I argue that it isn't an either/or question, but still support contraception for women not ready to become mothers. Frankly, with the over-population for the planet's sustainability, I think it should be mandatory. We don't need one extra person.
We are already paying for contraception via Planned Parenthood and Medicaid.
There is no viable issue regarding the use of contraception. Most people practice it. Even in Islamic countries, whose culture supports divorce when one partner is infertile, contraception is acceptable. The issue is whether churches whose tenets do not allow contraception and/or abortion should be mandated to cover the expense of it for their employees......but somehow that translates into a phony "Right Wing war on women". The Catholic Church is almost as liberal as any church gets, except on this one issue.
Paying for someone's contraceptive medications for 18 (or more) years IS welfare.
It's called The Big Picture and In the Grand Scheme of Things. What in the hell is so hard to grasp about that?
Contraception....and it's a no brainer for anyone with an I.Q. above 2.
