Typical 5-4 conservative activism vote this SCOTUS is known for. We're going to be paying the price for the Bush years for a long time now. I mean, we're not even talking paying for abortion here, merely birth control, which if you cared about lowering the amount of abortions.
How long until VD treatments, HPV vaccines, etc lawsuits get to this court for moral/religious reasons? These religious activists have only been encouraged of late with a SCOTUS not having issues in what sane countries would call theocracy. This is on top of state legislatures running in legislation to limit access to abortion clinics. I guess the message here is that the state and business can and should tell us to have children against our will.
This SCOTUS is an embarrassment, almost every time history has given them an opportunity to do something modern they just seem to slide into the GOP-style politics that defines the 5 conservative-leaning judges. We're regressing and its concerning.
Hopefully, this will be a lesson to the electorate on how important it is to vote, especially getting young people to vote in presidential elections. The guys who are retired if not dead that put in a long gone POTUS still have their views forced upon the electorate via lifelong SCOTUS appointments.
