Businesses are not in the business of providing for healthcare. If they don’t provide what you want, you are NOT OBLIGATED to work for them

You're exactly right.  And that notion should be the centerpiece for why the employer mandate (which Obama has kicked down the road until after the elections) is unconstitutional in addition to it being a bad idea in its own right.

What about PAYING FOR YOUR OWN HEALTHCARE?

Well, that's terrific for those who can. "Those" doesn't include all of us by any means.

“In a decision of startling breadth, the Court holds that commercial enterprises, including corporations, along with partnerships and sole proprietorships, can opt out of any law (saving only tax laws) they judge incompatible with their sincerely held religious beliefs,”

The hell you say. Picking and choosing which laws they think apply to them.

Who the hell do these people think they are? Pres--ent Obama???

They need to be corrected every time they conflate the two, so they have to defend their support of baby killing.

Good point. I observed earlier today that the point of all this is to establish a "right" to free abortion.

Does this mean Christian bakers can’t be forced to make wedding cakes for homosexuals?

I sure hope so...

I thought Obamacare was a tax law.

Unfortunately, that issue is unrelated to health insurance or healthcare.

I suppose your scenario is most likely ( i.e. single payer ) But a system for health insurance that eliminated the employer and made health care the responsibility of the individual ( not the government) would be a good thing.

Well, if you’re under the government’s plan... remember this -— I am paying for your healthcare ( or all of us are ). Which also means, if you want an abortion, I am paying it too, whether I like it or not.

Ahem, THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CONTRACEPTION. THIS ABOUT HELPING A WOMAN KILL HER BABY. They keep throwing that word around. Contraception. The woman has already conceived. These drugs are abortifacients.

Our Founders would’ve found leftist arguments that the government needs to be paying for baby murder completely insane.

The leftist position is THEIR secular religious beliefs trump our Christian beliefs. F&$% them and the horse they rode in on.

All this idiocy can be traced back to Congress expanding “interstate commerce” to its current lunacy, and the courts finding “separation of church and state” where it doesn’t exist.

If they remake "Laugh-In," she can whack Arte Johnson over the head.

BTW Arte was great in "The President's Analyst" as an FBR agent.

But, like every despicable the left wants to do, they give it the “cover” of something that is more acceptable.

That’s what they’re doing here.

It does NOT have the breadth that is being claimed. Complaining like that is nothing more than political posturing.

Judge Ginsburg might want to look back two years to see when the courts created this minefield. It was making Obamacare legal as a tax that started the chaos.

Time to retire Ruthie.

I want her to stick it out longer. Perhaps to January 2017.
