ACA and birth control are only the tip of the iceberg o'crap. lumberjack_jeff Jul 2014 #30

It's not about "free birth control", jeff - it's about fair healthcare coverage for women. redqueen Jul 2014 #35

Since "fair healthcare coverage" = "free birth control (for women)"... lumberjack_jeff Jul 2014 #51

Gee all this time I thought referring to healthcare coverage as "free" was rightwing spin. redqueen Jul 2014 #63

Is "free" an improper synonym for "shall not impose any cost sharing requirements"? lumberjack_jeff Jul 2014 #80

Are you saying HL covers 100% of employee healthcare premiums, jeff? redqueen Jul 2014 #87

No, I'm saying that the coverage purchased must deliver a laundry list of freebies to the insured. lumberjack_jeff Jul 2014 #88

"the list is much longer for women and includes reproductive healthcare" redqueen Jul 2014 #89

so, Viagra is not male reproductive care? DonCoquixote Jul 2014 #68

Show me the section of the ACA where it says Viagra is "without cost sharing requirements". lumberjack_jeff Jul 2014 #81
