Federal Court rules Americans accessing #Obamacare on the federal exchange aren't eligible for subsidies. Huge blow: http://washex.am/1r2lGYa
@bspence5 Law's intent not the issue here. Rather, it's the law as written.

@DavidMDrucker having worked in govt before retiring and being familiar w/SCOTUS other court rulings INTENT HAS BEEN CONSIDERED-Roberts ct?? -
If no one read Bill b4 passing it, how can intent be determined? No discussion, no debate =no identifiable intent..
@bspence5@DavidMDrucker -
@Politics_Matter@DavidMDrucker don't believe all you hear-intent can be determined by logic,in context-this ruling is literalism-at worse -
@bspence5@Politics_Matter The problem w/ this argument is that the issue here is an IRS reg, not indecision over interp of the law. My view -
IRS regulations that go beyond the scope of the law, make the law relevant in determining scope.
@DavidMDrucker@bspence5 -
@Politics_Matter@DavidMDrucker not talking scope which is important,SCOTUS does nothing but rule on intent of LAW constitution-relevant -
@bspence5@Politics_Matter Disagree. SCOTUS sometimes rules on intent, other times on legality & constitutionality. Depends. -
@DavidMDrucker@Politics_Matter Not saying court is not schizoid just mentioning what it is there for to interpret intent constitution/law - 1 more reply
