Sandra Fluke's Controversial Birth Control Testimony - YouTube

It is pretty clear to me that most who are discussing this have not heard her testimony.

Her very first statement that birth control costs $3000 dollars a year is a lie.

At the Planned Parenthood website it states that birth control costs as little as $15 a month.

So why listen to the rest of her "testimony" when it is predicated on an untruth from the very start?

Go back and listen. She did not say that. She said is costs $3000 during law school. Law school is 3 years. The school I went to was a 4 year program because it was a night school.

Planned Parenthood does not treat polycystic ovarian disease. And the cost of birth control is contengent on the woman's body.

The Real Cost of Birth Control - Alpha Consumer (usnews.com)

The Cost: According to Planned Parenthood, birth control pills cost between $15 to $50 a month, depending on health insurance coverage and type of pill. On an annual basis, that means the Pill costs between $160 to $600.

Birth Control Patch: This hormone-based method goes on the skin and works the same way as the Pill. Each patch lasts for one week and, like the Pill, users also face a 5 percent chance of pregnancy. The Cost: The same as the Pill–on average, it costs between $15 to $50 a month, or between $160 to $600 a year

It was a total lie on her part and if she was under oath, she should be arrested.

$3000 a year.

lets say you dont fuck for 2 weeks a year. give the vag a break

3000 / 50 = $60 a week in cost. Thats 10 more than PLANNED PARENT hood says you will spend in a month.

You want to hear that from your wife, I take it.

The issue here is NOT fucking. The issue is that the students are MANDATED to PURCHASE insurance that does not meet their medical needs. They are being squeezed financially to uphold a tenet of the Catholic belief. Once that Catholic school is open to the public, that practice is against public policy. That is well settled in law. That law school has taught her well.

BTW: She did not say 3K per year. She said 3K in law school. (Go back and listen this time.) Law school is 3 years. 3 years is 36 months. $3000 divided by 36 is $83.33 per month. By the time you paid Planned Parenthood for the exams it would cost that much. It takes a prescription to buy pills and no doctor in his right mind gives them without doing an exam. And as previously stated, Planned Parenthood does not treat polycystic ovary disease.

Still a lie.

180 a year times 4 years is not 3000 dollars.

I see you are rephrasing your argument. I guess that means you are admitting you were wrong the way you said it earlier.

I'm maintaining the exact same position I have since the very beginning, and you know that. Now stop trolling and go away.

So now you're saying that the insurance didn't cover exams?

Make up your mind.

What Pill costs $3K a year?

 

[Skull Pilot]

What Pill costs $3K a year?

None of them do.

People are trying to lump in the costs of other medical services that are most likely covered like gyno exams in with the "cost" of birth control.

That's how one gets the inflated figure of $3000

 

[Inthemiddle]

Lets not bs ourselves, this is not about cancer, this is about a free ride to fuck when you want on someone else dime.

Maybe this will sound unusual for you. But most of us have sex on nobody's dime. We get it for free.

Here's something that will also sound unusual for you. Sex is a normal part of healthy human life. Suppressing sexuality just to suppress it is actually unhealthy.

Here's something else that will also sound unusual for you. Yes, this IS about cancer, and any other instance of doctor-patient relations determining the best medical options for a person.

Why will all of these sound odd to you? Because you have an extremely unhealthy mindset, and irrational hatred for sex, and the absurd belief that you know what is best for each individual out there. You're probably also riddled with jealousy that you're not getting laid and other people are.

The issue at question here has nothing to do with women's health, reproductive rights or anything remotely connected to it.

The issue is whether or not the government is allowed under law to force a religion to do something that is in direct opposition to its beliefs and teachings.

Haven't you railed endlessly about the wisdom of the separation of Church and State?

Typical Liberal. No law can be equally applied to all.

No, the issue is whether a school can mandate its students to purchase insurance that does not meet their medical needs. If they were not mandated to purchase this particular insurance coverage, then they could afford purchase one that does meet their needs.

But, at Georgetown, if a student shows the school that they already have insurance through another carrier, they are not mandated to purchase Georgetown's healthcare insurance.

"Dear Student:

You may waive the Premier Plan offered by the University during the Open Enrollment Period, if you have other adequate health insurance which meets the following criteria:

- Coverage of at least $100,000 per illness and $100,000 per injury;
- Plan in effect no later than the last day or your applicable Open Enrollment Period; and,
- Plan will remain in effect for the remainder of your academic year.

This USMB Right Wing Nut Brigade member thinks that starting law school at 30 somehow reflects negatively on someone.

Less than $2 for a condom.

If you can't budget that in, you need to fuck less and save more.

You would want YOUR wife to tell you need to fuck less to save money? Yeah, right! You clearly have not listened to the testimony.

Condoms are not the treatment for polycystic ovary disease.


Condoms are not that effective as birth control. When I was in HS there were no BC pills. Few of the girls were sexually active, but the one who were ususally came up pregnant because they thought the condoms would work. They didn't.

Besides, you have missed the point. I have stated it several times. Perhaps you should catch up.

Okay, so you'd be all for the coverage only providing for contraceptive drugs for medical conditions and nothing else then?

 

[Si modo]

What Pill costs $3K a year?

Cancer? aids?

I dont know if your post was an overall question or what.

When pill is capitalized, it's the BC pill.

I bet you knew that, though.

Now you know - when 'pill' is capitalized, it means the BC oral contraceptive.

 

[Inthemiddle]

Her very first statement that birth control costs $3000 dollars a year is a lie.

That's not what she said. She said it can cost over $3000 during law school.

At the Planned Parenthood website it states that birth control costs as little as $15 a month.

That's for the pill. You're failing to recognize that there are many forms of birth control that are better or worse options for individuals, based on their specific medical needs. The vaginal ring can cost up to $80 for a three week dosage, which amounts to about $4100 over the course of three years at law school.

So why listen to the rest of her "testimony" when it is predicated on an untruth from the very start?

You're right about one thing. There's no point in YOU listening, because you're not interested in the facts. You've already made up your mind and are going to rely on false information to justify your refusal to face facts.

They still mandate you have something regardless of where it comes from.

And, they can get their oral contraceptives through their own coverage.

Who knew I would spend time pointing out the obvious?

sure...i was just pointing out mandates...shrug

Yup. And, her testimony had several believing that Georgetown students MUST purchase Georgetown HC insurance and, as such, they cannot have oral contraceptives covered.

Wow. Someone was less than thorough in their testimony to Congress?

And, folks actually bought it without investigation?

Wait, folks are intellectually lazy in the USA? No way!

God forbid that someone should seek new opportunities in life and work to accomplish their goals. Seems they all thought that they should just graduate from college at 22 and expect jobs to be waiting for them.
