In your post, #136, and I highlighted it: "if he chooses to labor in a democracy where all have equal rights, he has to serve ALL Americans"
How do you justify that?
Where is this defined in our economy?Civil and human rights have defined nondiscrimination in our economy.
And then you skip back to laws:
My question remains how are such laws justified? And, no, the law does not justify itself.Those laws are the ones which tell the baker he has to serve all who come into his business or leave. He doesn't like his tax cuts and breaks from the government, then quit. But government laws of nondiscrimination apply.
If the baker must do it or quit then what of his equal rights to free association, contract, pursuit of happiness? Do it or quit is not a free choice of action. Bake or don't bake is, or should be a free choice just as it is the gay couples free choice to accept a contract with him or say no. Where's the equality?
