(152,078 posts)Women want to have control over their reproductive rights. It's not a surprise at all.
We are rational, intelligent creatures who have the right to control if and when we have offspring.
This offering of free birth control should not only be available here in these United States, but all over the world. I know--fat chance!
It would solve so many problems.
Thank you for posting this, my dear 634-5789!
You might consider posting this in GD.

(17,022 posts)The amount that the State of Colorado is saving more than makes up for the expenditure of providing birth control, I'm sure. The federal government benefits too. I think we should provide abortions as well, but that would be too controversial to pass. Maybe one day. But the federal government could give lots of money to Planned Parenthood so they could open more clinics and provide a variety of birth control methods. It would be great for women as well as the rest of the taxpayers.
