I remember that time that Paul Ryan and my church worked together to control my access to my medicine.

Oh wait. No, I don’t. Because it didn’t happen. Huh.

Oh but I remember those scores of women who died in emergency rooms because of...wait. No. That didn’t happen either.

Man. It’s hard trying to pretend that there’s a war on me, waged by people who supposedly only see me as a walking uterus. So say the people who take any issue related to my uterus and go “WAR ON WOMEN!” as if my anatomy is my biggest concern in life. It’s not like people are trying to make it harder to screen for breast cancer, or telling me that in order to succeed I need to be open to the idea of killing any child I conceive, or telling me I can’t carry a handgun to protect myself unless I can prove that there is a specific threat to me (and even then good luck getting a permit, and even then it will be revoked as soon as there’s enough time without incident). My financial security isn’t jeopardized by the increasing tax burden on me, that desperately tries to pay off a debt taken out (supposedly on my behalf but I never see the benefits) without my permission. I don’t have to worry that when I have children, they’ll be saddled with the same debt, and have to care for me because even though I’ve paid into social security (so that money is lost to me forever) it will be gone by the time I’m unable to work anymore and I won’t have half as much in savings as I would have if I’d been able to save and invest that money on my own. I’m not concerned that one party is trying its hardest to turn me into a leech, and lowering the defense budget while we have enemies who are looking to hurt us and I have my future children and grandchildren to worry about, and God forbid I move to a border state that offers more protection to dangerous illegal immigrants than it does to me as a property owner.

Mostly all I have to worry about as a woman is that the government won’t force my employer to buy one medication for me. It’s a vapid life, I know, but after all, I’m a woman. What can you expect me to worry about?

But it IS happening in the UK -- where they have their own version of Obamacare.

And it's FREE.....!!!
