Legislature like this would be a stride in that direction. It’s akin to giving people the right to choose to join a public sector union. It would help cripple that scummy organization.

I agree with you! Anything that diminishes the "services" that PP offers to women, the BETTER! And for them to say it would cost MORE is because right now it is being forced to be given out as socialized medicine! The fact is that most people can get birth control at Wal-Mart for around $4 a month! If you can't afford that, then you have a very serious financial priority issue, not a lack of birth control access issue!

More importantly, it would take this wedge issue off of the table for Democrats and THAT is why they are screaming bloody murder!

“The fact is that most people can get birth control at Wal-Mart for around $4 a month! If you can’t afford that, then you have a very serious financial priority issue”

I recently heard someone bitching about having to pay a $250 copay for deviated septum surgery ... I’ve seen people flip out having to pay $10 for a prescription like Zithromax. People are well trained to think that anything related to ‘health’ should be free.

The only reason Government wants control of health care is for population control. If you’re going to go full Soviet, you gotta make sure the masses are kept to a managable level ... this typically involves a political purge followed by a war, followed by “the best healthcare on the planet for free”. I’ll never understand the mind of a statist ... if socialism is so great, why is it always implemented at gunpoint?

Sorry for straying off topic :-).
