You got a guy banned, and you consider that a win?

Now back on point...
Romney’s plan requires people to buy *private* health insurance. Those insurance plans cover abortion...much like many of the insurance plans that every Tom, Dick, and Harry pay a premium to every month.

Taxpayers aren’t funding abortions in MA any more so than you’re funding abortions if you pay an insurance premium to a private insurance company that covers abortion.

Heh heh, I did not get him banned, he did that all by himself. I never call the mods, I miss the entertainment you guys provide...

As for the rest, it is what it is. You are ordering people to buy private health insurance. That is basically fascist actually, not socialist.

“Romney’s plan requires people to buy *private* health insurance”

And the law which requires them to buy the insurance also requires the insurance to cover the abortion. The insurance claims (including those for abortion) are paid from the premiums. This is exactly the same as if you took it directly from their pockets. The only difference is that the premiums are cycled through private insurance companies. The taxpayers have no choice. They have to belong, whether they want abortion coverage or not. The fact that the money does not pass through the government hands is a distinction without a difference.
