I am sooo PO'd. The supreme court ruled that corporations don't have to cover birth control costs in their health insurance plans for women, if it is against the corps religious beliefs. They say corps are a single entity like women are. Excuse me ???!!! So now we are mixing state rights with religious rights ? This is outrageous. Too much GD government control. We the ppl are losing our rights one by one. If our government doesn't like something in the Constitution, gov says TS and does what it wants. Damn, but I'm mad. :P

What these justices don't realize, is how this opens a door for a HUGE shitstorm of other lost benefits... But luckily, they are on the public dole, so no worries for them personally.

While I don't agree with the religious aspect of that decision. I do not believe contraceptives should be included in health insurance plans. But there are a lot of things that I do not believe should be covered under health insurance...plastic surgeries for cosmetic reasons, abortions (for non health related issues), anything to do with drugs, smoking, alcohol, or overeating abuse, injuries due to extreme sports. I'm sure I'm missing a lot of stuff, but I just don't feel I as a tax payer should pay for someone that destroys their own body intentionally. As far as contraceptives and abortions (for non health related issues) this is a matter of something you choose to do, pay for the protection or be ready for the consequences.

Yes. Completely ridiculous AND stupid. I guess they don't realize how much a pregnancy costs in insurance? (Not to mention lost time for maternity leave, pediatrician visits etc?

Was reading about the political worldview, the 'frame' of the conservatives in the United States, as described by George Latoff in 'Don't think of an Elephant' and it literally made me feel physically sick: such an uncaring, distorted worldview. The bad thing is, that conservative worldview from the other side of the ocean has been spreading it's influence like a disease and with force for the last few decades, with IMF, the World Bank, the wars they started (like in Iraq). Sickening, really sickening.
