Sleight Of Hand...

On the most recent coverage of the Great Contraception Debacle of 2012:

You must think we're idiots. It's masterful what the Left and the media have done... it really is. We're not stupid, though. (Well, some of us undoubtedly are.)

It's not ABOUT whether or not a woman wants to use contraception, or whether or not a woman wants to, um, engage in coitus three times a day. It's about whether or not the taxpayer should have to PAY for her to use contraception.

I see it like this: I don't have ovaries. I don't have a uterus. So why do I have to pay for people that want to suppress their reproductive process? Personally, I'm of the opinion that this insidious attempt of government to seize a citizen's personal prerogative on contraception is a violation of the Equal Protection Clause. Think about it: why does this benefit apply to women, and not men? Are rubbers condoms going to be provided, as well? $1,000 worth of rubbers, per year?

What if you want to double-bag it, for extra safety?

See what I'm getting to? Once you go down the rabbit hole, it never ends. It just gets more and more ridiculous, and more and more expensive. Isn't $16 trillion enough of a debt to incur and subjugate our sons, daughters, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren? Assuming we'll have any? (We are talking about the biggest expansion of government in the realm of reproduction in US history, here.)

Let me leave you with this: if the government keeps preventing future citizens, then who will pay the taxes? Mark Steyn wrote a book called America Alone: The End of the World As We Know It that was a case study in exactly what happens when a society falls off of the Socialism Cliff.
