"Today's Supreme Court opinion finding ObamaCare to be constitutional may just be the final nail in the coffin of limited government; especially troubling because authored by a supposedly "conservative" and "non-activist" Chief Justice, John Roberts. The decision in fact justifies an extremely liberal and activist expansion of federal government power to force individuals to do its bidding -- in this case, forcing people to purchase a one-size-fits-all, government-defined health care policy. It is an opinion utterly devastating to the principle of limited and defined government power. James Madison and his Founding Brothers are turning in their graves."
