So, Obamacare goes to the Supreme Court this week, starting today, when I believe they’ll take up the issue of whether or not the “fee” for not having insurance is actually a tax. If it’s a tax, they effectively punt the ball until 2015 or something, because you can’t question the constitutionality of a tax until it’s actually been levied. Or so the pinkos at NPR tell me, anyway. They make a big deal out of the dog and pony oral arguments show, but I find it hard to believe any of it actually matters, and that they don’t already have their minds made up. But maybe I’m wrong.
Otherwise, it’s just your basic Monday. Winter is back, and it’s not supposed to get out of the 30s today, with a hard freeze tonight. Hopefully that’ll kill some of the bugs.
I’ve basically been in a self-imposed news blackout since Saturday night, so I don’t know what else is going on out there in the world. Not that I need to know.
Oh well, time to prepare for a week in the airless coffin in which I work. It’s kind of like being buried alive.
