I am not at all confident that Romney would do a damn thing about this.

Although this ruling brings some thoroughly fucked things I think the SCOTUS is sending a pretty clear message to the citizens of the country:
It is the RESPONSIBILITY of the voters, if we don't like things we have the ability to change it. "It's not our job to protect the people from the consiquences of their political choices" Chief Justice John Roberts. Like it or not he is correct.
I see this ruling as a gelling factor to anybody who opposes Obamacare. We now have a clear, defined goal.
Last I recall close to 70% of the general public opposed Obamacare.
70%-thats a HUGE number
Bingo. The SC just ruled the government can make you purchase anything they want. You now can develope a crummy product, fail miserably, and then convince a congressman or senator that "the people" must have your product and poof, you've got a successful business.
The greatest civilizations in history always crumble around the 200 year mark. Welcome to the end people.
Prepare your anus.
Our best bet is to vote for Obama so we can begin reconstruction within our lifetimes.
Man, what just happened? In my gaming out what would happen, I never considered that John Roberts would join the libs to uphold the whole thing. Well, Mittens is the last bullet in the legislative pistol, and if he is a FTL/FTF/FTE then truly we are done. Of course, if Beeho wins its over completely, as we will have a police state within the next 4 years. Expect very difficult times, loss of freedoms if you oppose him in any way, and frequent civil unrest.
Even if Mittens does what he says he is going to do, it is now clear that the current SCOTUS will NOT be reining in the power of the fed gov.
A very sad and disturbing day.

I will bet you $250 that if he gets re-elected, this will not happen.
And I mean actual police state, not the sort of bullshit people call a police state like smacking down violent protests and arresting people.
I'm talking people disappear for talking bad about the government, and surrender of civil rights.
