The Supreme Court kicks off the first of three days of hearings on
President Barack Obama's health care law. The two-year-old Affordable Care Act has been surrounded by controversy, mainly over whether the federal government can require people to get health insurance. But today's argument focuses on a more technical aspect of the law: Key provisions don't kick in until 2014. A 19-th century law would prohibit the court from ruling until that time. But both the plaintiffs and the federal government agree the Supreme Court shouldn't wait to act.
