Hoards of welfare babies will grow up and more likely make you perish, while depriving you of your precious possessions.
I doubt it, 70% of Medicaid (welfare) babies never make it out of the bottom quintile income level (ceiling $20,000/year) their entire lives. They're doomed to life in the projects, etc.
I provided several Broward County links to information about the multitude of options for free birth control that already exist.
You'd rather duke it out with IC about the pill?
Broward County is in FL. What about all the other states? I imagine those outlets have income parameters for distribution of contraceptives. Bet the pill is not among them.
We're talking about irresponsible and unchecked reproduction. It doesn't seem like it would result in the scenario you describe--quite the opposite. So maybe not the best analogy.
You're assuming those who cannot afford to support a child will suddenly acquire personal responsibility to prevent such a birth. They will not.
Yes, words matter. Everything which would benefit the nation as whole is covered in that.
Actually, that specific quotation mentions STATES, not individuals. You're merely reading what you wish into it, which is invalid.
Here's an example of the US Constitution explicitly mentioning individuals, and there are many more examples besides this:
"No Person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty Years, and been nine Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State for which he shall be chosen."

Deprive you from your possessions = take it by force aka rob it from you. If you survive the assault, that's great, and if not, you will become a victim of the problem you helped create and maintain.
Yes, in many cases they will be a burden on the society all their lives, which is a problem you are fighting tooth and nail to preserve.
I looked, and at least here in Broward county they would not be easy to find. There is a program designed for high-risk (HIV) people, which I assume means prostitutes. The page to locate such facilities does not work, so regular people would not know where to get them.
So, while it sounds like a good idea, the implementation is not there yet.

It says United States. That is us, "we the people". Resolving issues which affect the nation as whole is a Constitutional mandate.
If there was a plague, should the government not provide vaccines because the Constitution has nothing to do with "we the people"? It has EVERYTHING to do with "we the people".
You think they pay that much just for birth control?
They pay that much for a whole horde of collectivist programs. Let us know when you get middle class Americans to give up $25,000+ of their annual $52,000 income to pay for your pipe dream collectivist programs.
I can't help it... The Dems have already demonized their only means of collecting enough revenue that will be needed to fund collectivist programs. They poisoned their own well when they told the middle class, repeatedly, that they pay too much in taxes. The truth is... they don't pay nearly enough.

It is dishonest to twist things like that. We are talking about birth control, and birth control alone.
As for other kinds of welfare, you are fighting hard to have as many people as possible dependent on it. Soon we'll pay $25 000 a piece to support them. Let me know when you get the middle class on your side.
