When the court rules in King v. Burwell, we anticipate that it will hold the administration to the laws Congress passed, rather than the laws the administration wishes Congress had passed, and prohibit subsidies in states that opted not to set up their own exchanges, as the language in the law clearly states. Such a ruling could cause 6 million Americans to lose a subsidy they counted on, and for many the resulting insurance premiums would be unaffordable.

Live It

Had a great time last night.

Good Afternoon & many blessings.

Paul,  Josh, Jim, & many others contributed to the funness.

Today is the 1st day of March in my 36th year. 

For the next 30 days it’s Anything Can Happen March. I’m not sure what that entails,  but let’s remove that governor off our engines.

Are you ready to live with it?
