Congress has always had the power to tax us. Roberts did not suddenly give them more power. The power of Congress to tax is balanced by our power to vote them in or out of office every two years. Roberts has given every American citizen a wake-up call to take responsibility for our voting choices (or our lack of voting, i.e., our apathy). Roberts has essentially said it's not his, as one man, to fix what we 300 million citizens have allowed the 535 representatives we've elected to do to us. Caveat emptor!!
