First, let's review the role and purpose of Medicaid:
Keywords: LOW INCOME; POVERTY; LIMITED INCOME
Now, lets review the evidence:
Now, the opinion:
Fully 40% of births are covered by Medicaid! Why in the world are so many American's having children they cannot afford? Whatever happened to family planning, to include ensuring access to funds and/or insurance that will help to cover maternity costs?!
When can we expect the citizens of the United States of America to reinstitute Personal Responsibility into their lives?
If you can't afford to have children, then you SHOULDN'T have children!
This is the height of personal irresponsibility in America, and it's disgusting!
Can we put you on the record in support of Planned Parenthood?
Actually, that particular subject would more likely be addressed in Native American Studies.
Native American Studies teaches that the descendants of white Europeans are here illegally? Do tell. I only hear this being spouted by the reconquista (Chicano Studies types) whose native indian ancestors weren't even indigenous to "this" country. They are usually Mestizos from Mexican ancestry.
It don't matter to them, its like just throw the babies in the street or the parents can build a hut like in Mexico to fend for themselves, they want no birth control, want to probe women, don't want abortions, want pro life but don't want to pay for the unwanted children, maybe all the men between the ages of 13-26 every 10 years should be sterilized! I think some women would go for that!
It's a bizarre position. I understand, but don't agree with, these lines of thought:
- Babies are precious and we need to protect them from being aborted and keep protecting them once they are born because a life is a life.
- I don't care what you do with your baby. Abort it, let it starve, whatever, just so long as I don't have to pay for it.
But conservatives have a new, baseless and ridiculous thought process:
- Your baby is precious and must be protected up to the point where it comes out of your vagina, at which time it can be left to starve if you're a lousy parent.
You are implying that a woman cannot refuse entry. I believe you should tell us why you think that.
I was going to ignore this, directed as it was to me. However, I really think you need to be enlightened. Throughout history, some men have been known (I know this is hard to take, now) to put pressure on women to have sex when the women don't want to have it. Some men have also been known to be a bit irresponsible when it comes to pregnancy b/c they can just run off.
