Andrew Sullivan: How Obama Set a Contraception Trap for the Right

[Hombre]

Quote from Mercor:

None of the Republicans are saying they would ban contraception , they only want to keep the Government from entering the market.

I see this policy as a threat to contraception. Obama is taking a commercial product and putting the control of its distribution under Government department control.
With one person making one rule the Government can force anyone to offer these products and also force anyone to pay for them.

This is why the founders avoided concentrating this type of power in one branch of government.

This creates a model of rule where in the future for whatever reason one rule could be changed to ban all contraception.

This is a bad precedent.

i agree with you but candidates and GOP commentators are talking about freedom of religion, their stance on abortion and rights of catholic hospitals etc.
None of them i've heard said anything about keeping government out of the market. They are handling it stupidly, imo.

Quote from Free Thinker:

i thought it was reasonable. 1000 a week plus tax for a 2500 sq ft house right on the water. i looked up the house info on zillow and that house sold for 900k in 2006. it had a heated pool a covered lani and a boat dock.

Very nice, cheap, thanks.
