"[Ilt is reasonable to construe what Congress has done as increasing taxes on those who have a certain amount of income, but choose to go without health insurance. Such legislation is within Congress's power to tax... . The Framers created a Federal Government of limited powers, and
assigned to this Court the duty of enforcing those limits. The Court does so today. But the Court does not express any opinion on the wisdom of the Affordable Care Act. Under the Constitution, that judgment is reserved to the people."
---Chief Justice John Roberts, opinion of the court, National Federation of Independent Businesses et al. v. Sebelius et al. (2012)
