Roberts said it was a tax. You cannot religiously exempt yourself from paying taxes, say, because they are used to fight wars.
But there are certain entities that are exempt from taxes, such as churches.
Unfortunately, I think Hobby Lobby loses.
The “tax” will remain the same regardless of the outcome of this case. The issue is the mandate to supply certain healthcare services which Hobby Lobby opposes on religious grounds. That mandate is not a tax.
if it were a tax, wouldn't it have to originate in the house???
