My Solution to the Hobby Lobby Supreme Court Decision

The Supreme Court ruled in favor of Hobby Lobby in stating that Hobby Lobby did not have to provide coverage for contraception to their employees because they objected on religious grounds.  What needs to be done now is not bickering over whether the decision was the correct decision or not.  People who cannot afford contraception still need contraception.  My solution is to have a fundraiser and raise money so these people can have access to contraception.

It is important to make sure these people get contraception for two reasons: 1)If they cannot afford contraception, then they cannot afford raising a baby.  The more people needing help raising a baby, the greater the financial strain it will be for all Americans.  2)If they can’t figure out a way to get a few bucks for condoms or a few more bucks for the pill, then they’re probably not smart enough to figure out to hold their sexual urges as much as possible until things get better financially.

If there is enough positive response to this idea, I will set up a donation page sometime after the Fourth of July holiday weekend.

Why I Haven’t Blogged About Haiti

The earthquake was devastating.  It is estimated that 50,000 people died as a result of the earthquake.  The reason why I haven’t blogged about is simple:  Nothing I can say can bring them back.  There is nothing I am about to write that hasn’t been written.  I don’t have a charity to donate to  that you haven’t heard of.  If I did, you’d be hesitant to donate to an organization you haven’t heard of as would I.

I am not one to ask people to donate.  People tend to know to donate after a disaster.  Some people can’t donate because their finances are too tight.  I don’t want to remind those who can’t donate to donate.

People around the world are heading to Haiti trying to help the survivors.  my thoughts and prayers are with everybody in Haiti and their families.
