Thomas Jefferson on the Judiciary




Something to think about as we try to comprehend the legal logic in US Supreme Court Chief Justice's holdings for the Obamacare cases.

Is there any real limits to the reach of the federal government if a thin veil of a tax can justify it under the taxing and spending authority of Congress? 

Was this ruling more motivated by preserving the power of the court against a progressive tide of criticism as opposed to ruling on its Constitutional merits?
