    I am not seeing any doctors in a cursory search saying that people should not be screened for breast and colon cancer at all.

    Also, why is the job of an insurer not to save taxpayer money? Because you say so? Maybe if we made that part of the cost of owning a business, we would be able to have more social services.

    But something tells me you don’t want more social services just like you apparently want unwanted babies from people who would otherwise be able to afford birth control if their insurance took care of it.

      Where did I say that?? If you don’t stop engaging in bad faith I won’t respond.

      Do you think McDonald’s should be required to open a shipyard as a loss to save the navy money on warships? Because its simply not their job.

      Businesses already pay tax, also insurers are already required to cover screening>

      Do you think health insurance should be required to buy homes for people? Or help them pay for gas? No? So you want people to be homeless?

      What you’re advocating is a type of fascism called corporatism. You want a merger between the responsibilities and goals of the state and “private” companies. This type of merger tends to be deeply profitable for politicians and companies- see the military industrial complex.

      You’re not giving a good reason why the government just buying a condom factory and giving condoms out for free wouldn’t be more efficient, since you’re so concerned about saving money for the tax payer.

        I like how you keep suggesting that I keep putting words in your mouth and yet you keep asking me silly rhetorical questions which have nothing to do with what I said. Not at all dishonest.
