Why the fuck would your employer be forced to buy you contraception!? My God! America, what the fuck is wrong with you?


Maternity leave maybe? It costs companies money to replace workers. The US does a great job of controlling birthrates. If people keep working it pumps more money through the economy. If you look at it based on our GDP and worker output for a industrialized nation the US works itself like race horses. One horse blows out their leg, replace them for good.


Yet another reason to thank the Lord for being European. Also makes you wonder how can some European countries manage to keep a human face and still get more GDP per capita than US.


Higher taxes to balance out less work hours in the day. Americans keep most of their money but get less government funded benefits and have to pay for medical coverage themselves instead of it being universal. Obama is attempting to change that though. Certain European countries have government safeguards just incase maternity leave is needed working in tandem with your job to fund the leave.In America this doesn't exist.
