I concur!
If money from corporations for political campaigns can be considered “speech”, then what’s wrong with money charged one by the government being called a “tax”. I get tax deductions for my action (buying a house, having kids) why not call a fee paid for my lack of action a tax. We are worse off for the former decision, better off for the latter. Win some, lose some. Unless you are the idiot Trump nominated AG, Marburg v Madison applies, the Supremes decide.
This is faux outrage is by people who don’t like the idea of government insurance, or rather the first three syllables of Obamacare.
