"The Colorado Family Planning Initiative spent comparatively small sums making IUDs and other long-term birth control methods (such as implants and injections) available to women, through a "no wrong door" approach that let women start their journey through a variety of agencies, and included after-school and other counseling services, and also provided birth control to women on maternity wards before they went home with their babies.

The results were amazing: teen births and abortions dropped by nearly 50%, and the birth-rate among teens who were already mothers fell by 58%; there were also dramatic reductions in high-risk births.

For ever dollar spent on the initiative, the state saved $5.85 over the next three years in reduced family benefits and assistance payments.

The program is so successful that many states are copying it, including Oregon, Washington and Delaware..."

We all would probably be surprised how much money that would save
and
For starters it's already been proven that access to free birth control
has astounding effects on teen birth rates

:nod:

Liberals and Conservatives both win in that scenario ^

I'm cool with free birth control for all

We have way too goddamn many people

I don't like elective late term abortion - I figure easy access to bc would cut down on that

I'm good with it.

I'm also good with providing free birth control for countries such as Pakistan, Iran, Iraq, etc.
