    Excuse, but your notion that pro-choce are also anti education is complete partisan BS. The Internet is rife with such info.

    Meanwhile, a burgeoning network of international organizations bound conservatives together. Born a year after Cairo, the World Congress of Families united Christians, Muslims, Hindus and Jews who opposed abortion, same-sex marriage and sex education. It received a letter of praise in 2004 from President George W. Bush, who had declared that one-third of U.S. foreign assistance for HIV/AIDS prevention would be devoted to abstinence-only education.
    .....
    With the election of Barack Obama, U.S. foreign policy became friendlier to sex education and reproductive rights. But the global campaign against sexual information for adolescents continued. In Asia and Africa, especially, critics railed against “Western” sex education. They simultaneously made common cause with their conservative brethren in the West, borrowing the rhetoric of family values and — increasingly — multiculturalism.

    Sounds like it is time to get wages up. With 1% controlling 50% of the wealth in this country via supply-side socialism, demand-side of the economic equation is under-capitalized. In the year 2017, it is amazing how con artists contend that capital is not important in capitalism.

    I believe I claimed responsibility in this thread in a reply to you for the 3 children I helped conceive and I even included responsibility for myself and my wife. I also claim responsibility for my elderly inlaws who live with us. I take care of my responsibilities and I expect the same of everybody, male or female.

    Why does New Mexico have to be so much like Old Mexico?

    " 1% controlling 50% of the wealth in this country"

    Where did you come by that statistic?

    But the man can't have sex without her permission under normal circumstances so in the end, who's ultimately responsible for getting themselves pregnant? Their body their control. The man plays a part of course but a woman can NOT get pregnant unless she allows herself. Again, rape not included.

    Maybe if she goes to work for min wage, she will lose that medicaid and have no insurance? Because most service jobs don't offer health insurance.

    No one stops having sex because they can't afford a baby. They have sex because it's so damn pleasurable and sex drive is high among the young.
    Babies are an unintended consequence many times. Especially if no access to BC or even abortion if they choose.
    Not all get subsidized either.

    Condoms break. May get forgotten in the heat of the moment. How about free abortions to those who choose? Cheaper than a baby that can't be paid for, and the support for much of the next 18 yrs.

    When in the history of mankind has abstinence ever worked? Yes, if one doesn't have sex no pregnancy. But, 99% of humans will have sex.

    Reliable still is not 100% guaranteed. Most who don't want to be pregnant do take precautions. Certainly not all, for some role the dice in the heat of the moment.

    It's not been recorded. But there is a story. I think there may be more than 1 of those stories.

    Yep, there are.

    Please point out where I suggested it did. Doesn't a married woman have a chance of having a spouse with medical insurance or perhaps in-laws to advise the couple that bc pills are a wise decision?

    Most men have sex with women, mostly because they don't want sex with themselves or other men.
    So I fail to see what point you're trying to make. Except to blame women 100%.

    Then it was a pointless response to my post. OK then.

    There is a chance, just like there's a chance they won't have insurance.
    And I bet, most every couple practices BC in some fashion, but, odds will catch up to people at some point.
    If BC wasn't practiced at all, people would still be having 15 kids. They simply don't anymore because they us BC or abortion.

    I didn't blame women 100%. If you choose to jump off a cliff and break your legs is it YOUR fault or the cliff? If you stick your hand into tiger cage and he rips it off who's fault is it? Asumming a normal relationship, a woman can NOT get pregnant unless she chooses to have sex. She has to choose to let the guy empregnate her just like she can choose to abort it. I fully support free abortions once, maybe twice, always in the case of rape. After that, forced sterility because the woman is obviously too stupid to breed. Same with any dead beat dads. Cut their balls off.

    Chooses? If you say. Have you ever chosen not to eat? How long do you think you can go on that choice?

    Sorry. I fail to see what out of wedlock babies had to do with what I replied to.

    Most jobs around here, even fast food start over $10. She can then at least purchase off the exchange. Why did you immediately find reason why the able bodied young woman on medicaid shouldn't bother working or attempting to get insurance? **gasp** she may have to actually go to work and pay a little something for her own healthcare!

    I don't get medicare, I don't use the exchange. I merely offered 1 reason why some people choose not to work. They lose benefits for every $$$ they earn. Sometimes to the point of not being able to afford the rent and food.

    Cue, people get too much welfare.

    Before we were married, my wife had free birth control, I wore condom, and we made other precautions. Their actions are their responsibility.

    Yes, you cued correctly. If someone can get so much free **** that it becomes more valuable than working, they get too much free ****. There is no consequence for them to be a lazy ass moocher.
