Are you really that uninformed as to think it's free of charge? The employer (Catholic Church) has to pay for this with increased premiums. NOTE: The employee will also have to pay increased premiums so free of charge? Get real.

Also, it's no longer insurance is it?

I've no problem with contraception, but the Constitution does not provide for the federal government to mandate that a business provide a product free of charge to it's customer. Sorry, that's not allowed under out founding document. You want to change that, then seek to amend the Constitution, until then what's being done is wrong.

You left wingers are so stupid. You don't even have the capacity to see that government's don't grant liberties. They can only take them away. What do you think the root word "govern" means. Moron.

Back under your bridge troll. Next time you come here try not to act like a meat puppet.

Actually, the federal funds in question are provided for SERVICES RENDERED via contract. Get some facts before you shoot off your mouth.

Also, by your logic a republican president can force PP to stop performing abortions.

I've decided to explain this kind of overreach to the stupid using the following example:

The federal government has decided to help prevent unwanted pregnancy by forcing everyone to have anal intercourse every other encounter, regardless of your morals, ethics or personal preference.

Bullhocky! He got exactly what he wanted. While everyone was arguing about religious freedom he issued a fiat unconstitutional order mandating that a private business provide a service to it's customers FREE OF CHARGE!

Ole Hugo Obama is acting just like the South American dictator of his heart's desire.

What policy? What don't you understand about liberty, personal responsibility? The point YOU happen to be missing is it's YOUR responsibility to understand the position of YOUR employer. If you don't agree with those policies don't work for that employer.

The underlying issue with your position is that YOUR rights trump the rights of others. They don't. Period. Based on your presumption a company cannot choose to support only PCs, they must also accept Apple computers on their networks because the employee may prefer such. It's the company's RIGHT to choose what they will offer. The employee has the ultimate right to withhold their services.

Employment is a contract between an individual and an organization to provide services in exchange for benefits. Said benefits are agreed upon during contract negotiation. If either side does not like the terms of the contract, the contract can be dissolved.

You don't have to work for the Catholic Church. See, that's all part of the personal responsibility thing. You shouldn't be working for an organization if you don't believe in their morals and ethics.

Now, I don't have a choice if I pay taxes or not, and since the federal government has chosen to ignore and overstep it's Constitutional role (both parties to blame there!) they are impinging upon my free will.

I'm surprised you don't see the difference. One is optional, the other is not. Nobody is forcing you to work for the Catholic Church (yet), but the personal choice on taxation is taken off the table. Again note: I'm all for paying taxes to support a government bound to the Constitution. I take exception when I'm forced to pay for things outside those bounds.

The U6 is around 16%. That includes those that have given up and the underemployed.

I think Bee is leaning heavily on sarcasm here.
