I'm sorry but, why should an arts and crafts store have to buy birth control for their employees?
Birth control has no relevance to the business, therefore by buying it for their employees it would basically just be giving them free stuff.

Unfortunately that's how modern employment works. Pay doesn't just come in the form of a salary or wage, but in the benefits employees receive such as insurance. Of course, this means lower salaries to pay for these programs.
Basically this case is just a matter of Hobby Lobby not including Birth control as something covered by their insurance program.

This is one of the things about America that always seems strange to me. The whole thing of employers covering everything like that and the importance of insurance. I'm not always up to date with the American politics so could you answer this, would Obamacare stop this sort of thing being such an issue?

Pretty sure this whole scenario is a result of Obamacare.
