http://vitals.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/08/01/13069652-free-birth-control-under-health-law-starts-today?lite
::)
Starting Wednesday, millions of American women will no longer pay for birth control pills, Pap smears or mammograms -- not even a co-pay. Women also have the right to free breast-feeding support, supplies for pregnancy-related diabetes, also known as gestational diabetes, and even screening for domestic violence.
It's not clear how many women will take advantage of the new policy, but the US Health and Human Services Department estimates that 47 million women, ages 15 to 64, have private health insurance plans that will be affected. The 2010 health reform law requires that policies provided by private health insurance companies pay for a list of women’s health preventive services, starting August 1.
However, there may be a delay in services for many women. The law applies to new policies -- women with existing coverage may have to wait for their policies to renew for the requirements to kick in, which could take months. Many health insurers already provide this coverage.
The new rules are based on guidelines from the independent, non-partisan Institute of Medicine, which said paying for these services will save money and lives down the road.
“We want healthy women to have healthy babies,” said Dr. Jennifer Howse, president of the March of Dimes Foundation, a charity that works to prevent birth defects. “Receiving regular medical care greatly increases the likelihood that important messages can be delivered to pregnant women around issues such as nutrition and tobacco cessation, and provides opportunities to detect potentially dangerous conditions like gestational diabetes or high blood pressure.”
There are a few exceptions. Purely religious employers don’t have to provide the services to employees if they object. Related groups, such as Catholic-affiliated universities, have objected so the Obama administration offered what it called an accommodation, forcing the insurance companies themselves to pay for the coverage. But the religious associations still object, as do Republicans in Congress. They have promised to repeal the whole law if they win enough seats in the November election.
On Friday, a federal judge in Colorado ruled that a Catholic-owned heating and air conditioning company in Denver did not have to provide contraception coverage for its workers.
Americans also get refunds starting today from health insurance companies that spent too much on administrative expenses. The law requires health insurance companies to spend at least 80 percent of premiums on actual medical care and not on salaries, office rental and other overheads.
While opponents continue efforts to repeal the health care law, HHS secretary Kathleen Sebelius cheered the the promise of free screening for women's health services.
"For too long insurance companies have stacked the deck against women, forcing us to pay more for coverage that didn't meet our needs,” Sebelius said Tuesday.

Minority groups should definitely take advantage of this. I'd even go as far to suggest mailing birth control to every minority group residence, in addition to lacing kool-aid, malt liquor, grape drink, and other shit that the blacks and b.eaners eat on the regular with strong birth control or even sterilization agents.

Nothing is Free. This Free shit comes out fo the tax money most of us pay. The funny thing is those that will take advantage of this are the oens that don't pay shit.

Sure, but in the long run this will save tax payers money by preventing conception of more degenerate scum. I think it's a wise investment.

Perhaps the social theories of the nazis including eugenics and concepts of mass sterilizations should be revisited

Lmao

In the end, the taxpayers will be screwed one way or another. There will ALWAYS be something you don't want or agree with. You cannot appease every single American. Instead of getting frustrated and arguing on GB about it, I choose to let it slide off my shoulder. If I really want to get pissed and make a stink out of it, Id rather take action.
-
This would be great if the people who shouldn't be having babies would use it, but anyone with a brain knows that won't happen.
-
lol, as if it was going to stop beaners and nig.g.ers from breeding like cockroaches... in fact it will just decrease furthermore the natality of white people, as only white girls are concerned by this directly. Just what we needed, billions more third worlders and even less educated, contributing white people.

Good thing you're a fucking homosexual. Just don't get crazy ideas like adoption or artificial insemination. We really don't need more of you in the world.

this^^^^
Same with what psychopath said.
Birthing unwanted children and supporting them with the prison/foster/schooling/policing/charity systems over-burdens the US. Better they not be born at all and save money.

How about free trt or hrt for me. Always about the fucken women.

Nothing is Free. This Free shit comes out fo the tax money most of us pay. The funny thing is those that will take advantage of this are the oens that don't pay shit.
Yet in spite of this free service, and planned parenthood and other community based clinics providing bc, there will probably be very little decline in births for those that cannot afford kids in the 1st place

Hold on, Coach. The EMTs are on the way.

EugenicsFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaJump to: navigation, search
"Eugenics is the self-direction of human evolution": Logo from the Second International Eugenics Conference, 1921, depicting Eugenics as a tree which unites a variety of different fields.[1]Eugenics is the "applied science or the bio-social movement which advocates the use of practices aimed at improving the genetic composition of a population", usually referring to the manipulation of human populations.[2][3] The origins of the concept of eugenics began with certain interpretations of Mendelian inheritance, and the theories of August Weismann.[4]
Eugenics was widely popular in the early decades of the 20th century.[5] The First International Congress of Eugenics in 1912 was supported by many prominent persons, including: its president Leonard Darwin, the son of Charles Darwin; honorary vice-president Winston Churchill, then First Lord of the Admiralty and future Prime Minister of the United Kingdom; Auguste Forel, famous Swiss pathologist; Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone; among others.[6]
Eugenics was a controversial concept even shortly after its creation.[7] The first major challenge to conventional eugenics based upon genetic inheritance, was made in 1915 by Thomas Hunt Morgan, who demonstrated the event of genetic mutation occurring outside of inheritance involving the discovery of the birth of a fruit fly with white eyes from a family and ancestry of the red-eyed Drosophila melanogaster species of fruit fly.[8] Morgan claimed that this demonstrated that major genetic changes occurred outside of inheritance and that the concept of eugenics based upon genetic inheritance was severely flawed.[8]
By the mid-20th century eugenics had fallen into disfavor, having become associated with Nazi Germany. This country's approach to genetics and eugenics was focused on Eugen Fischer's concept of phenogenetics[9] and the Nazi twin study methods of Fischer and Otmar Freiherr von Verschuer. Both the public and some elements of the scientific community have associated eugenics with Nazi abuses, such as enforced "racial hygiene", human experimentation, and the extermination of "undesired" population groups. However, developments in genetic, genomic, and reproductive technologies at the end of the 20th century have raised many new questions and concerns about the meaning of eugenics and its ethical and moral status in the modern era, effectively creating a resurgence of interest in eugenics.[citation needed]

What is also interesting are the people who funded hitlers eugenics
program and the scientists who introduce him to it. There are some prominant families on that list. Not to mention the family that made an empire from selling the nazis the steel to build a track to ouchvitz.
