Where You Can Get Contraceptives After Your Employer And The Supreme Court Refuse To Give Them To You

Well, it happened: The Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that U.S. employers can refuse to provide their employees with insurance coverage for contraception under the Affordable Care Act because of the eloyer’s religious or moral objection. This decision potentially deprives over 126,000 people of the option to get their birth control method of choice through their employer-provided health insurance coverage. If you’re one of the people affected by this decision, you’re probably wondering how you can avoid paying exorbitant out-of-pocket fees for your birth control method of choice, and/or how you’re going to renew your prescription without the aid of your doctor’s office.

Even more contraceptive resources can be found on Free the Pill. Free the Pill is a campaign setting its sights on making the pill available over the counter in the United States. Until they accomplish that, they’re providing a wealth of information on where you can get your pill online.



A public service announcement for normal people, A kick in the balls to religious and political nutjobs.

It's unfortunate that anyone who is morally or religious & has an objection to contraceptives should be required, before their objection is in effect, must swear on the bible before their priest, rabbi or cleric in their church during a service that that they have never engaged in any sexual behavior outside of marriage, and only had intercourse with their spouse to create a pregnancy.

BTW: The five members of the Supreme Court who voted for this decision should stand before the Country, and swear under penalty of perjury that they never engaged in sexual behaviors out side of their marriage, and on have had sexual intercourse with their spouse for the sole purpose of pregnancy.

Please explain why I should pay for someone else's birth control.

I will When you explain why my taxes go to Flights by AF 1 to bring trump to his resort at Mir a logo. And to pay for lodging and golf carts for the Secret Service profiting Trump?

You can buy them. They're real cheap. Besides, why I am paying for your crap.

You too are a callous conservative, aka, a sociopath.

Ah yes, more emotional rants and feelings without substance coming from the board hypocrite.
 
Yeah, that's really worked well [private health care] for you hasn't it. Your for-profit health care system is WHY you've lost nearly 140,000 people to this crud. Your entire population is so unhealthy because working people can't afford decent health care.

In Canada and Europe, more than half the deaths were elderly people. In the USA, where nearly half the population is obese, diabetes and heart disease are rampant, Americans are living up to their reputation as the most unhealthy people in the first world.

Your post is a joke, right? In the first paragraph, you say Americans are unhealthy because of the greatest health care in the world. In the next paragraph. you tell us that we're unhealthy because we are obese, have diabetes and heart disease.

It looks to me like President Trump saved about 2 million lives from the forecasts, from the left when this started.


Democrat Response to Coronavirus: End Trump’s Travel Bans on China, Iran
JOHN BINDER 11 Mar 2020 2:58

House and Senate Democrats are responding to the coronavirus outbreak in the United States by supporting measures to effectively strip President Trump of his authority to impose travel bans to protect American citizens.

While Trump has implemented travel bans on China and Iran — two of the most coronavirus-affected nations in the world — House Democrats are looking to roll back the president’s authority to enact travel bans from regions of the world.

Journalists Forget Their Own Predictions: Millions of Americans to Die
Jeffrey Lord

May 30th, 2020 11:00 AM

From The New York Times on March 13: “As many as 200,000 to 1.7 million people could die.”

From The New York Times on March 16: “Sweeping new federal recommendations announced on Monday for Americans to sharply limit their activities appeared to draw on a dire scientific report warning that, without action by the government and individuals to slow the spread of coronavirus and suppress new cases, 2.2 million people in the United States could die.”

From The Washington Post, March 19: “In the worst-case scenario, America is on a trajectory toward 1.1 million deaths.”

From MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell, March 24: If Americans go to Easter services: “If that happened on Easter Sunday, just 19 days from now, then in May, you’d have millions of dead people all over the country. Millions,” O’Donnell said on his MSNBC show. “If you have packed churches all over the country, including California, on Easter Sunday, by May there could be a million dead people in California.”

From Andrew Slavitt, Barack Obama’s former acting administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS): “Currently experts expect over one million deaths in the U.S. since the virus was not contained & we cannot even test for it.”

