Boy, let the government get involved and things go down the slippery slope faster than Michael Mooreon getting a hold of Castro's jockstrap and taking a big sniff for communism. The proponents of FREE health care too stupid to realize that there is NO such thing as a FREE LUNCH. SOMEONE has to pay, somewhere. Take the below story from Fox News on Sunday.
ATTN: It is THIS kind of stupidity that is going to kill people who use "government" funded rubbers that break (OOPS!) in use. AIDS gets spread as do STD's, and health costs go UP! OR, this is a huge "mistake" of the democrats who are hoping that this will "breed" a new generation of welfare recipients eager to suck the government teat.
FOX:
Residents in the nation's capital say the condoms being handed out have a serious problem. As many as 70,000 condoms given away in a citywide campaign to reduce HIV and AIDS were returned this week by community groups. Another 100,000 condoms were returned in early September because of complaints their paper packaging can be easily damaged and could make the condoms ineffective. City health officials agreed that complaints about the packaging were damaging to their citywide distribution campaign, but they have insisted the condoms were safe. They said this week they will distribute brand-name substitutes. Since the problems were publicized, the city's condom manufacturer offered to replace all remaining supplies with Trojan, Lifestyles and other products found on drugstore shelves.
It's called the FREE MARKET or FOR PROFIT manufacturing! IT WORKS!
A spokeswoman for Mayor Adrian Fenty said the city has received 125,000 of the new condoms and 400,000 more are expected in the next two weeks.
Gee, Mayor, thanks for wasting a few hundred THOUSAND tax dollars for free rubbers. What's the matter, people can't pay for their OWN like they USED TO?
BTW, are YOU planning on giving out free bonuses as well? (See story on EX DC mayor Anthony Williams paying off cronies.)
