You got it right. Nothing is free. Somebody pays.

“The average annual saving for women was $269. “It’s a big number,” said institute director Michael Kleinrock.”
I was under the impression that the pill cost about $10 a month without insurance. How does that work out to $269 per year?

for a time though, birth control was not considered medically needed and I remember precisely that viagra and that other crap was....
I think health insurance is a priviledge that a company will provide....they can make what ever policies they choose as far as I'm concerned, but don't irk the females off by allowing viagra, etc and not allowing birth control....

E D medications are used to treat a condition where something is not functioning normally. On the other hand, contraceptives are used to interfere with the normal functioning of the body.

I agree with you. ED meds are not any more necessary than birth control. either both are considered, or neither.
and there are plenty of people who should have birth control pumped into their water supply.

Another retard who flunked econ 101. Who does he think is paying the $269? Oh, the corporations. Where are the corporations getting their money?

The average annual saving for women was $269. "It's a big number," said institute director Michael Kleinrock. Not mentioned: The average annual additional cost for insurance that covers birth control with no copayment.

Once the government can get its anti-child policy in place, believe me, nobody on FR is going to be allowed to have children.
Behind the birth control agenda is a population control agenda, and behind the population control agenda is a total control agenda.
But all these fools just think the government is paying for their free sex.

Viagra is legitimately related to healthcare, in that it is supposed to restore healthy natural function. That's what we mean by "health."p> Contraceptives have no legitimate relationship to healthcare, because they do the opposite: they impair, disable or destroy healthy natural function.
It's like sex-"reassignment" surgery. It has nothing to do with the real purpose of medicine, which is to heal people, not to maim them.

"Actually, a lot of girls go on birth control to control hormone swings." If they do that, they have an incompetent doctor who won't take the time or is too ignorant to look into the etiology of the underlying problem. Masking symptoms means you don't find out about the tumor or the PCOS or the endocrine disruption until you're very seriously messed up.

It’s probably occurred to you that they got pregnant because they wanted to. In such case, contraceptives are not the solution.

Mandatory BC, I think, is what Livius was warning about.
