Are they really necessary? Can't we discuss the issues without

<br>
In response to your question, when I look at my latest pay stub
(posted for the 3rd of June), I see a line item for "<span class="ecxfieldformattext">Employer Contribution for Benefits".
It's about $350 in my case, paid by the employer per biweek.</span>
I also see employer amounts for "Pre-Tax Health Savings Account"
(their match for the amount I'm putting in my HSA), and "Long" and
"Short Term Disability Coverage". Also Medicare, but all
employers have to pay FHI if I remember correctly.<br>

of course it’s of no consequence to <b>you</b> that the

control is most appropriate is about a month’s wage for
lower paid employees without health insurance . . . or for
plans that exclude coverage for women. That may be
economically feasible for <b>you</b> since <b>you</b>
don’t fall into that category, but here’s a news flash for

Roe recognized a woman's
right to privacy. Hobby
Lobby creates religious
rights for legal fictions,
and restricts the rights of
flesh-and-blood people. HL
is not about restricting the
power of government and it's
naive to think that's its
objective. If the government
were restricting birth
control, as it once did,
this majority would have no
objection to that exercise
of government power.<br>

or perhaps I
should say, a
predisposition,
to adopt a
certain
philosophical
approach to
legal issues may
be shaped by
private values
that we trust
and hold dear.
In light of the
Supreme Court
decision
supporting the
Hobby Lobby
owners refusal
to provide forms
of birth control
they claim to be
at odds with
their religious
beliefs, I
wondered if the
court was
persuaded not by
legal arguments
but by their own
religious
affiliations.
Were any of the
five male
justices
associated with
religious groups
that uphold the
doctrine of
patriarchy,
i.e., do they
attend churches
that deny women
ministerial or
priesthood
roles. Guess
what? Justice
Roberts, Justice
Scalia, Justice
Thomas, and
Justice Alito
are Roman
Catholic. </span></p>

<p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="background:white;"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";">In
contrast, when
the decision
concerning Roe v
Wade was
announced in
1973 eight of
the nine male
justices were
members of main
stream
Protestant
churches. There
may or may not
be a direct
correlation
between religion
affiliation and
legal opinions,
but it is my
firm belief that
unearned gender
privilege
nurtured in the
cradle, and
deferred to in
the church
certainly
creates an
atmosphere that
celebrates and
bestows unique
privilege for
male members.
And, what could
possibly more be
patriarchal than
controlling
women’s
reproductive
choices?</span></p>
