To remove the freedom of Americans to purchase insurance that does not cover birth control? I mean, that what this whole issue with Sandra fluk is all about isn't it? It's not about access- contraceptives are readily available. And they are inexpensive. And they are, for women only, covered by most insurance policies. So why do they insist that all insurance policies must cover womens( not men's) contraception? How is our country better served by removing the freedom to buy a policy that does not cover contraception?

This is an honest question, so in this entire thread, where I am asking for input from lefties, i will refrain from properly referring to you as OWS parasites.

Thank you for your heartfelt comment. I will try to refrain from referring to you as a money grubbing, greedy, tightfisted asshole.

Sorry, I have forgotten the stupid premise of your post.

Doesn't mandated birth control coverage remove the previously enjoyed freedom to purchase coverage that does not include birth control?

I don't mind being referred to as a tightfisted money grubbing, greedy asshole. If I am like that, it is with my own money. I am perfectly content to let you do with your money whatever your little heart desires. I am not greedy with other people's money. Can you say the same?

It's cheaper: birth control is cheaper than pregnancy.

Why are you in favor of unplanned pregnancy?
 
why should sandra fluke have to PAY for her insurance at her school, in order for her to attend this school, and not have the coverage she needs.

you know that students pay for their own insurance at this school don't you....and they are forced to pay for health insurance with the school or they can't attend the college.... why should the school get to dictate her coverage?

I am not. And yes, birth control is cheaper than pregnancy. Is that why you think all Americans must be forced to purchase birth control coverage, or pay a tax? Seems like a pretty tenuous reason to strip a freedom.

they don't. she's free to buy it elsewhere.

Most full-time students in a degree program are required to have adequate health insurance. A charge for the Premier Plan appears on students’ accounts when their course registration meets the eligibility criteria. Enrollment in the Premier Plan can be waived if a student has other adequate coverage.

Fluke was not forced to attend that school. She chose it. Why should the school have to turn the religious tenets it espouses on its head to accommodate fluke? The insurance the school provides is the schools choice. Well, it was. Now it's obama's choice. And it seems like a lot of you are just fine with that, no matter how it impinges on the liberty interests of others.

Let me try again. It saves money. It's cheaper. It costs less. You're still free to waste money on other things, if want.

Yes. I. Agree. It's cheaper. And cheaper means to cost less. But that does not seem like an adequate reason to force every American to purchase coverage for it. And I am not sure if the aggregate cost of every unintended pregnancy significantly outweighs the aggregate cost of birth control purchased.

she isn't paying the premium for the group health insurance policy with the school??? She's paying for it Del....she doesn't get it for free so that means the bc pills or other reproductive services are not FOR FREE as others are parroting and screaming about above....

Where has anyone on this thread argued the false " for free" angle? Pay attention. This thread is about mandating that all insurance covers birth control ( for women). It's about removing the right exercised by millions to purchase insurance that does not cover it. It's a question of why so many think that abridging this liberty interest is reasonable.

iirc, her original whine was that the school ins didn't provide bc.

she doesn't have to buy it from the school. she's free to buy ins that covers what she wants covered elsewhere and she can still attend school there. there is no requirement to buy health ins from ther school- you just have to have insurance.

Even though you are an ignorant troll, I'll answer you.

No.

The other side of this troll's question is,

How many of you pay for benefits you do not want or need?

For example, a single woman paying for Viagra ...

Please, rw's -- Just THINK for yourself.

or a vasectomy, or prostate cancer coverage....why should a group policy have the women pay for either one of those in their premiums?

There has to be some give and take for every one in the group policy.

WHAT???

Where did you hear this crap?

For the very few rw's who actually pay for their own health insurance ... do YOU buy coverage you don't need?
