Supreme Court Decision on Health Care Law

I know people have strong opinions about the health care law, and normally I wouldn't post political stuff here on the family blog, but I thought you might be interested in this. Back when the Supreme Court heard oral arguments on the health care law, it was pretty clear that some of the justices had serious concerns with the government's primary argument that the law was constitutional under the Commerce Clause of the Constitution. I thought it would be interesting to see if a different argument could be made for the constitutionality of the law. I spent some time on it and came up with something. I thought it was good enough to post online, which I did on April 10th. It turns out that Chief Justice Roberts independently arrived at basically the same conclusion I did, that the law is constitutional under the Taxing and Spending Clause. Anyway, it's a bit long, but here is a link to my post:
