The myriad of rulings here on this bill are just so confusing. But the ultimate test and the only opinion that ultimately matters is what the SCOTUS decides, which should be in 6-9 months.

I'm not a liberal and I think it's a healthcare reform law. There some some provisions that include tax increases. You'd be hard pressed to find any bills anywhere that don't include some tax increases. I guess by your definition, we pretty much only have tax bills.

Perhaps if the bill is so bad for you then you can take it up with the Republican politicians who refused to participate in the bill in any way. The same people also claim that they'd be able to pass a different form of healthcare reform when they have no suggestions on anything that could work better and don't have the power and political will to get anything passed.

You could either do that or just keep whining like a 5 year old.

Actually, thats by Obama and the DOJ definition
"no suit for the purpose of restraining the assessment or collection of any tax shall be maintained in any court by any person, whether or not such person is the person against whom such tax was assessed."

And no, we dont only have tax bills coming from Congress

FAIL.. The GOP was not even allowed to participate.

You clearly bought the liberal lie because there indeed was numerous suggestions. The GOP even wrote their own legislation which was totally ignored.

The GOP did participate in the bill. They voted "NO". Why waste valuable time debating an unconstitutional bill?

My recollection is that there was a bipartisan committee in the Senate that came up with a bill that Harry Reid didn't like. So he closeted himself with Rahm Emanuel and came up with a different bill. The Republicans were literally locked out of that process.
