Not everywhere, but it should be free, and as I said, what we really need is extensive family planning services. Europe doesn't have the problems we have with this, and they have much more generous social services.
There is birth control provided by welfare yet these people don't use it.
So is a 1$ condom too expensive that the government should pick up the tab?
You can get them cheaper than that at the flea market. I saw hundreds of them being sold today with probably hundreds of WIC recipients passing by them.
Hell they give them out free at almost all Government reeducation camps.... Opps I mean public schools.

europe also doesn't have blacks and mexicans. pretty sure they lead the way in unwanted pregnancies. sure, there are plenty of whites that have unplanned pregnancies, but I bet if you took blacks and mexicans out of the equation, we're pretty much on par with europe.
1) She has an associates degree and is unemployed by choice - husband has a factory floor job
2) She games the system to collect unemployment
3) She calls our governor "Hitler" for passing a law that says "able-bodied" people can't be unemployment for more than 4 years
4) She collects enough handouts that she tries to give us extra breakfast cereal that she purchased with WIC
5) She has 4 kids and is talking about having a 5th kid
6) She considers "Romney evil and voted for Obama
This is our nation's fate, this is our nation's demise.
Those are the mooches having babies not the educated people who support their kids.
Yes, they should get rid of all those programs. The government should not be steeling from one party to give it to another.
Seniors have bad their entire life to prepare for old age. Social security should only be for those who paid into it with benifits directly tied to Contrabutions.
It was never designed that way. When S.S was established, half of the population was dead before they reached the age making them eligible to receive benefits.

Sure, but whites have lower poverty rates to begin with (just like Asians). As such, we need more programs to ensure family planning is done, and contraceptives are widely used.
Same reason they always have. Pregnancy happens, birth control fails, don't believe in abortion, circumstances change, people lose jobs, divorce, plain ol' irresponsibility and ignorance.
Of all the things your tax dollars go for WIC is what chaps your butt. WIC vouchers pay for formula and particular foods, its a supplement to help insure proper nutrition for those needing some financial assistance.
I received WIC back in 1980 while I was out of work for obvious reasons (4 weeks paid leave the rest was unpaid) and my husband got a temporary lay off from his job at the time. The formula then was about 8 dollars a can, I think it is over 20 now. I don't think we caused the collapse of the economy and have since paid in way more to the system than we used.
Do you want your $3 back?
You are the poster child for the program, additionally you have those whose husband ran off or died and the kids don't get much SS benefit etc etc etc.
On the other hand, I have relatives that won't get married so the mom continues to get all the benefits and they can enjoy a better lifestyle.
I'll be happy to give back all my government subsadies I use, oh look, I don't receive any government subsadies.
When is expecting people to take responsibility for their decisions too much to ask?
Plus the only people talking about hate in this thread is the liberals who hate republicans for wanting to limit the theft of their income from government.
Yep I keep hearing how much conservatives stink but not many are saying the same about liberals. I'm trying to understand why people think they can do anything they want and tax payers will support them. I have met many with that mentality and tired of it.

We are evil because we made smart decisions throughout our life, now we must pay for all of those that made dumb life choices. If we don't want to pay we become evil and racists.
