The Supreme Court upholds Obamacare Subsidies

#11

Quote:Since when did the consequences of a decision become the deciding factor of interpreting a law? Regardless good or bad their job is to interpret the law, they openly said the literal interpretation would've lead to an unsatisfactory decision so they just looked at the intent. That is such a garbage and dangerous precedent to set liberals should be furious.


We now have a situation where the court can simply say regardless of what the law says we believe the intent is _____ so that's the law.
 

Legislative intent is considered when legislation is not clear or doesn't address a particular issue.  It's been that way for a long time.

I was wrong about Trent Baalke.
