On Tuesday, a three judge panel from the Washington DC circuit court ruled that - as written - ObamaCare only allows subsidies for insurance policies purchased on state exchanges. The law is perfectly clear about this, so it should be a no brainer. It states that subsidies are only legal to exchanges ""established by a State," and then it goes on to define a state as the 50 states and Washington D.C. This was done - by Democrats - purposefully. The goal was to place pressure on Republican Governors who would be forced to fight for an exchange or watch their state's insurance rates skyrocket.
