Healthcare update

Republicans embrace ObamaCare, call it Ryan-Rivlin

If The Government Can Force You To Buy Healthcare ...

What do conservatives think will happen if the individual mandate gets struck down?

On the Constitutionality of ObamaCare
The test case for conservative seriousness about federalism was Raich v. Gonzales, the medical marijuana case. Justices Scalia and Kennedy flubbed that opportunity, ruling that a woman growing a plant in her backyard was engaging in interstate commerce and that this activity could therefore be regulated by the federal government. If Scalia and Kennedy now vote with the majority to strike down portions of ObamaCare, it will be pretty obvious that they regard federalism as little more than a flimsy pretext for invalidating statutes they don’t like. Or, worse, for giving a president they don’t like a black eye.
