Supreme Court upholds Obamacare subsidies

The Supreme Court spared a key part of President Barack Obama’s signature law in a 6-3 decision Thursday, ruling that the federal government may continue to subsidize health insurance in the dozens of states that did not set up their own exchanges.
Justice Anthony Kennedy, who expressed deep reservations when the case was argued about whether striking down the subsidies would coerce states into establishing their own exchanges, joined the court’s four liberals and Chief Justice John Roberts to uphold the subsidies. Roberts, who was the object of immense conservative blowback after he joined the court’s liberals three years ago to uphold the law’s individual mandate, again wrote the majority opinion in support of the Obama administration position.
they did the right thing so no hoopla for the scotus.  republicans tried to brand Pres. as lawless ye5t Cruz and others are still talking about trying to repeal and replace ObamCares.  they just took another vote to repeal believe it or not their myth of death panels do you really want these guys running your lives?????  would there have been a nat'l riot of sorts against a negative decision, and was this more of a saving face then appeasing the right wing for the right wing side of the court then there's the history book do you think they want the stink of snatching ACA which they allowed back???
