If someone wants birth control or any other routine, elective medicine or procedure,

What you can't seem to get into your pointy little head is that routine or preventative care is cost effective in the long run.
If you prevent someone from developing an illness, or diagnose an illness early on, it costs far less than treating the illness later on.
And riddle me this Kitten, which is cheaper.......paying for contraception, or paying for pre-natal care, labor and delivery?
