[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There should not need to be a law, because private businesses should be able to serve and hire who they want to.  We need to remove the governmental agencies, paid for by our tax dollars, that enforce these laws.

As for the Indiana law, the law was popularly passed by the governor and legislature.  The opposition, led by leftist elites from media and business, has as its ultimate aim the persecutions of Christians and Jews, removal of all religion from public life, and destruction of churches in America.[/quote]

Ok.  Well, let's play that out and put all the left/right/religon stuff to the side.  As the GOVERNOR of the state, how do YOU account for the negative impact on your state?  How do you deal with the big companes HQed there that will get pressure to move?  How do you deal with the organizations that will no longer have conventions there - bearing in mind that you have a publicly funded convention center in Indy and 2 brand spanking new hotels nearby?  As governor, how do you remedy the fact that the NFL will no longer hold a Super Bowl (a HUGE cash cow) in your state and it is likely that the NCAA will move and move its championships too - bearing in mind that public money was used to lure them?  What about the universities that will have problems bringing the OOS kids - who are the big tuition payers. And will you be able to lure balaced professors to teach them?  See, here is the thing.  Your tax dollars are NOTHING compared to the revenue that the state gets from other sources.  It takes money to run a state, not Conservative rhetoric.  How does this play in with the Conservative lobby winning cuts to sex and reproductive health programs there and now there is an"outbreak of HIV in Indiana.  Has Indiana relegated itself to a backwater state?  See...these are things the Governor should be thinking about.

I guarantee you that if the sate loses revenue over this and the budget tightens, the very same folks who are celebrating this law will be votig his ass out of office. [/quote]
