Hobby Lobby - 1.3 Mill/day fine Starts 1/1/13

They're forcing their religious beliefs upon their employees at a time when their employees have no choice in who they work for, and little to no opportunity to change it.

they are NOT forcing any religious beliefs on anyone.......

The damn thing about this in my opinion, why should ANYONE have to pay to OTHERS to screw safely?  why can't people TRY to be an ounce accountable for their OWN actions?  Why?  that just blows me away!  NO, lets have our government FORCE  business' to pay for it............it is mind boggling to think our goverment is THIS powerful and so many people are okay with it.

69,000,000 + in premiums less 18,000 to pay for 360 morning after pills. . . Yeah, who is paying for it again?

  What gets me is some dumbass who has screwed himself poor with 5 kids don't want anyone to get some from of birth control.  To hell with the children born out of these conditions.  And why is he against it, HE DOESN'T WANT SOME BIG RICH COMPANY TO PAY TO HAVE IT IN THEIR HEALTH INSURANCE. 

   Some people just make me sick.

. . .

No?

Then explain just why it is that they do not want to pay for it then. . . (This should be good)

The story clearly states, (and within the portion of the story I quoted), that they do not want to pay for this because it is against the owners religious beliefs.

The company opposes providing some contraceptives to employees through its company health care plan on religious grounds, saying some contraceptive products, like the morning after pill, equate to abortion. . .

So that is his/her religious belief, and more power to him. S/he can hold that belief all they want, but NO ONE else has to unless they make the personal decision to do so. Taking away that decision is imposing one's belief upon another, and constitutionally a violation as well as a violation of the HCRA; the law of the land.

Lets get to the blunt of this issue...........and this says it all for me.

For the same reasons you have to pay taxes.  It's the law. 

None of us enjoys paying taxes, but we have no choice in the matter.

"blunt"?

Are you referring to a marijuana cigarette, or did you mean to say "brunt," meaning the main thrust of the argument?

Given the sentence structure of the post you replied to I'd say that was, again, a Freudian slip!

Sentence structure and spelling / vocabulary notwithstanding. . . I already answered that one myself.
