Roberts makes it very clear in his decision this is not retroactive.

They sure can do their jobs properly...they just have to do it constitutionally now and don't get to create laws based on their rules. Now they must go to congress so there are checks and balances.

Depends if one or more of the manufacturers takes it to court to challenge those mandates. SCOTUS just opened the door but since its not retroactive each regulation/mandate already on the books must be challenged individually. Last I heard the auto industry in the US is very in the pocket of the government...I mean they did get bailed out a while back.

Generally, these departments and agencies are bloated with uneeded redundancy, inefficiency, and financial mismanagement to put it mildly.
in these contentious times where one party or another grabs power and tries to intact laws and regulations for its political positives as much as any other reason, without understanding all of its intricacies. Intricacies that will have to be dealt with down the road, which is a common political move, cave to PAC and worry about all the consequences later.
Not suggesting states can handle it better, but let's not pretend these agencies are shining examples they have so much power and influence that they become little fiefdoms

Well said.
That’s why this decision is so overdue.
At the time it was a political cudgel for the folks who insist that big government knows best.
The more power the states wield the better the union is.
Big government is screwed up.
Always has been, always will be.
That’s the democrats demise.
They want big government and they think it knows better.
Never.

well you won't be saying that for long, when the consequences hit and you lose everything you'll learn the true cost of this ruling, this won't benefit you all like you think it will.

Perhaps good in some ways, to reduce agency overreach.
However, leaving this with the courts, e.g. unelected, unnacountable judges....not sure this will be better in the long run...

Congress must stand up and do their jobs. Incomprehensible bills have been passed the past few decades to allow the ABC departments the leeway to create their own laws without any oversight. It is all by design. Well it was.
