This law was passed by Congress, signed by the President and is now affirmed by the Supreme Court, including the conservative Justice Roberts. Every branch of the US government confirms it, so take your broccoli argument elsewhere and get out of this country. Go to Canada...oh wait, they have universal healthcare. Well then you can go to Greenland. Nope. Iceland? No. Norway? New Zealand? Japan? Germany? Belgium? United Kingdom? Kuwait? Sweden? Bahrain? Brunei? Netherlands? Austria? United Arab Emirates? Finland? Slovenia? Denmark? Luxembourg? France? Australia? Ireland? Italy? Portugal? Cyprus? Greece? Spain? South Korea? Hong Kong? Singapore? Switzerland? Israel? Man, they all have that evil universal healthcare, where are you selfish Republican gonna go? Oh, I know, you can go to Syria. I heard it's lovely this time of year.
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Thursday left standing the basic provisions of the health care overhaul, ruling that the government may use its taxation powers to push people to buy health insurance.
The narrowly delineated decision was a victory for President Obama and Congressional Democrats, with a 5-4 majority, including the conservative chief justice, John G. Roberts Jr., affirming the central legislative pillar of Mr. Obama's presidency.
Chief Justice Roberts, the author of the majority opinion, surprised observers by joining the court's four more liberal members in the key finding and becoming the swing vote.
