6. You talking about the group of state attorneys who sued? Somehow the business people got with them?

I thought the attorney generals based their complaint on a rights argument, or 10th amendment as baggers interpret it. I don't see the attorney generals cases as having anything to do with business.

They're supposed to represent their states and haha, their citizens. But I think they are wrong and were wrong, because there was always an opt-out clause in the ACA, they were just being political.

In all the cases, I am guessing the SCOTUS decision destroyed all of that. Now it's up to the federal folks to strike down all the state lawmakers trying to make political points against the ACA and Obama.

Are you saying you wish these suits were still going to go forward and prevent the ACA in some states? That's been settled already, too, with health exchanges.

Since you're not giving much details, perhaps some of the people who have really been into this will come and answer your question for you.
