– a few hundred million for STD prevention.
[/quote]What’s with the outrage over STD prevention? Are you social conservatives afraid that if STDs are cured that people will just go nuts having sex everywhere? Are you aware that AIDs and other STDs can be transmitted at birth?
I think STD prevention is a very good thing. It’s much more cost-effective than STD treatment (50 cents for a condom v. a costly trip to the doc).
I feel like this is one of those issues that Republicans use to get religious nutjobs up in arms. Just the mere mention of family planning, STD prevention, or anything other than missionary sex with your wife-who-was-your-first with the lights out and religious nutjobs go all batty.
Use your head: a few hundred million for STD prevention isn’t going to break us and may actually end up saving money in the long run. Compare that to the trillions in bank bailouts where the banks just keep going back and back to the trough with hundreds of billions of taxpayer bailout money evaporating on a regular basis.
If nothing else, think of TG who’s constantly at risk from potentially unclean strange. [/quote]
I do not think the problem is so much spend money on STD prevention as what the hell is it doing in a stimulis bill?

I’m sure that most Pigg readers would find it very interesting and I’m equally sure that many of them have never heard of the PPT before.

I tried the education approach on this board – after being called ‘doom and gloomer’, ‘conspiracy theorist’, being told that I don’t know what I’m talking about, etc for 18 months or so I switched modes
now I take one of two approaches
1. slap them upside the head in the hopes they will wake up and smell the coffee
2. throw the truth at them while laughing at the knowledge that they won’t believe the truth much less act on it
