I was (mostly) right about Obamacare
The Supreme Court issued its decision this morning upholding almost all of the Affordable Care Act (also known as Obamacare). I haven’t read it all, but I’ve read major parts of it. Contrary to my prediction (see my blog post of June 26th), they upheld the individual mandate as a tax and not as regulation of interstate commerce, and Justice Kennedy joined the dissenters and not the majority. But the big picture is that the ACA is constitutional. This is great news for all Americans, even those who think it’s not.
