This is the sickest thing I’ve heard in days from the Obama administration. CNS News reports that HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius told a House panel Thursday that a reduction in the number of human beings born in the United States will compensate employers and insurers for the cost of complying with the new HHS mandate that will require all health-care plans to cover sterilizations and all FDA-approved contraceptives, including those that cause abortions.
That’s right your Health and HUMAN Services Secretary wants less humans. And that’ll mean mad cash for all.
She’s talking about the cost of Obamacare going down if there’s less people but what about Social Security. Doesn’t that make is even less solvent than it already is?
And don’t think that was some kind of misstatement. This is gospel to the left. IN 2009, Nancy Pelosi said essentially the same thing.
“The family planning services reduce cost,” Pelosi said, “One of the elements of this package is assistance to the states. The states are in terrible fiscal budget crises now and part of what we do for children’s health, education and some of those elements are to help the states meet their financial needs. One of those – one of the initiatives you mentioned, the contraception, will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government.”
To many, babies are a miracle. But to many on the left, babies are a burden. Even a punishment as our President calls them.
So, according to their logic we can kill our way to prosperity.
Hey, how’s that birth dearth working out in Europe? Everything ok over there?

Goodbye future tax revenue! Leftists are morons.

You go "blink blink" and then your brain explodes because you can't imagine anyone saying anything as stupid as that.

Who is the greater ruler; the one over 1,000 citizens, or the one over 10,000?

Hey, let's impose a one-child-per-family policy, then we can really start rolling in the savings! Just look how well that is working out for the Chinese… oops… never mind.

I pray that Sebelius and Pelosi will be blessed with the vision of the eternal fate of fellow eugenists like Margaret Sanger before it's too late.

And then Jesus came upon his disciples and said, "What's this shit I've been hearing about a human sacrifice for sins!!? Who in the goddamned hell came up with that Neanderthal bullshit!!? What are we, living in the goddamn Stone Age!!!?
Blood sacrifice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How dare you embarrass me with that cave man pile of donkey shit!!!"–Jesus Christ, the Thinking Mans Gospel

And when there's not enough native born people to support all the aged and fill the tax base, they can 'import' cheap illegal alien labor. Oh. Wait. That's the real dirty little secret of the politicians on both sides turning a blind eye to illegal aliens. They know that without them we might well not be replacing our own population demographically.

Mandatory contraception — not coverage — is coming. I'll have 10 kids before they tell me I can't.

When you look down on people like the libs do, when you hold people in contempt and treat them like animals, when you can at best see people as welfare, AFDC, and medicaid liabilities, statements like Secretary Sebaceous' are jarring to hear but not all that surprising. The surprising thing is that she actually spoke from her heart, even if it was in amongst the typical bureaucratic doublespeak. Make no mistake about this: they are not acting like garden variety socialists but more like national socialists, better known as Nazis.

If these socialist/Marxists believe fewer children born because of birth control or snatching them from their mother's womb,will save money, just think what they will think about you as you get older – save SSI expenses let the old sickly ones die ASAP. Don't care for the mentally and physically challenged either – save MONEY. Are these leaders walking in the shadows of Hitler, Lenin, Stalin & Mao? Beware my brothers and sisters! God did not want any to perish, but have everlasting life.
Frankly, I see the current political trend where God is cast out of government God will do as He did th

Coerced contraception is already here. It flies under the radar but it happens. I went to a residential juvenile facility for teenage girls one day. I noticed that all the girls were asking for feminine hygiene products and asked if all their periods coincided. They said in unison "birth control". This really surprised me because these girls are locked up. Their chances of getting pregnant in there are slim to nil. Unfortunately, there are parents, teachers, doctors, etc. who promote the Pill to teenagers under the guise that they need it to regulate their periods, have fewer/lighter periods, and as protection against pregnancy. With the HHS mandate, the pressure to put girls on the Pill will only be greater. People who don't succumb will become the odds one out like families that don't vaccinate their kids.

"That's right your Health and Human Services Secretary wants less humans." I'm sure you meant fewer humans, but eugenics starts by declaring certain classes of people as less human.

Drawing a relationship between vaccinations and coerced birth control will lose you credibility in this fight. Don't go there. A very strong case for the good of society can be made for eradicating polio, rubella, measles etc. These do not require any specific behavior to contract. No such case can be made for pregnancy avoidance, even hpv. I'm not naive, tho. The HHS already is, apparently.

It's just like 1984: the mission of Ministry of Truth was, in reality, the propagation of falsehood. In our current situation in the U.S., the Department of Education is responsible for the "dumbing down" of our children, the Department of Labor for prolonging unemployment by disbursing more and more checks to the unemployed, and so forth. So, Health and Human Services' goal? Of course: it's to ensure fewer humans (and probably less health too, although these fruits have yet to be seen fully.) You've got to learn Newspeak, man. Kitt.

Agree with Blackrep. Take a cue from Soylent Green: TAX REVENUE IS PEEEEEEEEOPLE!
