By the way, does this decision mean that performing an abortion may be subjected to a tax?
Total non sequitur.

Not at all.  Doesn't the Court's rationale for upholding the individual mandate -- that Congress may tax failure to purchase health insurance -- mean that Congress could likewise tax abortion procedures?  I'm not advocating it, I'm just suggesting that if the taxing power is this broad, what would prevent its being applied to abortions?
