Supreme Court Upholds Tax Subsidies Under Obamacare
Justice Antonin Scalia wrote the dissent.“The Court holds that when the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act says ‘Exchange established by the State’ it means ‘Exchange established by the State or the Federal Government.’ That is of course quite absurd, and the Court’s 21 pages of explanation make it no less so,” Scalia wrote, who was also joined by Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito in the dissent.Scalia added, “Words no longer have meaning if an Exchange that is not established by a State is ‘established by the State.’ It is hard to come up with a clearer way to limit tax credits to state Exchanges than to use the words ‘established by the State.’ And it is hard to come up with a reason to include the words ‘by the State’ other than the purpose of limiting credits to state Exchanges.”

p.s. the big problem arises when the actual flag out there,
the u.s.a. flag, is considered offensive.

It's an equation balanced against the power of the protective echelon to protect the revolutionaries against the counter-revolutionaries factoring the time for the teeter to totter.

*sarcasm* Isn't it exciting that we can have a new Constitution every day without changing a single word of it? *end sarcasm*
An emperor knows how to govern when poets are free to make verses, people to act plays, historians to tell the truth, ministers to give advice, the poor to grumble at taxes, students to learn lessons aloud, workmen to praise their skill and seek work, people to speak of anything, and old men to find fault with everything. (Address of the Duke of Shao to King Li-Wang, ca 845 B.C.) Will Durant (1885–1981)
If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter. George Washington (1732–1799)
When the government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
And the biggest ironies is in a speech given by the Socialist Woodrow Wilson which proves that even back a hundred years ago a person will LIE and say anything to gain power, so they can abuse it to do THEIR will.
Liberty never came from government. The history of liberty is a history of resistance. The history of liberty is a history of limitations of governmental power, not the increase of it. Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
Which leads me to a truly GREAT Quote by a Republican President.
"We all declare for liberty; but in using the same word we do not all mean the same thing. With some the word liberty may mean for each man to do as he pleases with himself, and the product of his labor; while with others, the same word may mean for some men to do as they please with other men, and the product of other men's labor. Here are two, not only different, but incompatible things, called by the same name - liberty. And it follows that each of the things is, by the respective parties, called by two different and incompatible names - liberty and tyranny."
Abraham Lincoln
