So, it has come to my attention in the last few days that
birth control has got pretty damn expensive, like all other medical things.
And the super-rich are bitching about the change in their sofa cushions
"subsidizing" proles fucking whether
it be via private insurance(their "free-market" gawd be damned) or social programs.
At the same time, these self-proclaimed "job creators" are not, well,
CREATING THE FUCKING JOBS that would allow people to pay these
ridiculous deliberately inflated expenses out of pocket and still,
you know, EAT! So, we are supposed to either live like monks and nuns
or have six or more screaming starving miserable brats running around.
Relatively consequence-free fucking, as with every other pleasure and privilege in life,
is to be for the corporate elite ONLY, you see. I guess they must be hoarding
the world's birth control pills so they can have "so much sex they walk funny"
at occult ritual orgies with "sluts" and "prostitutes" in Long Island mansions
like in Eyes Wide Shut.
How silly of me to think back during the Bush years that their ideal
society would be like "1984". Wrong, it's Oliver Twist and David Copperfield,
and The Handmaid's Tale.

(8,994 posts)The whole point of this is to get rid of the proles. The Plutocrats are liquidating the working class, culling the herd. If they can do it quietly, by stopping them from breeding, all the better. If not, then mass starvation is an option. Failing that? Syria-style.
Occam's Razor doesn't cut this. This is organized malice. This is a mass culling.

But nobody has accused GOP policy of making sense...

(8,994 posts)The Plutocrats know the "Christian" Right will vote for them as long as they keep using the Wedge Issues to keep them in their camp. They'll string them along up until election time and then ditch them after they say their vows at the political altar; then the Christian Right will keep coming back for more.
Ever notice how pastors who preach to the Christian Right never even talks about corporate greed anymore even though Jesus had much to say about greed? Yeah, the Plutocrats have these guys indoctrinated. It's actually a well-known fact that churches don't preach against corporate greed or the Plutocracy.. this is why.

We've seen this pattern before, and it never ends well.

(9,761 posts)person who also sees what is happening! They want us dead, absolutely.
My guess is, they see the dwindling resources - oil, water, arable land - and realize, we can only support about 10% of the current population, if even that. 90% of us need to die, under the plutocrat's plan. I feel nothing but dread when I think of the next few decades and what is likely to happen.

(61,694 posts)"pulling out" is worse than almost any form of birth control. If that's what you've been using and you don't have kids, then I suspect either low count or poor motility.
If you were joking, then my apologies, but I didn't see anything to suggest you are being sarcastic

(47,953 posts)"the government is not there to provide you with birth control," Yes it is, if the people want it to do so. It's something you morons don't understand, called 'democracy'.

As they say, who benefits?
