Back to the subject of this thread? I would like to ask Spence, Likwid, Paul S, Zimmy, in particular, or anyone else on this forum, in general, the following seven questions:
Were you under the impression that the federal Congress had unlimited or undefined powers of taxation before this decision?
If not, do you believe that it now "constitutionally" has unlimited power of taxation?
Did you believe that the Interstate Commerce Clause gives Congress unlimited power to regulate individual behavior?
If not, would Scotus validation of the HCB under Commerce Clause power to regulate inactivity have given Congress unlimited power to regulate behavior?
Finally, does it matter to you if Congress has constitutional power to regulate all of your behavior?
And, if not, do you believe that it is irrational to worry that it might, so having those powers is no threat since it would never do so?
And, if the decision gives Congress unlimited power to tax you, is it irrational to worry about such power, since it will only use it for the benefit of society?
