(1) First and foremost the ACA/ObamaCare is still the law. If you need insurance please sign up now healthcare.gov (2) This ruling redefines how far conservative activist judges will go in shooting down laws they do not like. The ruling is absurd without any legal merit.
(3) This ruling will likely be overturned because it is laughable on its face from a legal perspective and would literally kill 10,000's of Americans per year so Republicans will not actually want it to happen from a political perspective.
(4) In a country where judicial branch's legitimacy is hanging by a thread, this further undermines rule of law. Republican activist judges know no bounds in their pursuit of undermining voting rights, healthcare, etc. and future legislation must be written w/ that understanding.
Any Republican who thinks that using the judicial branch to threaten the healthcare of 20 million+ Americans is going to get the Democrats to moderate their concern for the life, health, and productivity of working Americans will be disappointed.
Democrats now know that half measures and complex schemes are no substitute for stronger and simpler solutions like full access to Medicare, which will be politically more complicated for the Republican judicial branch for undermine in purely political rulings.
