Most recently and grievously, in the Supreme Court’s 5 to 4 decision on June 28, 2012, in National Federation of Independent Business et al. v. Sebelius, Secretary of Health and Human Services, et al. (aka the Affordable Care Act or Obamacare case), the Court issued the most unscrupulous of modern judicial rulings, in which it not only distorted the federal government’s taxing power beyond all recognition, but also used that power to alter fundamentally the relationship between the individual and the federal government.
