In reply to the discussion: Are reproductive rights a major issue for you in the 2014 elections? [View all]... a few of the poor women who can't afford the travel expense or the procedure will get help from local orgs who have donors who give to help in these kinds of situations. BUT, many poor women don't know where to go and who to contact to get such support and what they lose is control over their life. Everything swirls out of control.
And those who can't afford BC will soon end up in this situation, as there is no shortage of men in the ready to impregnate them. Fat chance of women being strong enough to just say no to them. Biology sucks. And then, if women do just say no, you know what that leads to... rape.

It's a deal breaker issue for me. If they're against free choice he/she gets a no sale.
