I think that what o'bummer has done (regardless of the Supreme Court Decision) sets a very dangerous precedent. Now that he's decided not to enforce a segment of the immigration law, what is to stop him from deciding not to enforce a portion of the tax code? He can just as arbitrarily say that effective immediately, people of a given group will hence be exempt from paying income tax. In my opinion, he has set fire to the separation of powers principle that our notion was built on. |
