Are you telling us that poor people are too stupid to realize the consequences of their actions?
No, but stupid people are too stupid. And there are a lot of them don't you agree? Not just stupid in the classic sense but ignorant, uninformed, inexperienced, slow, dim, illogical, unreasonable, shortsighted, etc. Many happen to be poor as well.

It's better for everyone to stop things before they happen.

Right, my high horse.... Then of course you do pay for it since companies look at employee cost. So, wrong again.

As for the rest of your post, there is no point in responding to a bunch of condescending personal attacks... you don't even know me well enough to make such comments, so I'm writing that off as a rant that is more about you than me.
That was you who initiated the condensation directly towards me. Follow the treads and find out. However, we have firmly establish your hypocrisy as we can see again in the bold. What a fine job you have....

P.S. If that warranty question was regarding my car, I have a 7yo car with NO warranty and the minimum insurance required by California... and one of my friends is a certified mechanic, who does auto repairs in exchange for crashing on my couch occasionally. Your point?

I made my point. You have made no point at all except to imply that any "benefit" may arbitrarily be distributed in command style economy. I revealed my funding model and the justification for it.You on the other hand cannot even justify your da guberment largess from the distribution of health porn. What the hell is your legal and ethical frame work? How do we make law around it?

Its people like you that destroyed the legitimate progressive movement. Tax policy and the public expense was said to have need a clear mandate for its function according to the foundations of classical liberalism. You have made it arbitrary because you find it convenient.

Another reason why men shouldn't be making decisions on these things
Yeah, well when you start paying for my condoms and spermicide then we'll talk, but other than that, I don't want to pay your BC

Why is insurance treated as tax dollars? Did they mandate insurance to cover birth control?

Default Dear Pubs...

You DO understand that by restricting abortion and birth control, that your policies add to the welfare rolls.

Don't you...




Which can only mean that your often stated opposition to welfare is just empty BS. Or that your deeply emotional opposition to birth control and abortion is BS. Or that you lack the intellect to recognize your incoherence.

They keep implying that sex is dirty. That's a viewpoint that's just bound to sell to the young voters.

Sex leads to children. And that becomes a messy issue when some people don't wish to neither deal with the already born nor preventing them from being born.
