Should the 1st amendment grant Hobby Lobby a religious exemption in its lawsuit at SCOTUS?

Hobby Lobby lawsuit is an exceptional case because it has corporatized the religious liberty. The 1st amendment should not grant Hobby Lobby a religious exemption in its lawsuit at SCOUTS. This is because of the fact that such liberty extends to the privileges, for-profit businesses and the rights, which have been associated since long with the religious non-profits and churches. But, as a matter of fact this change is the consequence of the deeper and persistent upsetting of the religious liberty law in America. The granting of the religious exemption means that the congressional intent is ignored, and the court has ...

This necessity is a natural need of privacy, which concerns the private life and time beyond the borders of their enterprise. Nevertheless, this distinction between the private life and the work time creates some empty space, which creates a well debatable ...

The performance and image of the company was profoundly injured because of lack of control and management. Inflexibility and ...

The Founding Fathers upon the establishment of the Union indeed recognized the need for a strong Union. However, this did not necessarily envisage weaker states. Indeed, the federal system anticipated a de-concentration of power and governance from one center to different peripheries. The difference between the time then and now lies in the fact that the federal experiment has been tested fully. Suffice it to say that despite the overwhelming challenges, America has a more perfect Union today. However, within that context lies a struggle for power that essentially pits the federal government against the state governments. This paper shall discuss the relatively dicey ...

The effects of globalization, technology, increased competition and the desire by companies to remain afloat in their operations, has in the recent past compelled them to expand their operations across the world.

A multinational company may also be defined as an entity whose assets, sales or total operations are apportioned and deployed in various foreign locations. (Martineau, 2000, P.6)

Introduction

Upholding ethical character is essential to the success of any organization. In fact, lack thereof compromises a company’s performance as it leads to mediocre performance or complete failure. With this in mind, it is worth appreciating the fact that the people in a work environment are exposed to multiple forms of discrimination. The development of this issue is largely accredited to the fact that the corporate environment has a broad level of diversity. As such, some individuals might not appreciate the personalities of other workers, and they may end up making discriminatory criticisms. Sexually oriented discrimination is very ...
