So he lied the his party and taxpayers, then double talked the Supreme Court to get them to uphold his lies.
if looks like a duck,
it walks like a duck,
and quacks like duck,
calling it Oscar doesn't mean it isn't a duck.

Stephanopoulos states that Websters calls any raising of money to be a tax.
In my opinion and it seems that of the President, that comparing Webster's definition of a tax that gives someone no direct benefit, to payment for services that does give direct benefit is disingenuous. Because stating that broad of a definition also could be applied to garbage collection, water utilities, toll fees, traffic fines, (if time is considered money) mandatory grass cutting, civic duties, et al.
Thanks for the linking btw
