Supreme Court Begins Hearing Health Care Reform Arguments

Yesterday the legal boxing began with the first round being about the Anti-Injunction Act (AIA) of 1867 and whether or not the court could actually hear arguments about health care reform mandate if no penalties had been paid yet. The AIA is the basis of all tax collections which says that you have to pay the tax before you can challenge the tax in court. From the sounds of the arguments in hearing yesterday, it appears the AIA is a none issue for the rest of the week's health care reform arguments.

Today the Supreme Court will be hearing the first arguments about the ability of the federal government to impose a mandate to buy health insurance on all citizens.

Stay tuned for more.
