Hobby Lobby Stores, the excellent hobby store chain whose owners object to paying for abortion-inducing drugs as mandated by ObamaCare, had its case heard before the Supreme Court yesterday, March 25.

Paul Clement, the lawyer who is representing Hobby Lobby along with fellow petitioner Conestoga Wood Specialties, pointed out that Hobby Lobby would pay more than $500 million in penalties if they refused to follow the mandate.

Obama-appointed "wise woman" judge Elena Kagan said that would only apply if Hobby Lobby continued carry the insurance for the workers.

"There's one penalty that is if the employer continues to provide health insurance without this part of coverage, but Hobby Lobby could choose not to provide health insurance at all," she compassionately pointed out. "And in that case Hobby Lobby would pay $2,000 per employee (in penalty) which is less than Hobby Lobby probably pays to provide insurance to its employees."

She noted that other U.S. businesses are voluntarily dropping their health insurance coverage for employees.
