Why Republicans Are Against Women's Health

Let me rephrase this title. Republicans are not really against women's health. It's simply not a concern to them. The reason they want to eliminate any public service like this one is simply because it requires tax dollars. Yet they are constantly wanting to cut taxes and fund wars. War, and maybe lawsuits, seem to be all they want to fund. The public, in their eyes, needs to completely support itself without government. Nothing should be regulated. If they could they would eliminate all public assistance.

When you vote for politicians who only care about business that's what you are going to get. For people who have always experienced a privileged life anyone else does not matter because they are not seen so they can not be understood. Taking money from corporations to maintain their profits is all that matters regardless of the cost to the public.

What is the scariest part about this is how the general public has gone along with all of this for so long. We are the ones that can put money into politicians and elect them. Maybe it was lack of good choices to pick from, lack of caring and laziness or plain old greed and ignorance that led us to this path. But not everyone can be rich and the rich don't want to share or have you taking their place so why do we listen to them at all?

To say women have no right to sex and family planning if they do not have money is rediculous. Sex is as primitive a need as food and shelter. Sorry but it is. You won't die without it but if you are given strong desire to it your not likely to refuse. 

To make millions of unwanted babies that will later require public services is publicly irresponsible not to mention children in poverty are more likely to go to crime which goes to another Repiblican favorite tax money rapist; prisons. Finally, to make women live in even more fear of getting pregnant while not being able to prevent it is plain out evil. No one can control human nature and primitive needs. It can be educated so we know how to handle situations that arise in life better, but that too is being taken away. This does not just effect women it effects children, families and the future of the public at large and it's safety.

We need to stop the "greed now deal with society and environment problems later" philosophy. It needs to stop now. The only way is for us all as a public to stop focusing on just our own little world and finally join forces to vote, make our voices heard and fight in every legal way possible. I can only hope all out generations can finally start to care.
