[QUOTE="newfie, post: 4431076, member: 58700"] there are various opinions on the current case available to google basically many constitutionalist argue that you can not force someone to buy something in this case an insurance policy the Obama presidency denied obamacare was a tax which it is and then when defending ACA in supreme court won the case by arguing that it was a tax and they had a right to levy taxes. the supreme court agreed. in 2017 the republicans removed the tax therefore removing the reason the supreme court upheld ACA . 18 red states then sued to have Obamacare overturned. At some point the trump administration decided to join the lawsuit rather then have to defend it. other democratic states then decided to defend it. personally I'll be surprised if it gets overturned completely by the supreme court. Obama knew once he enacted this legislation it would be almost impossible to overturn it. The harm of completely overturning it is too great. Trump is hoping it does get overturned so he can build his own plan. if obamacare was overturned the dem would have to work with trump to get something in place to fix all the gaps that would exist. Its kind of like ripping a tumor out of the body and then trying to fix all the damage . [/QUOTE]
