Rationing? Then Look to Women's Health
I'm ashamed to say I didn't see this one coming.
I was so caught up in my fear of death panels that it didn't occur to me that lawmakers would use health care reform to neuter Roe v. Wade.
The legislation now in the Senate would require insurers covering abortion to "segregate" federal dollars and the policyholders' dollars so that the government, in what can only be described as a parallel universe, wouldn't be paying for any abortions.
Compared with the draconian language in the House version, the Senate bill is considered a good compromise.
But I keep thinking of the scene in "It's a Wonderful Life" where Jimmy Stewart puts the building and loan's last $2 together in a drawer and orders them to procreate.
