[quote=njtosd][quote=briansd1]Good thing birth control will be free.

I think everything should be free – why didn’t someone think of that before?[/quote]

Not quite free.

But birth control and family planning are pretty damn cheap and result in greater savings for insurance companies, the health care system, and society as a whole.

So is it your point that things are relatively cheap, would result in savings for insurance companies (I didn’t know anyone was worried about them) the health care system and society should be free? Like say, healthy food, sunscreen, condoms, etc. etc? Like I said, why hasn’t someone thought of this before?

I’m saying that the insurance companies are smart enough to know what’s good for them.

Giving out free birth control is a good way to hold down costs for everybody. The cost of one less unwanted baby can pay for a lot of free birth control for hundred, perhaps thousands of people.

They give away free condoms at many bars across the country and the world. It’s good public health policy. People will meet and have sex, so why not give them contraception near the point of use?

I don’t think you read the posting. It said the following:

“Virtually all health insurance plans could soon be required to offer female patients free coverage of prescription birth control”

It has nothing to do with the insurance industry making a decision to be, in your words “smart enough to know what’s good for them.” Nothing in this world is free; legislators simply decide who is going to pay for things. And most people prefer that someone else pay. And frankly, if it’s such a good idea why is it only prescription birth control for women? Why not all birth control used by women or men? Where’s the logic there?

And you know what? If we eliminated all babies, we wouldn’t even need birth control! What a savings.
