The tax payer ultimately pays for it anyways. Might as well try and subsidize some health efforts (i.e. screening) that tend to save money in the long run.
that's the problem dude,, the taxpayer is expected to pay for everything, and only 50% of us pay FEDERAL taxes.. the gimmmie gimmmie crowd is now larger than the giver crowd.. we're going down.
Our revenue in this country comes from taxes. Of course the taxpayer literally pays for "everything". It's just a matter of what individuals deem worthy of paying for.
Until we get to the point where we are going to start denying people in this country health coverage, if we are going to pay anyways, we might as well pay for things that are going to save money in the long run.
Birth control is pennies on the dollars return when you start factoring the cost of unwanted pregnancies on society.
I can't figure out why anyone would think it's a bad idea.
because it addresses the symptom not the disease...as a budding MD you should appreciate that
What's the disease?
the disease is people like sex. the right hates that.

oh balderdash! we'll pay for the damn contraceptives, they won't take them and the abortions and un wanted pregnancies will continue who are you trying to kid? Personal responsibility ain't in the retardeddimocrats book of knowledge.
For once I agree with Modbert. If the free pill will reduce the number of unwanted pregnancies, it may be money well spent. However, I am not that optimistic.
Breast pumps are a convenience; not a life saving medical device. Absolutely ridiculous.
Beats abortion
So does personal responsibility, but I realize that's an anathema to people like you.
boy are you uniformed. who do you think is gonna pay for them? If they can't afford birth control pills they sure as hell can't afford insurance payments. so that leaves 50% of us again toting the other 50% on our backs.
Beats abortion
no it doesn't
The right wing opposes sex education, birth control and abortion
Then they bitch about paying for unwanted babies.
Preventive medicine saves money in the long run. I am all for covering birth control. I can't understand how conservatives could bitch about this, unwanted pregnancy, "welfare babies", and abortion.

If you are "healthy" enough to have sex, you are responsible for birth control.
If you are "healthy" enough to have sex, you are "healthy" enough to have a job and pay for your own insurance/medical costs.

That's not true. It's not debatable that breast milk is better for formula. However, it's hard to get young mothers who are below the poverty line to breast feed due to the inconvenience. Pumping allows them to store their own milk and ultimately have healthier babies and save money.

How much a year are "you" paying in taxes? Are you willing to pay double that amount to cover people that aren't working at "documented" jobs?

If they think "breast feeding" is inconvient, do you really think they will be use a "breast pump"?

Of course there will still be unwanted pregnancies and abortions. If it lowers the rate of both of those things though, how can that be a bad thing?

If your family is getting hungry and the gov't comes and takes what is left of your food for people that are "worse off than you" how is that a bad thing?
no it doesn't

Yeah, that's really worked like gangbusters in our recent history, hasn't it?

"Double"?
C'mon. Furthermore, you are talking about a separate issue.

Breast feeding is inconvenient when you are trying to work a job. Despite what you think, it's not always a matter of personal convenience.
