Extra Credit Written Assignment

The Supreme Court of the United States will hear an unprecedented (in modern times, anyway) 3 days of testimony (6 hours worth) of testimony on the question of the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act (ACA, or "ObamaCare"). You can get up-to-the-minute analysis from one of the brightest writers on legal issues, Dahlia Lithwick (who writes for the online magazine Slate), as well as coverage from NPR. Using these sources, and any others you might consult, answer the following questions: What are the the major questions in dispute? Which side do you think presented the most convincing arguments? Who do you think will prevail? Who do you think should prevail? Why?
