Regarding your number 2 that is absolutely false. The Supreme Court DID NOT STRIKE DOWN that provision, what they did was say the states had flexiblity not to expand Medicaid if they chose to do so, and if they did they wouldn't have to PAY THE SAME PENALTY that the law called for. That is very different than it being struck down. Your last sentence contradicts your first.

It's interesting that you call that a marketing brochure.
