The Obamacare Act

I'd heard that Congress had passed this act without having read it.  I thought I might read it so I found it online.

It is 2,454 pdf pages long!  I'm not about to print it on my printer.  I'm not sure what size the file would be to download it.  I suppose a printed copy could be obtained from the GPO.  A digital copy would be better for the cross-linking and indexing necessary for a truly useful reference.  I believe parts of it are redundant as already covered by other laws.  A complete law course could be devoted to it.  One could make a career out of interpreting it.  Who will prepare the case challenging the constitutionality?  [at least some parts]  Will the judges understand it better than those who passed it?  Think of the expense of complying with it.
