I am sick and tired of other peoples' hands in my pocket.
The Democrats seem to think they have carte blanche permission to dip their hands into my wallet whenever they wish. "Hey, we have this guy over here who dropped out of high school and we need your money to pay for his health insurance."
"Hey, we have this woman over here who keeps getting pregnant and we need your money to pay for her birth control/abortion/child's food-clothing-shelter-insurance."
The liberal mindset is truly bizarre. If I don't give them my money, I am the one who is costing the government money! This is so ingrained in their thinking that when you fight for your money, they begin to grin like a Biden-monkey and drool and show their teeth.
It isn't the irresponsible people costing us money. No. It is the "hard-hearted assholes" who won't subsidize irresponsibility who are costing us money.
What a weird, fucked up philosophy the Left has.
See my sig.

Two things you might want to keep in mind.
I'm sure you've heard the old axiom that 'a stitch in time prevents nine'. Well, birth control pills are certainly a less expensive option than pregnancy. And that's not even counting the cost of caring for a dependent child, assuming that the state might just have to step in to offer subsistence of one kind or another. Then there's also the cost of social workers and possibly the cost of the legal system getting involved if that disadvantaged child grows up to be an angry delinquent. What do you suppose all THAT costs?
In keeping with the idea of minimizing financial costs as well as societal costs, preventive medicine is considerably cheaper than emergency room care where uninsured people often end up if they don't have coverage. And who do you think ultimately picks up the tab for all those ER visits if and when those people don't have insurance?
The second thing you might want to keep in mind is that Republicans have been (and continue to be) perfectly willing to spend YOUR tax dollars on THEIR priorities.
