My family owns a business. If they provided health insurance to their employees, they'd have no chance of making a profit.
Obama disagrees.I couldnt care less if an employer picks insurance that covers BC or not

Obama disagrees.
Obama is trying to require all health insurance policies to cover BC. Am I wrong?and that means what to me? nothing lol
not to mention how do you come to that conclusion? all i know is that he wants all women to have access to cheap/free BC whether that is provided by the employer OR the insurance company. DO you know something factually different? "Seems" he couldnt care less either he just wants it available no matter where it comes from :shrug:
BUT I could be wrong, can show me other wise where he factually disagrees with the fragment qoute of mine you posted?
It's not about anyone believing or not believing in birth control; it's about the idea that anyone should have the right to be provided with it at someone else's expense--especially if that someone else who is to be forced to bear that expense is someone who has a moral objection to it.
Employers shouldn't be health care providers at all; we need universal coverage.
Forcing someone to choose between their morals, and providing health insurance to their employees, isn't necessarily wrong, but there should be a reason.So what if someone has a "moral objection" to providing cancer treatments? Or any basic health care at all? Or how about health care to blacks? Can people opt out of that too?

You don't get to go forcing your personal moral convictions on other people, period. I'm sure the guy who doesn't want to pay for health care for non-whites or women or pygmies has a "reason", we just don't take that reason seriously, any more than we should take the religious reason seriously. Don't like birth control? Don't take it. What the people who work for you do is none of your damn business. You can no more tell them not to take birth control off the clock than you can tell them not to use Twitter. No insurance plan specifically funds birth control or abortion services as a separate optional coverage. Here's your bill. Pay it. You don't get to pick and choose what the money goes to, any more than you can opt out of cancer treatment or burn injuries.
This whole thing is idiotic.
That isn't what this is about. Your comments might be relevant in a different thread.What the people who work for you do is none of your damn business. You can no more tell them not to take birth control off the clock than you can tell them not to use Twitter.
They X-Rayed my wrist, I doubt a malignant tumor in my gut would have shown on that one. Do you want me to have a malignant tumor in my gut?
Reread my post. It was about health insurance policies and made no mention of employers.no and yes you are
its not that cut a dry. what he wants is women to have access to cheap/free BC whether that is provided by the employer OR the insurance company.
So I again ask you for proof of what you claimed? Your claim may be true but I have seen nothing to suggest so.
You told me obama disagrees with the partial quote of mine you posted, Im asked you why that matters and how you know that?
Let me know when you have an answer.
That isn't what this is about. Your comments might be relevant in a different thread.
I didn't say they were forced to do something; I said they were forced to CHOOSE.this again?
they arent forced at all, there is no force in reality, they don't have to run a public business if they dont want to. BUT if they do they have to play by the same rules has EVERYONE, no special treatment, the reason would be discrimination and rights infringements.
Reread my post. It was about health insurance policies and made no mention of employers.

Actually, you're right. I did confuse employers with insurance policies. I apologize. Why do you assume that it wasn't an honest mistake?NO, YOU reread what you quoted me as saying, quite dodging and back up your statements LMAO
why can you never simply be honest and back up your statements.
Actually, you're right. I did confuse employers with insurance policies. I apologize. Why do you assume that it wasn't an honest mistake?
Some employers provide health insurance to their employees. A portion of them provide a policy that doesn't cover BC. This mandate prohibits that. Some employers are morally opposed to paying for BC. If they also want to provide health insurance to their employees, they can't do both, so they're forced to choose. Those are the facts. If I'm wrong, prove it.yep you sure did but thats not all you said.
You said exactly "choose between their morals, and providing health insurance to their employees" this isnt true!
the choice is to get involved in public business or not get involved in public business hence the rest of my post which you conveniently ignore that supports and explains what Im saying. WOW
oh-hum LMAO can you ever reply in content and reality? EVERY? lol
false accusations, a weak form of debatingWhy do I assume it wasn't an honest mistake? that's easy, your post history and the many other "mistakes" you have made and never claimed to have. :shrug:
Everyone starts with a clean slate, then I can only judge you by what you show me and you have shown plenty of dishonesty.
