I also read that the government is working out a plan to subsidize the employees who would be denied this. So bottom line is that if Hobby Lobby does not provide the coverage for those 4 types of treatments, then tax payers will be. So one way or the other, no matter what you believe, you will be paying for it instead of Hobby Lobby.

Someone else paying for it. That should make the entitlebots happy.

Liberals are still tripping, killed off too many brain cells.

What I find interesting in her dissent is that Ginsburg makes frequent use of the word "insurance" when in fact the court ruled, along with her, that the ACA wasn't insurance...

I'll add to it.

And if you can't make someone else pay for it they'll declare it's a war on woman, blacks, who ever.

I find it very strange. What did they think the affordable care act was in reference to then?

More like,
"government can do whatever they want, but they can't always make somebody else pay for it."
Wish that would apply to our taxes

It isn't insurance. At least not legally.

That's right. The drugs they (HL) objected to were those that caused abortion, much like the morning after pill. They are still covering contraceptives so I find it puzzling why everyone is getting their panties in a bunch, claiming it's a war on women.

I think it's very fair that someone not be forced to provide coverage for something that could cause the end of life. If a woman wants to end her pregnancy, she should pay for it herself or seek out an insurance company (outside HL) that will pay for it.

HL was considering giving their employees a certain dollar amount if they wanted to buy coverage elsewhere and drop them from the HL plans. I think that's moot now but it did show that HL wasn't completely unsympathetic to its female employees.
