In light of the Supreme Court's ruling
on ObamaCare, my only response is “We're screwed!”
It seems it took the majority,
including Chief Justice Roberts, all kinds of elaborate and painfully
twisted reasoning to justify the continuing existence of this
godawful law.
While all hope is not lost, meaning it
will take Congress to kill this law, repealing the ACA will probably
have to wait until after the November elections, assuming Obama is
kicked out of office bag and baggage and Harry Reid ends up as the
Senate Minority leader. Otherwise we're stuck with a law that will
seriously cripple a sixth of the American economy with draconian
regulations and taxes. (One has to remember that the ACA requires 10
years of tax revenues to fund 6 years of benefits which is why the
major part (and most expensive) doesn't go into effect until 2014.
But what happens after those 6 years pass? Tax hikes, that's what.)
So once again the will of the American
people is overridden by our supposed “betters” and we're still
going to get stuck with the bill for their 'party'.
