“...Affordable Care Act went into effect making birth control free for women with insurance.”
Wait - what - you have to have insurance? I thought they were supposed to throw contraceptives into car windows at red lights!
THAT is part of the Affordable Care Act. YOU must PAY for insurance, whether you need it, or want it (and regardless to whether you actually get any health care without paying the whole bill yourself), or you will be fined and could be jailed.
