That the judges are asking very tough questions can mean they are clearing all doubt from their minds, or doubling down on what they are concerned about.
We won't know until June.
I'm more optimistic, after reading stuff about today, that it will be 5-4 or 6-3 in favor. If it is overturned, we must go to national single payer to control our skyrocking healthcare costs, so some on the far left are hoping for a defeat. The judges did acknowledge that in the discussion today, which points in favor of upholding the mandate.
