Paul:We need less big government, but we need the govt to tell us how many kids poor people can have

Is that what you got out of it? I clearly said they share "some" of the blame. We all do to an extent.

I firmly believe a number of our problems stem for a societal problem. People get blasted for calling it like it is. Yes, women have some of the blame..

 

It was before ACA when I had my plan and when I first got this job, in 1999. Are you talking back in like 1966?

 

No it was late 90's early 2000's when viagra was invented. Here's the point though, cover contraceptives and birth control, make it easily available. Especially in poor communities where kids are born into welfare homes that rely on the government, food stamps, wic, etc etc. I don't understand how some people can be anti abortion and then bitch and complain about government freeloaders. If we stop the kids from being born into squalor in the first place we all win right?

 

I have never in my life seen an insurance plan that did not include prescription coverage for contraceptives.

 

Have you ever had an employee plan? There are alot of employers who even today are sueing to prevent having to cover birth control.

 

I have been a part of seven group plans with 5 different employers and they have all covered contraception. And it isn't as if birth control is expensive. It is one of the cheapest drugs.

And furthermore what right does the government have telling employers what benefits they have to offer. If I worked for a company that didnt offer the benefits I wanted, I'd find a new job. And outside of religious organizations with moral objections to contraception, who is suing?

 

That's too easy and doesn't correct the problem.
