Are you expected to pay for your neighbor’s $5 glass of wine? Or for you to pay for your friend’s $6 pack of cigarettes? Or for you to pay for your pal’s $3 gallon of gasoline to go out honky tonkin’?
Analogously, that is exactly what is expected of taxpayers when that portion of their taxes pays for a woman’s contraception costs. That is, those women cannot afford their own contraception costs and go to Planned Parenthood.
What makes that woman’s need so special, to become my requirement to pay for her contraception? Enough of outlandish Socialism!

Close down Planned Parenthood handing out our tax money; mine and your tax money. Except for Speaker Pelosi’s political position, I am reasonably sure she can understand so simple a comparison. But then, perhaps not. Blinders on horses serve a purpose.
Arguments to the contrary can be made but are full of logical holes.
