    Because forcing people to PERSONALLY pay for things they don't want to amounts to slavery and should have never been legally possible. Nothing prevents insurance companies from proving the coverage, nothing prevents employers from providing the coverage, the issue is the mandate.

    Now, before you go off on the deep end of bullshit about how companies won't provide it without being forced too, I work for an insurance company and in under an hour, employers and my company had worked out benefits and made the announcement that many plans would offer travel benefits for people needing to travel to get an abortion that includes a care giver as well. So keep at it Leftist crybabies, you are running down the slope of totalitarian oligarchy at break neck speed.

    Do you even read the things you post? It wants to give them the option to opt out. Not remove it for everyone else.

    They didn't work out the benefits in under an hour. That's not how it works lol. The coding alone with that is a tremendous effort at scale.

    Unless you mean, you learned of the final befeit discussion taking an hour.

    "Google, YouTube outline plans for the US midterm elections"

    "When users search for election content on either Google or YouTube, recommendation systems are in place to highlight journalism or video content from authoritative national and local news sources such as The Wall Street Journal, Univision, PBS NewsHour and local ABC, CBS and NBC affiliates."

    Full on authoritarianism... from the LEFT... even though Biden just the other night said it was the right... projecting their tactics onto their opponents.
    And no - I'm not going to link the venn diagram showing the sick relationships and appointments between the Democrat Party and the "news organizations"... it's so fucking long, it would take forever.

    Here's an exercise... what in this list of defined authoritarian concepts might sound familiar?

    Hindrances to free and fair elections in authoritarian systems may include:

    Control of the media by the authoritarian incumbents.
    Interference with opposition campaigning.
    Electoral fraud.
    Violence against opposition.
    Large-scale spending by the state in favor of the incumbents.
    Permitting of some parties, but not others.
    Prohibitions on opposition parties, but not independent candidates.
    Allowing competition between candidates within the incumbent party, but not those who are not in the incumbent party.

    ?

    But hey... it's all just a conspiracy.. the Democrat Party actually cares about us.

    Yeah, there is really not much coding necessary in the implementation and yes, it was pretty damn quick. It's not like there needed to be any CPT codes created or anything like that. Just guidance issued, a small update on code routing and claims processors made aware. OH, and likely a signed agreement from the employers to accept addendum to the contracts.

    Incorrect, they're trying to force the court to overturn the portion of the ACA requiring those medications and services, to allow insurers to create plans that don't offer that coverage. Since employers and governments choose what plans to offer, this would have the far greater reaching effect of preventing critical care from reaching those who need and want it. All because of a handful of religious snowflakes

    Not incorrect. They are asking for opt outs. Not removing it for everyone. You even just said that exactly within your response saying I was incorrect.

    Oh right, you're just a troll.

    Opting out is simply not using the coverage, no one is putting a gun to their head in order to use services they don't want. Snowflakes are demanding special "Christian friendly" plans.
