Duh - if they are paying for their insurance, it has not saved them anything.

I thought gay marriage would do that.

Almost, the (un)affordable care act has saved/cost women the difference between what they paid through the act for birth control and what they would have spent on birth control with their old plans or on self paid. This number can of course be positive or negative.

A further complication is whether health care is a net subsidy to women or men. Women probably use health care more than men, but then they live longer on average so it would take a careful study to find a good answer. And there are probably addition complications I have not listed.

Disagree, a little. If they get "subsidies", both male and female taxpayers pay for those. So, it's saved them (as women) some, because some of it, for those who are subsidized, is paid by men.

I've been noticing how much of the Dem programs are robbing Peter to pay Paul. The benefits are promoted and publicized as if they are just and universal; actually, they are an electorally focused bribe. Everyone pays.
