The non-partisan Institute Of Medicine has recommended that the Obama Administration should force health insurance companies to make birth control free for all women. Unintended pregnancies cost the U.S. 11 billion dollars a year. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss.

  • @mrchiefofsinners lol...take your bible and stuff it up your ass

  • @ChristianMission Why is it the woman's responsibility? You are perpetuating the notion that sex happens because of 'slutty' women rather than guys who can't stop f*cking them. It's sexist and archaic.

  • Paying for "free" birth-control for women and girls, is a lot cheaper than paying for their Welfare, or for prisons for the unwanted offspring who grow up to be criminals.

    Most prisoners in the U.S. were born out-of-wedlock, to poor women/girls.

    Esspecially the violent offenders.

    When contraception levels in an area go up, crime levels go down, because a lot of the individuals who would become criminals, aren't being born.

  • @mle011 I know, right? Women should dangerously modify their bodies with cancerous injections, hormonal pills, painful contraptions shoved in their bodies.... rather than a guy putting a condom on.

  • TOTALLY AGAINST THIS CRAP!

  • Guys just need to put a condom on...seriously condoms are dirt cheap..why is it always assumed the woman must take responsibility for birth control?? For guys it's super cheap and there are no hormonal/negative side effects from a condom. Seriously.

  • This is not FREE birth control, you fucking tools. No one has a RIGHT to birth control. However, it is available to everyone at very low expense. You can purchase a year's supply of contraception, for about 100 dollars, easily. Condoms are very cheap, and they are the only form of contraception that effectively prevents the spread of STDs. Please, think... get rid of your fucking entitlement complex and THINK!

  • Nothing is free in life. Someone has to pay for this. The GOVERNMENT has no business mandating what insurance companies provide.

  • Oral contraception pills aren't solely for preventing pregnancies. Many women use them for many other health reasons, such as: controlling Endometriosis, regulating irregular periods, hormonal acne, and reducing the risk of Ovarian Cancer.

    Besides, would the many pro-lifers rather have women not pregnant than pregnant and having an abortion?

    Hahah!
