Supreme Court backs Hobby Lobby

[n2sooners]

You guys are missing the point of this SCOTUS case.

It sounds like you are against the ACA. Fine and dandy. Speak out against it. Fight against it.

The ACA exists. That's fact. The scary thing is that Hobby Lobby is using constitutional protections meant to apply to individuals to skirt corporate regulation. That's bull honky.

Fight to get rid of the mandates/regulations you don't like. But don't try to skirt them by applying constitutional protections meant to protect an individuals religious freedom to your "closely held company". The owners of Hobby Lobby don't have to provide anyone with Jack ****. Their company does.

Corporate tax rate too high? Fight to lower it. Don't send half and say Jesus told you it's OK and the constitution is on your side.

Also, this "belief" that the contraception provided aborts pregnancies is false. This whole case is built on ********. To hear a supreme court justice of the United States stumbling over psuedoscience is pathetic. Obamacare got everyone's panties in such a twist they'll scream and cry and swing until they get a solid blow in. Whiny post-Reagan right doing what they do best. Playing the persecuted victim. Party of pusssies.

2016 presedential is sealed now, by the way, assuming the democrats get ANYONE but Hill Dog to the front.

So what you are saying is, you have freedom of religion up until you decide you need to make a living. Then your only option if you want to keep your religious freedoms is priest (pastor, reverend, nun... ).

And if your argument is that she can buy them without insurance, supporters are delusional & misinformed. An average woman working to support herself can't afford birth control pills without insurance's aide

Care to back this statement up with facts? or is this just more ******** being piled on this thread with the rest of what ridgehunter is spewing?

Where is the Civil Rights Act of '64, the FDA, the USDA, the FDIC, the ARC, EOEC, HUD, FHA, EPA, DEQ, minimum wage, unemployment insurance, etc in the BOR? Corporate regulation has existed for years and it was common knowledge that individual constituional protections do no protect a company you have a hand in do not allow your company to avoid regulation.

Regulating safety isn't anywhere close to forcing companies to give you free crap. What's next? All employers must provide their employees with electric cars? Housing? Clothes? Food?

pills are $78 per month without insurance...that's about $1,000 per year. IUD is about $1400, good for 5 years.

I guess I won't be working for your company then. See how easy that was?

Depends on what they pay, could always buy your own insurance just like all those workers around the nation promoted to part time employee status.

$9/month at WalMart for one of nine different oral contraceptive pills.

I think IUDs can be put in at the health department in Oklahoma based on a sliding scale. I don't recall, as I haven't placed an IUD in a couple of years, but they were less than half that cost not too long ago.

Or just let the ones with insurance soak up the cost of my ER visits, like millions have been doing for years.
