If you cant afford codoms you shouldnt be having sex.America...the greatest Country in the world.0 -
I'm really starting to hate the word "access", but whatever.0

So are you saying that condoms should be made available through our tax dollars?All I know is that to see, and not to speak, would be the great betrayal.

Of course not. Buying condoms with tax dollars is ridiculous.
I'm just saying that people predate condoms. So I'm not sure what miller's pre-condom predecessors were supposed to be doing.0 -

So you want me to explain a process I already said I disagreed with?hippiemom = goodness0 -

True, and like I have said, I don;t agree with that plan.
However, playing devil's advocate...someone falls on hard time...gets gov't assistance...so long as they don;t have a kid while receiving the assistance, they wouldn;t have to have the surgery.hippiemom = goodness0 -

Well I will play devil's advocate to your devil's advocate. What if the wife is already pregnant."When one gets in bed with government, one must expect the diseases it spreads." - Ron Paul0 -

What were their ancestors who predated condoms supposed to do?they chose not too because they knew i was the coming of the republican messiah.
Saying "republican messiah" is kind of like saying "swiss cheese balloon". The first term contradicts the latter.0 -

Should they just come and kill your children because you can't support them? Seems like this is where you are heading. Not my fault your company laid you off and now you can't make ends meet to feed your kids. Why should the onus be on my tax dollar. Lop their bloody heads off the parasites they have now become.
You're way off base. The point is that people are having kids intentionally to get the government handout...that is a problem don't you think?“May you live to be 100 and may the last voice you hear be mine.” - Frank Sinatra0 -

How do you prove this....how would you ultimately determine, without a doubt, this was the case?0 -

I said in an earlier post in this thread that my wife who is a teacher at a very urban school, has girls in her class that when asked about college tell her that they will just have babies and go on welfare like their mom or aunt does! This kind of thing is a reality, it's happening.“May you live to be 100 and may the last voice you hear be mine.” - Frank Sinatra0 -

I am not saying it does not happen...but really to prove this and deny assistance because you have the belief that someone is doing this...nothing sort of legal statement admitting to this would approve of any action towards the party involved...just saying you would be walking a very tight line with this type of mandate....so tight I do not think it is possible.....0 -
Does anyone acknowledge we have social nets in place in our countries for reasons? There's a lot of blame going on in this thread and not quite as much understanding.
As for girls having children "deliberately to get the government handout", as one of "those girls" the messed up psychology involved goes wayyyy, wayyyy deeper. This is about girls who have serious problems, not girls who are looking to subsist on social assistance. It's clear that many sanction inhumane practices in order to "solve" these problems, and again I will say that thankfully those in power understand base psychology when it comes to such subjects."The opposite of a fact is falsehood, but the opposite of one profound truth may very well be another profound truth." ~ Niels Bohr
