BREAKING NEWS - The US Supreme Court says that an employer can choose to pay for birth control for their employees instead of forcing them to do it under the affordable health care act. Companies like Hobby Lobby are relieved as their company is ran by owners with religious beliefs that they feel would be contradicted by being forced to supply it to employees. Now, legally they wont. The internet is on fire now with debate. Side 1 says: Its backwards. Birth Control is an essential life need and should be provided by insurance at all employers. Side 2 says: Good. If someone wants it they will always have the right to purchase it on their own with their own money privately. I guess it comes down to: Should an employer offering insurance have to pay for birth control? Do you feel this is their financial responsibility? Anyone going to boycott Hobby Lobby? Anyone happy with the ruling? Thoughts?
