Oh please, where in the world are you coming up with this info My daughter was between jobs and was uninsured for a couple of months. Her birth control was almost $200 a month out of pocket. And the doctor exam was $150 each visit. But maybe you should tell the boys to keep it in their pants.
The doctor exam, which would be annual sounds like it could be accurate but the cost for one month of birth control is very high and far from typical.
Isn't Obamacare supposed to provide everyone with healthcare?
Why do we need PP at all if Obamacare is supposed to fix everything?
Yes, obamacare was supposed to provide an annual exam which includes pap and breast exam. Obamacare was also supposed to provide free birth control. I thought so anyway.

So if PP was defunded tomorrow no one would be the worse for it.
I'm not sure why folks don't comprehend this. What does planned parenthood do? Well 5% of their funding provides abortions......but a FAR FAR larger amount provides birth control. So what happens if you lose that?
Abortions go up. A LOT.
So I don't get it, these attacks on planned parenthood seem to be a excellent way to cause more abortions to occur. Its not like planned parenthood is the only place to get an abortion. Or don't people think about the unintended consequences at all?
It seems to me that the goal of conservatives is outlawing abortion at any cost but they could really care less about reducing the number of them. They might want to even pass laws to make the problem worse so they have a better chance at ultimately outlawing it. You saw this in the temperance movement, with some states still having laws on the books designed to make alcohol more of a social nuisance, with the ulterior intention of getting support for prohibition.
I know full well what Planned Parenthood is about. It's the most effective racist organization created to minimize the number of blacks in the USA. They are killing more black babies in NYC than are born...like I said, a very effective racist killing monster machine.
Wait, let me try to understand this. Women make an appointment and travel to a PP agency asking for an abortion and that makes PP racist organization trying to minimize the black population.
I thought Obamacare fixed this. Why is PP the only place to get contraceptives? They're readily available practically everywhere and most people qualify for FREE birth control through the ACA:
"If you have Medicaid, an employer plan, or an individual or family plan sold after 2010 at least one type of birth control from 18 FDA approved categories is covered for free (at no out-of-pocket cost sharing before your deductible)."
