Planned Parenthood = not free

How Do I Get Birth Control Pills? How Much Do Birth Control Pills Cost?

First, you’ll need to get a prescription. Visit a Planned Parenthood health center, a clinic, or a private health care provider for a prescription. Your health care provider will discuss your medical history with you, check your blood pressure, and give you any other medical exam that you may need. If you need an exam, it may cost about $35–$250.

Birth control pills may be purchased with a prescription at a drugstore or clinic. They cost about $15–$50 a month. 

Planned Parenthood works to make health care accessible and affordable. Some health centers are able to charge according to income. Most accept health insurance. If you qualify, Medicaid or other state programs may lower your health care costs. 

Call your local Planned Parenthood health center to get specific information on costs.

“Planned Parenthood = not free”

DO THEY HAVE TO BE FREE???!!! Geez, what is with people? I don’t care if they are free or not. I know several women who go to the local Health Center for their exam and 1 years worth of pills. The cost is $12. AGAIN - 12 DOLLARS for a YEAR’S SUPPLY and EXAM. I think ANYONE can afford $12 for a year. And guess what, all of those women have health insurance. So their employer pays for health insurance, tax payers pay for the health centers and all they have to do is pay 12 EFFIN dollars. Get a grip. $1 per month, that’s close enough to free for me. Is that too much for you to pay? If you can’t afford $12 a year, you have much bigger problems. Even if you pay your $35-$250 for an exam and $15 per month. So what!!!

If you really can’t afford $1 per month or you can’t find a guy to pay 20 cents for a rubber to have sex with you, I feel really sorry for you.

I might get behind a plan which has taxpayers and employers pay for mandatory permanent sterilization of anyone who thinks that they should bear no responsibility for themselves. That would be a good start to ridding us of the leaches on the left.
