1040: Pardon Me
Supreme Court Masterpiece Cakeshop Ruling and Artistic Freedom
The Supreme Court ruled 7-2 in favor of Colorado baker Jack Phillips, who refused to create a custom cake for a same-sex wedding. The ruling was described as "narrow," focusing on the hostility shown by the Colorado Civil Rights Commission toward Phillips' religious beliefs. The hosts discuss the distinction between selling a pre-made product and being forced to perform "creative labor" on demand.
