I got a kick outta that one myself.....it reads like "it's not unconstitutional if one clicks the heels of their ruby red slippers together 3 times and deems it so"....what a pants load.

Do you see "Legally Bald" as an animated production? A live actor would probably be killed or maimed trying to get his head in the proper position.....

"as construed and applied" is a legal concept which is beyond your limited understanding of the law.

TG, if you will Google the phrase "as construed and applied", you will see what I am referring to. Statutes are tested for their constitutionality as they are "construed and applied". If an individual state opts out of the individual mandate, the constitutional objection disappears. The statute would then be made constitutional by the way it is "construed and applied".
