Letter: What happened to Obama’s sense of fairness?

Editor:

President Obama continually rants about “fairness” - meaning he wants to excessively tax people who have worked hard and/or invested wisely leading to wealth.

Becoming wealthy has always been the goal for most Americans.

Now that the Supreme Court has ruled on “Obamacare,” I’d like to know what happened to his sense of fairness?

Exemptions have been granted to many groups, especially those of the Muslim faith (they don’t believe in insurance), those in our country illegally, and many union members - yet they will all use the medical system while WE pay for it.

Repeat: what happened to his sense of fairness?
