In his decision yesterday, Chief Justice John Roberts wrote that “we do not consider whether the [Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act] embodies sound policies.” That is, to put it mildly, an understatement.
While it may be constitutional, Obamacare remains fundamentally flawed legislation that creates a massive health care entitlement, slashes hundreds of billions of dollars from Medicare (endangering seniors’ access to care) and imposes hundreds of billions in taxes on the economy — hardly a recipe for escaping our current economic doldrums. Sooner or later, Congress will be forced to repeal and replace it.
