    The tone of the oral arguments -- particularly, the questions asked by the three-judge panel hearing the case -- suggests a ruling against the subsidies, which are a key factor in the eventual success or failure of Obamacare. If the subsidies are ruled illegal as many expect, premiums will skyrocket and the demographic that the administration expects to make up the financial foundation of the healthcare law -- young, single adults -- will drop out of the program like flies. They will not buy insurance for ailments they will not encounter for forty more years.

    Perhaps they were hoping the illegals living here would be benevolent and pick up the tab.
