A law fining Americans for not buying health insurance is not a "tax", it's a fine. It's a civil punishment. Double-speak. The sky is still blue even if the Supreme Court rules its green. The individual mandate is a civil penalty just like a parking ticket. The supreme court is a joke and the commerce clause crap has gone beyond the absurd.
