Instead of a government mandated health care coverage that business has to pay, how about a government mandated health care coverage that the "institution that dictates 'no birth control use'" has to pay........

I know, radical idea...but eventually reality has to prevail. Currently we have people suing companies that make french fries, etc, and those french fries make people too fat...

We all know that business has to make a profit, and if it does not...it looks at expenses, and hires people from other countries because the product/service can be made cheaper there.

Health care has to be more affordable, and people have to make choices....I believe personally that people should be penalized for not having basic health care, unless their is a dire reason they can not. 3 TV's in a house, 2 cars in the driveway, and every known toy that Toys R US makes in the house, is not a reason for not buying medical insurance.

What happened to the old fashioned idea that one buys insurance, OR pays the medical bills if something comes up unexpectedly.

Choices....choices....

I fear a government managed solution to minimal health care, I hope we can force all business to somehow or another provide minimal preventative care coverage.
