Birth Control Benefits Everyone

This is very true. Birth control has allowed women to take control of their own lives -- and Obamacare has made it cheaper and easier for women to access birth control. Now we need to take the next step, and make oral contraceptives available to all women over-the-counter (without a prescription) like the College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists has recommended. These drugs are not dangerous, and making them available over-the-counter would make it even easier for all women to have access to them.

And there is another benefit not mentioned in the graphic above. Birth control (and medically-accurate education for everyone) eliminates the need for abortions. I have never understood why the anti-choice crowd also oppose birth control. It makes me think they are really anti-woman -- not anti-choice.
