If 2 (Republican appointed) out of 3 justices gut this law, it would be based on a typo!

they would also erode democracy....

Obama was elected TWICE, the people in part voted for him because of the ACA.

How do republicans run saying they took your healthcare AWAY? This is horrendous.

The big issue here is that judges are getting themselves too involved in politics.

The government must be able to make new policies according to its democratic mandate.

It isn't for judges to insert themselves and undo the consequences of elections.

One can interpret words in all sorts of ways. But the court should not reject the spirit of a law that was central to an election victory. That is except in very unusual circumstances. And this isn't one of them.
