I agree that the regular old birth control pill should be sold over the counter.
I haven’t been able to access the web like I used to. But when I do the news is so bad that I can’t stay on it for very long anyways.
The left is pumping out discusting news faster than ever before.
The point may be is that they are trying to keep me off
Anyone unable to support raising children without tax dollars should be required to use some means of birth control.
If only more people would. We want people to check the data - and USE the data! - regarding guns and crime, or regarding minimum wage and unemployment.
Policy-making should also be guided by the data regarding contraceptives, abortion, and disease.
Including abortion? Your policy sounds like China. It also begs the question: Is population reduction good for a country? Europe is presently conducting this test. The native are willing to contracept but the Muslims invaders, not so much. What happens if the tipping point occurs and those who acceptt traditional western values are overpowered by those who do not?
The ironic thing is that the pill is an abortifacient. The pill does not stop conception, it stops the created life from attaching to the uterus and developing. Not to mention that only 1 of the ingredients in the pill is non-carcinogenic to women.
Truths the medical system assumes we’re not interested in.
Interesting thoughts! I think there is a clash of paradigms of which a significant segment of the population is simply unaware.
When one clashes with the Islamic paradigm, that gets a little hard to ignore. BOOM. This does not necessarily result in what I consider a wise or productive response. However, others have different preferred outcomes ...
If the population of a country is not working to raise their family and instead is taking money from those who do work, then that country will fail. When you allow the sloth to reproduce on your dime, bad things happen. Also, I don’t consider abortion to be birth control.
Plus, you sometimes get the (cough) "bonus" that it'll give the female thrombosis and she'll die of a stroke --- one less breeder.
Margaret Sanger, crisp around the edges in her eternal digs, is pumping the flaming air and saying "It's all good. Inshallah!"
True. As someone who believes that Yahweh is the creator of life, however, I couldn’t live with “what I don’t know doesn’t hurt me/anyone else/the Creator of Life”. I grieve for younger, dumber days...when I may have very well ended God given life by being a “responsible” young adult. Aye aye aye!!
I’m with you 100%.
Sloth might include the unwillingness of natives to produce heirs. Abortion is the backup to failed/no contraception, if it takes the form of morning after pills. People get to think that an early on abortfacient is sort of like an aspirin after a night getting smashed. Well brought up young lady wakes up next to a guy she does not know. Despite her headache remembers she has failed to take birth control pills, so pop in a pill; also pop in pill for headache. Too bad they dont have a pill to make the passed out guy in the bed go away.
“Sloth” also includes to unwillingness to address larger societal problems other than by throwing money at people who are annoying.
We could have a functioning education system, for example, but a significant number of people in power don’t want us to, and the vast majority don’t care ... so we throw money into a failing system and produce ever more illiterate and unskilled people.
We could have many more jobs available, at wage rates that reflect productive value, but ideologues and unions don’t want us to, and a lot of people just don’t care ... so we throw money at the unemployed, the unemployable, and the deliberately idle.
We could recognize, as a society, the social pathologies and attendant costs produced by people reared without fathers in communities without functioning authority ... but that would go against some people’s deeply-held ideology, and the majority just don’t care ... so we throw money at the children of the never-married and their mothers, and pretend it “fixes” something.
No matter how one “feels” intuitively about contraception, the point of this article is that the outcome of accepting and promoting contraception is more births to never-married mothers AND more abortions AND an ever-larger share of the population comprised of those who are immigrants, government-dependent, or both. Oh, and Moslems.
One can wish this were not true, just as one can wish that gun control reduced crime or that raising the minimum wage made the entire wage-labor population better off, but the facts are the facts.
But you are pushing contraception as a social solution. This policy led very quickly to the judicial coup known as Roe v.Wade, which created the most liberal abortion law in the world outside the Communists states, although this fact was masked by the Blackmuns sophistry about the trimester scheme.
I must have been completely garbled (not unusual) for you to reach that conclusion.
What I intended to say is that contraception does not aid with the problems we are told it will solve, including abortion, but is actually a contributing factor to abortion, disease, and family breakdown.
Part of my problem with clarity is that I hadn't read to the end of the article. I thought the author had made a more sensible argument than he actually did.
I didn’t think you were garbled. :o) And you certainly made a heapin’ helpin’ more sense than the author of this article!
I think this is one of those situations where “At the time, it seemed as if I was making sense.”
Going back to RobbyS’s point about paradigms, I think that one of the points of confusion for commentators in general is that we assume everyone desires the same outcome: people living in stable families, getting a reasonable education, avoiding vice and disease and crime, getting jobs, contributing to the community, etc.
However, this is exactly the situation against which the 60s-people now ruling us rebelled. If we assume they want to maximize employment and constructive living, while minimizing crime and social chaos, we’re probably wrong.
They want to maximize their enjoyment of their lifestyle and avoid all consequence for their actions, I think. In this they seem to be succeeding. Now if the boomers can just slip out of this world before the follow-on generations start chopping off their heads or giving them the needle before they are ready....
