The Supreme Court has upheld the constitutionality of Obamacare in a 7-2 vote

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Wednesday to confirm the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act by a 7-2 margin, with 4 conservatives justices joining the court’s three liberals to protect the landmark achievement of former President Barack Obama’s two terms.

The argument follows from a 2012 case against the ACA mandate that all Americans get insured, or else face a monetary penalty. In a 5-4 decision, conservative Chief Justice John Roberts, joined by the court’s four liberals, then wrote an opinion ruling the law was constitutional because the mandate was actually a constitutional exercise of the government’s right to tax, not an unconstitutional requirement that all Americans must purchase a product on the marketplace.

True Justice .Amen health care for all.. not lies, greed , and selfishness, from special interests and corporate powers…

Remember Obamacare is actually Romneycare. The GOP doesn't want to give credit to a Democrat especially a Black Democrat...

Cool. Now, open it up to everyone. Let people below the income threshold opt out of Medicaid and into the ACA, including married people who file separately.
