Supreme Court Broadens Hobby Lobby Ruling to All Forms of Birth Control | Mother Jones
told you so.....
Less than a day after the United States Supreme Court issued its divisive ruling on Burwell v. Hobby Lobby, it has already begun to toss aside the supposedly narrow interpretation of the decision. On Tuesday, the Supremes ordered lower courts to rehear any cases where companies had sought to deny coverage for any type of contraception, not just the specific types Hobby Lobby was opposed to.
No matter what Alito and other justices may claim, court decisions set precedent and offer opportunities for lower courts to expand the logic of the initial case. (See Bush v. Gore.) The immediate turnaround to broaden the scope of Hobby Lobby won't do anything to dispel fears that the case has opened the way for a broad swath of businesses to object to any government regulation they dislike based on the religious whims of corporate owners.
told you so. this is what you get for a cheap partisan win. You get chaos.
I felt the same way when they passed CFR, I knew the courts would off the wall rulings from it.
Mandated health care is also going to lead us down legal paths that we don't need to go down.
This is what happens when Congress passes bill without knowing what the hell they voted for.
