Bullshit. The other 2500 pages were not relevant to the matter in front of the court. The reason the court even heard this case was because the law was so specific in the relevant section. If the other 2500 said the exact opposite, it would have obviously been seen as a typo, and it never would have made it to the court.

Chief Justice Roberts is correct. The intent was to improve health insurance markets. That being said, the law is an abysmal failure. The purpose of the Supreme Court is not to fix laws. It is not to bail out the President or Congress. What the court did was uphold the idea of a law, and it's effect is to uphold a shitty law, that never should have been passed in the first place. Much better would have been to uphold the law as written and forced Congress to have another go.
