- [deleted] 1
  - You're second paragraph (sentence?) is true, and as it should be, but by the same token you can't force a church to perform them. - Stephen Feb 10, 12:11
- I don't want to read that, for fear of being stupefied. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 10, 11:41
- wait. free coverage? really? what? -- nm - the amanda nones Feb 10, 11:39 19
  - I thought that was part of the health care law that went into effect back in August. - mara Feb 10, 11:45 1
    - No, sorry, it will start this August. -- nm - mara Feb 10, 11:46
  - Free as in "we'll cover your contraceptives as part of your plan without increasing the cost to you" but the contraceptives will still probably have - TWuG Feb 10, 11:42 13
    - No co-pays. -- (link) - mara Feb 10, 11:46
    - yeahhhh how is this more okay? -- nm - the amanda nones Feb 10, 11:43 11
      - You get the same coverage as everyone else at no added cost to you. Or your institution. -- nm - TWuG Feb 10, 11:52
      - contraceptives are not included in the employer-sponsored health coverage. - TFox Feb 10, 11:46 9
        
        I thought it was actually a really elegant work around. Yes, church, you don't have to pay for it if it offends your religion. But individuals still - pmb Feb 10, 11:51 8
        
        wouldn't that mean that atheists will end up having to pay a little more to cover the added overhead and that is a tactic support of their beliefs? - zeitgeist Feb 10, 12:03 2
        
        copays zeitgeist pays. -- nm - TFox Feb 10, 12:07 1
        
        Sorry, tourette's = not covered -- nm - Blue Atheist Feb 10, 12:08
        
        but that means the world still isn't the way it should be! -- nm - the church Feb 10, 11:56
        
        it is. it's on the backs of the insurers which no one will mind, but the insurers also realize that from a cost perspective this is a non-factor. - TFox Feb 10, 11:52 3
        
        Insurers actually save money by preventing pregnancies. -- nm - mara Feb 10, 11:56 1
        
        that's a less obvious calculation than it seems on its face, but yes in principle. -- nm - TFox Feb 10, 11:58
        
        also, birth control pills are cheaper than babies. -- nm - Reagen Feb 10, 11:56
  - for generic birth control pills, for this miniscule sliver of insureds, spread over their pool of insured people? - TFox Feb 10, 11:42

- "I will donate $10 for every friend of Janet's who like's the following statement: Janet is being way too pushy about fundraising for her cancer walk. -- nm - TFox Feb 10, 11:56
- Depends. Does the Avon Walk route go near a Planned Parenthood? - Dr.Vermin Feb 10, 11:55
- " it's a good thing you're a friend because the hard sells usually turns me away even from a cause as good as this" -- nm - dogbert Feb 10, 11:52
- it's a good cause, so i might still donate, but yeah, that's WAY too pushy. donating to a friend is *optional* always. -- nm - Andie Feb 10, 11:49
- Donate 10% to her cause of what you had planned to donate. And the other 90% to a different cancer charity. -- nm - Loyola Feb 10, 11:49
- You should hear some stories by ebay sellers and a wedding photog - zeitgeist Feb 10, 11:47 1
  - the point was, some folks get so excited about their own little world, expect instand gratification in most things -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 10, 11:51
- Whatever you do, don't defriend her. *looks at other FB story on this board* -- nm - TWuG Feb 10, 11:38

- "Why the hard sell, Janet?" -- nm - TFox Feb 10, 11:35
- pretty rude of her imo -- nm - Beaker Feb 10, 11:33
- That's particularly annoying on her part. I don't think I shilled TT that hard when I was doing my charity rides :) -- nm - oblique Feb 10, 11:33 1
  - and look where that got you, I for one didn't give you a cent. - dogbert Feb 10, 11:41
