The first word of this headline should be Liberal

Washington Post:

Legal experts rip judge’s rationale for declaring Affordable Care Act invalid

They predicted that higher courts wil reject the Texas judge’s reasoning as a tortured effort to rewrite not just the health care law but congressional history. The decision sparked criticism but will not immediately change anything.

Liberals like this law which was sold on the basis of what fact checkers called the "lie of the year" by Obama.  For a paper that obsesses over Trump's misstatements of fact, the Post is pretty forgiving when the result of the lie is something they like which advances control freak healthcare.  The law as written was unconstitutional, yet Cheif Justice Roberts in effect rewrote it to make it constitutional by calling the mandate a tax, despite Democrats swearing that it was not one.  When the mandate was effectively removed the veil of constitutionality Roberts had constructed out of whole cloth was ripped away.

While the law may have had a few beneficiaries it created more victims which liberals do not care about because most of them are people who were self-employed and were in the individual market.  Their cost of healthcare skyrocketed to unaffordable levels making the Democrat name for the law a lie.  With divided government, the Democrats should be more willing to work with Republicans to craft a better law.  If they do not, the results are all on them.
