This is an informative article on what really happens when people try to legislate sexual morality and insist others live according to THEIR religious beliefs. Sadly, this is not going to have the effect the moral warriors are hoping for. Limiting birth control options by making them more costly or harder to access is going to lead to more abortions or more poor outcomes for both the mothers and children. Abstinence based initiatives have been studied and shown to have no measurable impact on abortion rates. Birth control use did. In a big way. Don't like abortion? Make birth control MORE available, not less.

So why is the current Administration trying to make birth control harder to come by?

Trump jeopardizes progress in reducing teen pregnancy and abortion rates


Teen birth rates have been cut in half over the last decade, which is beneficial not only to young women but to Americans as a whole. The decline is attributed to public health outreach and better use of contraception.

President Donald Trump has put that access to contraception in jeopardy with his rollback of a rule that required employers, with some narrow exceptions, to include contraception, at no cost, in their health insurance plans....

The Trump administration has already quietly cut more than $200 million for ongoing research into the most effective ways to prevent unwanted teen pregnancies, a decision most likely driven by ideology rather than science.

Three-quarters of U.S. teen pregnancies are unplanned and nearly a third end in abortion, which is much higher than the overall abortion rate of 14.6 percent. That’s the lowest rate since 1973, the year of the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade decision.

Teen pregnancy has multi-generational consequences. Only half of teen mothers receive a high school diploma by age 22, compared with 90 percent of women who do not give birth as teens.

The children of teenage mothers also are more likely to drop out of high school. In addition, they are more likely to have more health problems, be incarcerated at some time during adolescence, give birth as teenagers, and face unemployment as young adults.

I suspect most insurance plans will include birth control anyway. It will cost the insurance companies much less to pay for BC than birthing the babies that result from not using it. Also, the cost of a premature babie can be huge.

Fuck, if we sterilize every stupid liberal(redundant statement) then by God, there wont be stupid people anymore whining about how unfair life is, while stealing my money to give to a worthless fucking liberals who have Obamaphones and EBT Cards.


Typical liberal voter....
 
Nonsense, birth control is readily available free or at a very reduced cost at any public health office, has been for years.

And teen pregnancy rate has and unwanted pregnancy rate has been lowered. But the Trump administration is looking to undo all that work for cutting public programs that offer birth control pills and not making insurance companies cover it.
 
Fewer abortions.

Abortions can be quantified as discrete units.

Nonsense, it's free if you make the effort to obtain it, has been for years if not decades.

You loons don' have the first clue, just more whining and bawling.
 
Let Planned Parenthood start handing it out, make use of that taxpayer money they receive

Fewer abortions is not good for Planned Parenthood.

Fewer baby body parts for sale means lower profits.

Wow, at one time, to have a teen get pregnant in America, would mean some liberal got them drugged and then took advantage. Why after 40 years of Liberal propaganda is there more teen pregnancies? Could it be because of liberalism?
 
Well they want to get rid of Medicaid and they really do not care about the poorer population in my opinion. No funding for Chip as of yet, and in my opinion they are only anti PP due to Title X.

They care more about the fetus before it leaves the womb than after.

No government official is preventing anyone from getting birth control.
All that is happening is the removal of mandates forcing people to do things against their will.
I thought you were against rape.

Teen pregnancy rates are on the decline. More and more young women are taking precautions.

If there's no funding or mandates many women will not have access to birth control. Insurance covers viagra no questions asked. Why can't birth control be treated the same?

No one is forcing ANYONE to use birth control. It seems to be doing this country a public service by requiring employers to offer free birth control services in their insurance plans. This is allowing covered teens to access effective birth control, thereby dramatically reducing abortions and the generational impact of unwanted teen pregnancies when brought to term.
Where is it forcing anyone to use birth control?

Viagra treats a medical problem.

What affliction does birth control treat?

Yes I know about female issues. Most employers make exception when proscribed for those issues.
