The medicaid part of the decision is problematic. As one who favored single payer, well the BO care will not work as to how you pay for it as it falls way short of covering the real cost BUT the current system stinks as well. Bottom line now they will have to fix it AND IT WILL INVOLVE TAXES and lots of them. You don't pay the Doc with a chicken or pig anymore and many can not afford health care now. Time to move into this century but AM is right it needs to not be built into employers cost as businesses can not compete in foreign trade especially in manufacturing jobs as it is. ( which is what is killing the middle class ) We as a people need to step up and pay in a TAX whatever it cost to insure all citizens.
If nothing else today the court said you can not call a pig a cow as call what you like it is a pig ( tax ). Now prepare BO fans as you watch one sound bite add after another as he said time and time again it was not a tax on camera. Going to cost the D's the senate as it was breaking 50R to 48D with two independents before and this is going to light things up. The prez has bumping up and down but will take the electoral vote and has a strong possibility of losing the popular vote. He is around .01% a head this week but trailed .01% last this one should be a real interesting thing to watch track out.
Today's decision was not the end of the discussion but the beginning of all citizens being forced to come to grips with the cost of modern health care and it is going to be interesting to see what happens when the true cost of health care is seen and felt by all. It will not be a spectator sport.
