The damn thing has failed to give people their health insurance. It has done the opposite as it has raisin the price of insurance and dropped more people.
I mean wtf?
It has done none of the above. It hasn't failed to do anything yet. Once in place, we will see weather or not it is workable and what effects it will have. As of now, everyone is just speculating. Remember this simple fact; before the ACA was passed, insurance premiums were increasing by 10 to 15% every single year. It was becoming a nightmare. So many of you seem to forget this fact or are unaware of it because you only pay a portion of your health insurance premiums as the majority is covered by your employer. I pay my own, and I've seen how the cost has increased over the years.
Because of ACA I will lose my health care plan at the end of this year and so will a lot of others I know who are not 65 yet. On the other hand those who work part time, 30 hours or more can now purchase health care through their employer. Expensive but available. I have been looking at alternatives and they are all expensive, relative to what I have been paying. Keep the payment lower and the deductible sky rockets. I talked to HR and they told me to go to the Obamacare site because that is making health care affordable. The did seem genuinely surprised when I told them how un-affordable the rates really were.
they're always cherry picking .... its was in the house firstWrong again. Roberts didn't have the authority to rule on Article 1 Section 7 grounds because those were not the grounds the individual mandate was challenged or defended on. Furthermore, when it is the plain language of the Constitution, though procedural in nature, it is still more than substantive. If it were House and Senate procedural rules in question the SCOTUS would refuse to accept the case. Seeing as it is a violation of the plain and very clear language of the Constitution, or rules of which cannot be changed by the House and Senate, the complaint holds both substance and merit.
What?
Then that would mean Citizen's United and many other decisions would be bounced.
Of course..that's not the case even with your parameters. Because you are cherry picking.

I thought a strong case against it was argued the first time and we all saw what happened.
I don't think a procedural act is capable of overturning Obamacare. The court may decide however that they have made a huge mistake by calling it a tax, and not what it actually is a mandate.

You pay a tax penalty for not buying a house. In fact, the bigger the house you don't buy, the bigger the penalty you are paying.
You pay a tax penalty for not having children. In fact, the more kids you choose not to have, the bigger the penalty you are paying.
There are thousands of tax penalties for not going along with the government's behavioral modification and social experimentation programs. We actually vote for our politicians based on their promises to put more tax penalties in the tax code! The more tax penalities they put in, the more we like them!
Don't believe me? Just try to get even a dyed-in-the-wool post modern conservative to go along with eliminating the tax penalty for not buying a house. They won't do it. They will, in fact, come after you with fangs and claws if you even try.
So it is way, way, WAY too late for anyone to be complaining about a new tax penalty for not buying health insurance. You blew it.

It's no more, or less, of a "mandate" than the home mortgage tax credit.

The Supreme Court has already struck this idea down. There is no power for the individual mandate in the commerce clause.
Republicans are ghouls. Not only do they believe in "let him die", but they want people to really suffer first. The reason they don't have a health care plan is because this was it.
Get over it. How many times does this thing need to ho to court? Damn obstructionists.
