President Barack Obama, a lifelong champion of abortion, is hell-bent on forcing religious institutions to pay for birth control and abortion drugs coverage for their employees.

The article talks about how the bill would allow all employers with religious and moral objections to birth control to refuse to provide coverage for that purpose through their health plans. It also states that "employers would still have to provide coverage for contraception drugs for other medical reasons but could make women seeking reimbursements explain why they needed it. "

This article talks about medical marijuana an how it helps with cancer patients. It talks about how kids on the street are able to get it no matter if it is legal or not so why not make it legal.

In this article, the author explain how if legalizing marijuana or cannabis, you benefit those with medical needs. Not only that, but it will allow the government to better controls it from the youth. Also proposes that it is better than other things the youth tries out, like alcohol, and cocaine.

You will find this article is comparable to oral contraception law, but also deals with the religious organization should be exempt from providing their employees with birth control. Here is a something I found interesting " It argues that while churches themselves are exempt from providing birth control to employees free of charge, "religious schools, hospitals, and social services don't qualify as religious, and must therefore provide these drugs and procedures."

Individuals should be able to consume as much soda as they want. I think that there should be more education about how drinking soda in excess can lead to obesity. Maybe warning labels on soda to remind people of the effects of drinking sugary beverages. I think it is then up to each individual to make the decision of how much soda they consume.

I total understand the ban, since most Americans don't pay attention to the main ingredient in soda which is "high fructose corn syrup". Research has shown high fructose corn syrup is as addictive as cocaine yet there are no laws regulating the use and quantity of it in food and beverages. High consumption of high fructose corn syrup has been proven to cause obesity and diabetes. There's not enough public education regarding this ingredient to enable consumers to make intelligent choices when consuming beverages and lobbyist lobby the government to make sure it stays this way.

I think this ban is ridiculous controlling the amount of soda and sweetened drinks people consume is wrong. Although sugary drinks can be detrimental to health, people have the right to control and live their own lives according to what they think is best. I like how this article has statistics and shows how many people don't agree with this outrageous ban.
