letter to the editor:

Buy your own birth control

In response to the Wednesday letter “Hobby Lobby decision all wrong,” family-owned Hobby Lobby doesn’t want to go against its religious beliefs. Why should it or the government have to pay for women’s and men’s birth control, sexual enhancements or drugs to increase sexual pleasures?

I do not recognize these as medical ailments such as cancer or heart disease. These are selfish personal items for immediate gratification. If one wants to use them, fine. But pay for them yourself.

So many want to have power over everything and everybody at someone else’s expense.

Yes, I’m from the old school — if you want a cup of coffee, buy it yourself or don’t have any.
