Take a deep breath and see how preventive health care means lower premiums for all:

Cost of the pill for 20 years (to insurance company) about $1000 or less

Cost of one baby - prenatal care, delivery, 18 years health care, about $40,000 if they are healthy.

Cost of cervical pap smear: $20
Cost of treating cervical cancer: $80,000

Cost of breast pump $10
Cost of infant formula plus health care for infant not raised on breast milk $thousands

Plus: less abortions, healthier children, healthier women, which lowers costs for all.

PS and this is RIOT posting from my friends computer
