Explain to me why "Plan B" should not be sold like candycorn from vending machines
So our government has taken a long-ass time to approve a fantastic contraceptive for over-the-counter sale. (E.G. since 1999).
Just recently, the FDA said it would allow the manufacturer to market it to people over 18.
Meanwhile, lots of unwanted pregnancies have not been stopped. Hoodlums who would have been prevented if this was available in 1999 will be robbing us in 2010 because our government dragged its feet.
Seriously, give me some good reasons why morning-after pills with few side effects should not be sold like candy. Especially to minors. I mean, what is this need for people to control their daughters' bodies? It borders on pedophilia.
At the very least, "Plan B" should cost $5 from the same vending machines in womens' rest rooms that sell tampons.
