Anyhow here is the gist if the ruling.

"Congress passed the Affordable Care Act to improve health insurance markets, not to destroy them," Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for the court's majority. "If at all possible, we must interpret the Act in a way that is consistent with the former, and avoids the latter."
I have no problem with healthcare for everyone but I'm very much opposed to paying for todays healthcare with our grandchildren's future earnings. ACA is the law and we should be paying for 100% of it instead of adding it to our deficit. None of our elected leaders have shown the courage to go after the cost of healthcare which is the real problem, not the ACA. As a society we have gotten much to comfortable with shopping now and paying later.
