I have no problem with the GOVERNMENT not being allowed to discriminate at all (that includes sexual orientation and the military). I have no problem with the government not doing ANY business with any company that DOES discriminate, either.

That would be fair, and Constitutional, IMO. The point of the Constitution is to guarantee the rights of the people vs the STATE, not in their private interactions.

Does this mean there would be some dumb-ass racist businesses? Yeah, it does. Freedom sucks sometimes. But if the government was forbidden to deal with such establishments, that alone would make more than 99% of businesses comply anyway.

An interesting viewpoint and one worth considering.
