Healthcare ruling: 6% new tax on American who only earns $36,000, while $3 trillion corporations go untaxed in overseas

…What is most scary about the court ruling on the mandate is that it opens the way for the government to do whatever it wants as long as it calls it a tax. Tossing out the Obama commerce clause argument, Roberts rightly said, “The individual mandate cannot be upheld as an exercise of Congress’s power under the Commerce Clause. That clause authorizes Congress to regulate interstate commerce, not to order individuals to engage in it.”

But then he proceeded to justify the tax approach, saying that Congress’ ability to tax and spend is unlimited.

So presumably the government could order you to buy a new car every three years or face a penalty, aka tax.

Or be forced to put solar panels on your roof under the same terms.

When you combine this with the recent corporate campaign fund rulings of the court, you can pretty well kiss democracy good bye, if you haven’t some time ago.

And if you think this is an exaggeration, consider that the court, with liberals cheering, just upheld a 6% new tax on some American who only earns $36,000, while $3 trillion in corporate investments go untaxed in overseas hiding places and hardly anyone says a mumblin’ word.
