re: #63 freetoken

The problem could easily be resolved with a Constitutional amendment. Yet with the current makeup of the legislatures of the 50 states it is unlikely that the needed amendment could get the required number passed.

That kinda negates the whole “easily” thing.

Also, most Constitutional scholars (an overwhelming majority) think that the ACA is perfectly Constitutional as is. The individual mandate was proposed by the Heritage Foundation (!) fer Chrisakes, and virtually every GOP senior party member had endorsed it back in the 90’s. It only became “unconstitutional death panels FREEDOM!!!11ty!” when the black guy with the funny name got elected. The fact that the SCOTUS appears ready to throw out the ACA based on nothing more than Fox News talking points tells you that even amending the Constitution may not help in this case if the judges no longer give a shit what the document says.
