[QUOTE="roadrunner2012, post: 956832, member: 40736"] Talking points from a partisan point of view. The fact of the matter is the Constitution gives Congress the right to “regulate commerce . . . among the several states.” I find it amusing that a certain party is all for States Rights, except when it isn't. If the decision comes down to a 5-4 vote to overturn the law, it will reflect poorly on the SCOTUS. For Scalia to toss out catch phrases is demeaning to the stature of the SCOTUS. The phrase about reading it is absurd. It has half the words that the bible contains, and I'm sure he's read that. Severability is the main sticking point. If the mandate is ruled unconstitutional, the rest of the ACA will fall. Of course, if the court rules against the ACA, they would then be forced to uphold States rights in other matters, like legalization of marijuana, or speed limits. The ironic thing is the Heritage Institute support the individual mandate. If a Republican president had put forth this law, there would be no argument. This is Partisan politics at it's worse. You people crack me up. [/QUOTE]
