The fact that the business was structured as a corporation has nothing to do with whether or not Obamacare as implemented violates peoples free excercise of religion.
Hypocrisy #1. Hobby Lobby had no issues with these *exact same* birth control medications before the ACA went live.
Hypocrisy #2. Hobby Lobby's retirement plan invests in the very companies that make the birth control medications that they now don't want to cover.
Hypocrisy #3. Hobby Lobby's main supplier is China, the abortion capital of the planet, as well as one of the 20 worst when it comes to child labor abuses. Oh yeah, they also don't allow religious worship.
So how come Hobby Lobby is ok with these costs of doing business? They could easily change mutual funds or get the garbage they sell from India, Pakistan or Indonesia instead of China. Why are you so blind to their hypocrisy & political grandstanding?
