The Supreme Court just announced last week it would hear this very specific item, the legality of subsidized healthcare payments on the federal exchanges. Re-enter Gruber. On a separate video in a different speech, he explains what Obamacare intended: “If youre a state and you dont set up an exchange, that means your citizens dont get their tax credits.” The legislative idea was to coerce states into setting up their own exchanges by otherwise denying their citizens subsidies. This may have been a stupid idea, but it was no slip. And its the law, as written, as enacted and as intended. It can be changed by Congress only, not by the Executive. Which is precisely what the plaintiffs are saying. Q.E.D.
