Jon Stewart mocks reactions to the health care ruling | The Raw Story

health care


Lets listen to John Stewart, the true master of all knowledge on the subject of health care. Health costs have spiraled due to legal issues and (as "thatguy" says above), the fact that we are all paying for those that dont pay. At a very minimum, those that dont pay for insurance in this country are most probably not competing with those that do for the highest quality care. Obamacare wants to put everyone on the same playing field regardless of how much they pay now. And that is Socialism 101. This is a simple case of those who have paying for those who cant once again. While possibly a debateable moral dilema, it runs contrary to promoting fiscal prosperity in this nation.

Another liberal that criticizes others for the very thing they use as their primary tactic.

Let’s go through this ‘rocket science’:

Does Obama (and you) agree with the court’s decision?

Do you realize the decision deemed Obamacare a tax?

Do you realize Obama said it isn’t a tax, yet agrees with the court’s decision?

You do realize that if you disagree that it’s a tax then you have to reject the court’s decision?

You realize Obama promised we wouldn’t see a dime of taxes go up, yet he praises the court’s decision that this will indeed raise our taxes at the largest level in American history?

You do realize this is yet another promise broken by Obama?

So you just want to argue about the semantics of the situation?

Who cares if obama called it a penalty and the SCOTUS calls it a tax. As Larry's thread on the subject suggests there might be a silver lining in that argument.

Nothing has really chafed about Obama care other than that. He promised socialized medicine and he delivered. Calling the penalty a tax really doesn't affect much at all. It is very doutlbful that the people who were going to vote for Obama care what you call it. And the folks on the right weren't going to be happy or vote for him anyway.

LOL....God how I love the GOP crying..............

On a side note every year it costs more to repeal the law, which explodes the deficit. CBO says repeal would costs $230 billion. Basically Republicans are full of donkey dung when they say repeal and replace. :wench:
