CEO of Hobby Lobby: Hypocrite

Don't you hate when someone doesn't want to do something because he or she claims that it is against their religion? A few years ago David Green, CEO of Hobby Lobby took the Federal Government to the Supreme Court over a provision of the Affordable Health Care Act. I have no problem with people of faith following their religion. As far as I am concerned, people of faith may have something to teach the rest of us about how to relate to each other.

So what is the problem with David Green and why is he a Hypocrite?

Well he imported stolen property from Iraq...specifically, artifacts that cannot be removed from the country  (Iraq) nor can they be imported into the United States.

Poor David claimed ignorance....Except experts told him that importing stolen artifacts would be illegal. He even lied when he asked that the artifacts be mislabeled to appear legal.

Laws are only for average folks like us and not for billionaires as we have recently come to see.

Now poor ignorant (by his own admission) David has probably never heard of the 10 Commandments and specifically: Thou shall not lie or steal.

Even those laws don't apply to the wealthy.....

And not even his religion could bail him out this time as he was made to return the artifacts and pay a  three million dollar fine.

Poor David...What a hypocrite.

So why am I writing a blog like this? 

Because I don't hurt patients to financially benefit  myself or my office. As you know,  our office motto is: Do The Right Thing. PERIOD.

I won't steal from you or lie to an insurance company. 

If someone does not value quality dentistry, they won't have treatment in our office. And that is ok with us.

No lying, no stealing, no cutting corners.  I will put MY Values against David Green's any day of the week.
