Why Is Affordable Birth Control Important?

Tawanda - It's all about 'choices." I'm glad you've been able to choose having a family. I would like all women to have a choice as to the timing of their families.

They do, it's called self control! Try it!

I have never been on birth control, and I am certainly not an indentured servant or slave! What a negative attitude you have! Having a family is time-consuming, but I have done the "career" thing and can tell you that having a family is more rewarding than any job I have ever had.

"and I am certainly not an indentured servant or slave!"

No shit, Sherlock!

Voluntarily having a child that you actually WANT is rewarding.

Having unwanted children forced on you against your will is absolutely sick and evil (if THAT even does it justice), you know, just like how sex is great if wanted, but not so much so if it's unwanted and forced! It isn't rocket science!

Quit trying to impose your radical beliefs on everyone else.

Someone has to pay for "free" birth control - exactly who should pay? Should people who are morally opposed to birth control have to pay? I require prescription meds just to stay alive, and I have to pay for them myself. I don't see why birth control should be any different, especially when sex is optional.

tawanda: You make an excellent point! I agree for the most part, but then again, I would rather see my tax dolars go to helping you or for free meds than go to pay for abortions for Non American nationals in other Countries.

There has been some type of birth control since the beginning of time, and we imperfect humans, for the most part, have sought it out. Low income people deserve basic health care, like birth control, here in the richest country in the world.

Abortions are some of the least expensive procedures in the US, starting at about $350-700. The providers of these services hardly profit, and they have to worry about idiots who might what to kill them for a concept.

Hey, if you want to save on birth control, how about doing it for free using self control?

*immitates Dr. Evil*

HOW ABOUT NO! YOU CRAZY DUTCH BASTARD!

Seriously, sex is great, these anti-sex/anti-choice zealots need to seriously lighten up, or better yet, quit listening to that bullshit their 9th grade health teacher keeps spoon feeding them, I did, and I now see that sex is a GREAT thing that EVERYBODY should experience whether they want children or not, affordable birth control is an absolute necessity to this, thank you, PP and Obama.

Uhhh, but abstinence is free and also there's no risk of stds. But if you want aids, that's ok too.
