Hey, Pepe, perhaps you want to be taxed more so as to fund all those abortions and pills and whatnot? Go for it. I'll take a pass, thank you.

I would have no problem with that but if you bother to read it, the article is about RWNs interfering with access to contraception - a method of family planning indistinguishable from abortion in some conservatives' "minds" but technically very different, as most degreed health professionals would assure you.

This is all NPR smokescreen Pepe, and you know it. The RWNs don't want to fund Planned Parenthood.

Planned Parenthood then goes out and prints statistics showing that 80% of their office visits aren't abortions, or something like that.

Of course as soon as someone looks into it, it's about 80% of the money that goes for abortions with these creeps.

Lying is not going to help because it's too obvious what that outfit and others like it are for.

Rot makes a valid point (for once, but hey, I'll take it).

Having said that, my point was not to conflate abortion with pills (duhhh..), but rather, to make the strictly constructivist and libertarian point that the Federal Government should not be in the business of taxing Peter in order to provide free services to Paul (or Pauline, in this case). Why the hell should I pay taxes for someone who can afford his (or her) pills or whatever? Let them pay for it if they want it.

Next thing you know, Pepe will want me to pay taxes for his sex toys, or ski trips to Chamonix, or his bottle of Chablis? I mean, where does it end? (Of course, he's decamped from these shores, so this is a rhetorical question, but the point remains.)

Tecs, while Pepe was in the US doing business, he paid for your going to math conferences.

I don't know if you noticed, but they rarely hold them in boring places. For example, Canada doesn't all look as nice as Lake Louise.
