The Christian Court made sure to state that getting out of paying taxes (well anymore than they already do) was something they weren't about to allow in regards to religious corporations.

Gotta keep the pieces of silver coming in you know.

Well, of course they did - my post was a bit of hyperbole.

We all have to pay for things we find objectionable. Giving a special pass for religious reasons is ludicrous.

In this case, Hobby Lobby chose to self-insure their employees. They certainly had a choice - they could have chosen to not self-insure, in which case they would be paying only for the employer share of premiums rather than directly for things they find objectionable.

P.S. Working for companies that self-insure can suck. My employer is partially self-insured. They've announced that they intend on hitting employees who do not participate in our wellness program with huge premium surcharges - and that wellness program includes company-sponsored exams and such, in the office. Medical privacy rights? What medical privacy rights?
