1:57Now Playing“On Balance” host Leland Vittert discusses two recent positive outcomes for individuals and organizations facing government pressure. First, a hospital in Oklahoma was threatened with losing its accreditation if it did not extinguish its eternal flame in its sanctuary, which had been burning for 14 years. However, after the hospital's attorney argued that this was a violation of their religious freedom, the government reversed course and allowed the flame to continue burning. Second, a Michigan farmer who was protesting a Chinese company's plan to build a factory in the state was being investigated by the Michigan Department of Agriculture, which seemed like retaliation. However, after the investigation was publicized and questioned by the media, the government dropped it.
