Fluke claims that she spent $1,000 per year on condoms

I thought she said she spent that much on birth control. Pills are far more expensive than condoms.

The required insurance policy at Georgetown runs $157 a month, and only allows for ‘free’ access to the on site clinic. It carries a $200 incidental deductible, and insurance ‘copays’ are $30 per prescription for the class that would include birth control pills (if they were covered.)

Target, down the street from the college, offers pills for $9, the prescription can be obtained at the college clinic.

For term health insurance for this group, the insurance rates are a massive ripoff. Rather than dancing around Washington, these students should be attending the economics class and then start questioning why the college is profiting off of a required medical plan ($5 per month additional for administration).

Even more, why these plans are being charged directly to the student account (where they are most likely to be included in a student loan package) so that not only are they getting ripped off, they’re getting ripped off for decades at interest.

The whole thing is a setup from start to finish. The ObamaCare like forced plan at the college, the non-inclusion of benefits, the rip offs - no one seems to question a mandatory insurance plan, even if the student is insured otherwise, that mostly includes the on site clinic which used to be free for students anyway.

Birth control pills are on the four-dollar list at Walmart.

It has been well established that birth control pills can be purchased for as little as $5. a month. They are available for $9 at most big box stores (No pun intended!)

As for ‘birth control’ oral contraception is anything but. It is a carcinogen (Class 1). It is a massive dose of chemicals masquerading as natural hormones that ‘trick’ the body into thinking it is ‘pregnant’. It creates a uterine wall that doesn't accept implantation thereby causing a miscarriage, IE: chemical abortion, of a fertilized egg. It unnaturally regulates the natural menstrual cycle of a woman's’ body, and has been PROVED to increase serious risk factors for: uterine cancer, breast cancer and HEART DISEASE (particularly in women over the age of 35), and believe it or not: UNPLANNED PREGNANCIES. More than half the women who abort their babies do so while practicing one OR MORE forms of birth control! Most are on the oral birth control pill! It's called a failure rate and oral birth controls failure rate is close to 10%. If the failure rate of an airline flight was 10%, would you fly?

Every thing the Left says is a LIE! Everything they accuse others of is pure projection! To even engage in the discussion is to have lost the fight.

The proper answer for all concerned is that NOBODY WANTS TO TAKE BIRTH CONTROL AWAY FROM WOMEN: WE JSUT ARE NOT GOING TO PAY FOR A VOLUNTARY MEDICAL PROGRAM!
