Check out this quote in the dissent in the Supreme Court decision on health care

“….to say the Individual Mandate merely imposes a tax is not to interpret the statute but to rewrite it.  Judicial tax-writing is particularly troubling….[we] have no doubt that Congress knew precisely what it was doing when it rejected an earlier version of this legislation that imposed a tax instead of a requirement-with-penalty…Imposing a tax through judicial legislation inverts the constitutional scheme, and places the power to tax in the branch [Judicial/Supreme Court] least accountable to the citizenry…”

– above quote lifted from the dissent of Justice Scalia, Kennedy, Thomas and Alito
