HOBBY LOBBY WON!

Posted: Jun 30, 2014

Supreme Court states corporations cannot be required to provide contraception coverage. YES!!!!

The protests outside are all young people and they act like the ruling would deny birth control for everyone. When are these kids going to get an education? They want it, they can pay for it just like we used to have to pay for it.

I'm so glad. The government does not have the right to force us to pay for contraceptives, especially those that are no longer able to have kids or even men past their prime.

The Whiner-In-Chief will probably blame this on Bush, too! LOL

Boo! Will never shop at a Hobby Lobby. - Big Biz has too much control in this country.

Everyone pays for - Their own meds?

I don't know about the rest of you but the reason I have insurance is so that I DON'T end up paying the full cost for all my meds. Yes, I expect to pay a copay and I expect the same for BC. I also pay premiums every month.

Do you realize how much some meds are if you don't have insurance? Yet, this is apparently what I'm reading is that some of you go out and pay for your own meds....blood pressure, depression, cancer drugs whatever just directly?

We are not asking for free medications....this is about the slippery slope of a corporation being able to say what specific parts insurance will no longer negotiate a price for you for health-related things (when you are paying at least part of a monthly premium yourself).

It's already been said but I'll say it again, the reasoning presented behind this verdict would be the same used to justify a Jehovah's Witness from denying blood transfusions be covered under employee's insurance....could someone still get one if needed at the hospital? Of course. But not having your insurance able to negotiate the price of that transfusion with the hospital all because of the religious beliefs of your employer? Watch your hospital bill start to skyrocket.

What is it exactly that HL wants? Claim they cannot cover certain BC because they cause abortions, now they fire a lady because she is pregnant. HL is religiousing itself into a corner from which they will never be able to get out. If real people were not affected by their absurdity, it would be downright funny, but sadly real people are affected. For the sake of the employee I do hope this is an allegation and that she has not been fired for being pregnant, but if ...

So, this company is owned and operated by people who have certain beliefs regarding the Obamacare mandate regarding abortion - and filed suit to be granted the same exemption that has already been granted to a Catholic organization. Howls of protest. Calls for boycott. Not me! First, I'm not stupid enough to step on my own face if I can help it. HL has some great stuff that I can't find elsewhere, or for the price. Second, I'm not stupid enough to ...

The Company's Retirement Plan Invests in Contraception Manufacturers When Hobby Lobby filed its case against Obamacare's contraception mandate, its retirement plan had more than $73 million invested in funds with stakes in contraception makers.

Have you noticed when you are in a Hobby Lobby store (for those who have actually spent time in one), they play Christian music over their music system? I find it very soothing and often enjoy it so much that I have bought several of the CDs they are playing. This is still a free country - just as we are free to get out of transcription and find another line of work, so the employee of Hobby Lobby is free to find another craft store or another line of work. This is a free count ...

I think to a lot of people, the Supreme Court's decision in the Hobby Lobby case is largely about an overhaul of corporations' rights to control employees, basically a first step to more control over their lives. Sure, it's about the birth control issue, but the "big picture" about the decision is this opening of the door to who knows what is next from big business? The same people who are saying they don't want government to come between people and their doctor s ...

I read the post below about the lady whose family cook book is getting published, and also once in a while see someone posting their stuff on Esty. That's amazing. I was wondering if anyone has taken a hobby and turned it into a lucrative side job? I am barely making ends meet! As soon as I get my check it's gone. Thank goodness for Angelfood ministries! I can do bead work, crochet, knit and sew. I can draw and know how to can fruits, but there just isn& ...

Some time ago I asked about making jewelry and am going to try to do learn to do that when our community ed classes start up again in the fall. In the meantime, I have a funny question. (Maybe I am going into second childhood.) Do any of you draw or paint? I love to sketch and I also like the Dover coloring books, which are quite detailed and good for adults. Does anyone else on here like to draw/color? ...

Every senator who accepted money from the Iranian American Political Action Committee (IPAC) should be impeached and removed from office — or at very least, soundly defeated the next time he or she comes up for reelection. But the Enemedia, true to form, will cover for them and do everything it can to keep them on the government payroll. One of the many unanswered questions about P5+1 agreement with Iran is why so many Congressional Democrats are rallying behind the President on this issue ...
