Congressman Gosar on Supreme Court Obamacare Ruling: If it walks like a tax, talks like a tax, and quacks like a tax, the Supreme Court will tell us its a tax
Today, the U.S. Supreme Court announced its decision to uphold President Obama’s nationalization of our country’s private health care system. The constitutionality of the law was challenged on several grounds, including its justification grounded under the Commerce Clause. The Court ruled that the Commerce Clause would not support such a broad federal power grab, but, the Court also ruled that Congress had the power to nationalize healthcare under the taxing powers.
