I read that Hobby Lobby's investment funds include corporations that are involved in the "plan B" industry. So while the Greens feel it is right to refuse their employees using their corporate insurance to pay for the "plan B" pill, they are quite satisfied in investing and reaping the advantages of a profitable "plan B" pill company.

If the Greens were truly sincere, and not just playing a public publicity game, they would remove the "offending" but profitable companies from their corporate investment plans. There are mutual funds specifically designed to exclude objectionable industries..... unfortunately, they are not always as profitable as the "objectionable" ones.

I guess the Greens are not offended *that* much to move to a potentially less profitable fund. Lemme guess, they justify that by claiming that the fund choice is a corporate decision and not the family's.

It's better than that, they don't just have money invested in the emergency contraception business which they call abortion, they have money invested in the actual abortion business.
