Hobby lobby didn't want to pay for women's contraceptives, which is totally reasonable. It's bullshit that any company would have to provide something like that. It's a private issue that the government and businesses should stay out of.

They were not "paying" for it. They specifically lobbied to deny it being covered under medical insurance. It is religious discrimination in employment.