From infectious disease specialist Michael Osterholm to podcaster Joe Rogan the week of March 12: “We conservatively estimate that this could require 48 million hospitalizations, 96 million cases actually occurring, over 480,000 deaths that can occur over the next three to seven months…”

From CNN: “On State of the Union, Dr. Anthony Fauci tells Brianna Keilar that in a worst-case scenario millions of people in the US could die from the coronavirus.”

From Yahoo: "At the low end of the projection this would mean about 700,000 deaths. At the high end it would mean 1.5 million deaths.”

In other words? By this point, there were estimates aplenty in the media that there would be anywhere from almost a half million to 1.5 million to 2.2 million dead Americans. But mysteriously in all the stories about the 100,000 dead Americans there is no mention - zero - of earlier media predictions that there would be ten or twenty times that number of deaths.

Again, the abortion opponents can't see the forest for the trees. And yes I know this is about birth control. But the subjects go hand in hand. Easy and affordable access to birth control reduces the need for abortion. Sure, you can walk into a pharmacy and buy it...if you can afford it. But hey, let's let the corporations and their Republican party donating board members decide who gets that right.


No one has a right to have someone else pay their way. The pill costs 10-15 dollars a month. That's not really a large burden, if it is you can't afford a cell phone or cable TV.

.

And you're neatly glossing over the fact that the 10-15 a month you speak of still requires a doctor's appointment, blood work, and possibly other tests before that scrip gets written to the pharmacy. So depending on your insurance, it'll be more out of pocket than just the money for the scrip. Now your employer gets to discriminate because of their religious beliefs. Hardly equitable. Religion has no place in healthcare. One more reason to scrap the current system we have. And good news, attitudes like this are exactly why the country will eventually be pushed to nationalized health insurance.

How much are you donating to the poor and working poor to pay for their birth control?

Or do you believe voting for politicians who accept money from Planned Parenthood makes you generous?

Wasn't a ban. It was a restriction. And a fat lot of good it did.

And that scenario? How's that workin out for you now?

Perhaps they should learn the difference between wants and needs and the virtue of budgeting. Back in the day I lived paycheck to paycheck, then I figured out I had a spending problem, not a money problem. It would be nice if the feds could figure that out.

Explain to me why nuns should pay for contraceptives.

There are probably a LOT of nuns taking the Pill, because THE PILL IS THE "GO TO" TREATMENT FOR SEVERE MENSTRAL PAIN, MENSTRAL IRREGULARITY, AND OVARIAN CYSTS AND ENDOMETRIOSIS.


MANY OF THESE DISEASES AFFECT WOMEN WHO ARE NOT SEXUALLY ACTIVE AND WHO HAVE NEVER HAD CHILDREN, WITH GREATER SEVERITY. NUNS WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO GET THESE TREATMENTS WITH THEIR HEALTH INSURANCE.

Does screaming make your false statements true? Of course not. You're just being a troll. Grow up!

The solution is a tax based single payer health care system. Them everyone gets the same coverage and employers have no say in it.
The solution is to get the government the fuck out of the healthcare business.

Yeah, that's really worked well for you hasn't it. Your for-profit health care system is WHY you've lost nearly 140,000 people to this crud. Your entire population is so unhealthy because working people can't afford decent health care.

China has socialized medicine.

How many people have they lost to COVID-19? Note that the people "disappaeared" for publicizing Chinese deaths are not directly attributable to the virus.

Your employer offers a benefit package of their choice to workers. You are free to accept or decline it. Think of it like the water cooler in the break room. If you prefer a pepsi, you've got to buy it for yourself. That doesn't mean your employer is discriminating against pepsi drinkers, it just means that that you have to provide your own if it's that important to you.

Poor little commie, the court did nothing to change any of that, except for the paying for the filling of the prescription itself. Do you have any more irrelevant crap to throw out?

Abstinence/celibacy COMPLETELY ELIMINATES the need for abortions. If you can’t accept the potential for a pregnancy, keep your pants on and your legs closed.

Where does anything say that those other services will not be paid by the insurance?
