Roller skating?
Wind surfing?
How about picnics?
What I am getting at is this: If a man and a woman aren't having sex to reproduce .. wouldn't it then be considered a form of recreation?
The government wants to help you avoid the terrible fate of being burdened with a baby. This is usually not a likely outcome of a picnic (unless it’s a really good picnic).
Liberals and the government are immune to rational argument.
“wouldn’t it then be considered a form of recreation?”
It depends on whether they are good at it.
This gives a whole new meaning to “ball games”.
N00b! Is this your first posted thread? ... Whatta start! GOPe payroll, to divide conservatives for the Rovian strategy?
The feral gov’t probably subsidises all of those if you dig deep enough.
I think it is a reasonable question.
It is coming. If you do not belong to a party or a government, you have no say and no rights and you need to be “stabilized” by the “international community”. The empowered need no stabilization.
It is how it works. All recreations will not only be rationed by government, but when they are dispensed they will be mndatory pills to take too.
Insurers - HMOs (not all but many) covered BC but traditional insurance plans didn't. Discrimination against women! Insurers cover male impotence drugs but not BC for women. Discrimination against women!
I've encountered this as an RN working in insurance for 20+ years. Every time I encountered it I would try to explain what insurance is for. So I'll give you that synopsis here.
In physiology there is something called homeostasis which essentially means functioning within normal health. Health insurance is supposed to get a person back to homeostasis. When something causes the person to be unhealthy such as an acute appendix, to return to homeostasis usually involves an appendectomy. For males, it is part of the normal functioning of the human body for him to achieve an erection. So when for a physiological reason he cannot and drugs became available to counter that loss of function insurers covered them.
For women, ovulation followed by menstruation is the normal homeostasis process. BC interrupts that process so to cover BC it would be an instance of insurers covering something that was designed to interfere with normal functioning. But women didn't care because in today's society you have strength in being able to cry victim and get others to give you something for nothing. That is where we are today. Hope that clears it up for you. :)
