Planning a family should be an individual thing, not something that the government should be involved in.
family planning is also a vital part of healthcare, since like I already pointed out, having children spaced too closely together can cause health problems. the gov't has seen fit to become involved with healthcare for a long time, haven't they?
Yes, it sounds harsh, but so does the collective voice of those who try to guilt people who into funding PP because of the personal sexual choices of some individuals.

The lack of personal responsibility of some of these people is astounding. I'm supposed to pay for people medical services who can't either keep their legs closed or are too cheap to go buy condoms. I am no prude and certainly screwed my way through my teenage years, but I had enough sense to know you need to use protection. I always wore a condom. They were plenty cheap. Anyone can afford them, even broke hood rats.
The reality is that there is a segment of our population that is simply irresponsible who want to go "raw dog" and then expect others to pay for their mistakes.

Healthcare isn't a right.
It is a commodity that should be purchased.

Try to remember that if you ever get hit by a bus.

It doesn't matter. Healthcare is not a right.
A right is not contingent on others. Government healthcare is contingent on tax payers.

You know, if everyone involved wasn't so underhanded, they could easily separate into two(2) entities, or mandate an unrelated one, and solve this mess, by separating the funding. But, they have to attach abortion to everything else, just to get it legal. Everyone knows this, and that is why thes videos were made. a spade is a spade, and this is every shade of black under the sun.
See if you aren't killing babies then more babies are born.
So babies are going to be poor, so the correct choice is to just kill them???
can think of 3 places in my area that would give a woman birth control for free.
History of Title X
The Title X Family Planning program was enacted in 1970 as Title X of the Public Health Service Act (Public Law 91-572 Population Research and Voluntary Family Planning Programs). Title X is the only federal grant program dedicated solely to providing individuals with comprehensive family planning and related preventive health services.
Yes, yes - It's a shame that everyone isn't as perfect as you and Edumakated. So now that we have established that there are people out there who make mistakes and then are too poor to pay for them

So it doesn't bother you that you could bleed to death in the street because someone mugged you and took your wallet? You would rather die than ask your fellow taxpayers to help you out? Healthcare might not be a right because it is "contingent," but society benefits from providing certain crucial services to its members. At the very least, the doctors should patch you up for free; if you want a single room, you can pay extra.
By helping to provide family planning, the government can reduce the net costs to society in the long run.
