So 40% of Georgetown coeds paying $60K/yr are having a hard time paying $9/mo for BC pills? Perhaps they should teach some personal finance classes there?

Must follow...
I bet you she has a cell phone, internet, cable tv, computer, car, etc etc etc When I was in college I had NONE of that! I would think she could go and mow lawns, wash windows, wait tables.... like we all did.
I searched for “Free Condoms Washington DC” and found 160 places to get them just from the Department of Health!

I’m sure there are plenty of other places to get them too.
$9/mo for BC pills AND free condoms on every block... I could write pages on what’s wrong with this story, but I’m most interested in the politics behind the “$3000 a year to have safe sex” idea. Clearly you can have safe sex for free thanks to the DOH. And BC pills for $100 a year to boot. The people behind this political grandstanding need a comeuppance - this story is a symbol for waste and inefficiency in the health care system.
