Paul, the answer to that question depends on whether you are discussing the validity of the entire health care or just the validity of the individual mandate. If only the individual mandate is held invalid as being beyond the commerce power, the precedent will not have much significance. If the entire act falls, that would be a severe blow to any attempt on Congress part to legislate on health care. I do not think that any part of the act or the entire act will fall. However, if only the mandate is held invalid, Congress can do what they have done with Medicare Part B. Make it optional but have a penalty for a late signup.
