From Mark Frauenfelder at BoingBoing: Noted speed freak, serial-killer fangirl, and Tea Party hero Ayn Rand was also a kleptoparasite, sneakily gobbling up taxpayer funds under an assumed name to pay for her medical treatments after she got lung cancer. An interview with Evva Pryror, a social worker and consultant to Miss Rand's law firm of Ernst, Cane, Gitlin and Winick verified that on Miss Rand's behalf she secured Rand's Social Security and Medicare payments which Ayn received under the name of Ann O'Connor (husband Frank O'Connor). As Pryor said, "Doctors cost a lot more money than books earn and she could be totally wiped out" without the aid of these two government programs. Ayn took the bail out even though Ayn "despised government interference and felt that people should and could live independently... She didn't feel that an individual should take help."

Votes (first and foremost).... 2). People want to feel good about themselves so they take your money to do it. 3). There are people who do need "SOME" help, not the over amount that's being given to them. 4). Some people on this earth have made their bed and don't want to sleep in it, hence casting their votes for handouts.... There are more reasons than this but I'm not gonna go into them because it's useless trying to tell some people the truth.... If people would just grow up most of these entitlements could go away, but from the looks and sounds of it it aint gonna happen anytime soon....

Don't be a smartass, Ma; I asked you what your gray approach to politics is as opposed to that which you criticized, black & white. You either have an answer or you're just blowing smoke. Stone? Your view is certainly extreme and of course neither reasonable nor probable. Some times pregnancy is truly a mistake. My own idea on abortion is that the first one is free unless the father is known and he pays) and without condemnation. A second abortion is costly and results in automatic sterilization of the mother. The father in the second abortion is required to pay. Anyone fined for an abortion as the father would be above who reoffends is castrated. Anyone executing an abortion provider must adopt all future children born who would have been serviced by said abortion provider. Until the RC Church permits birth control we're stuck. Until the government stops paying for abortions we're stuck. Just my opinion. harrowup  posted on  2011-04-17   14:09:46 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #18. To: harrowup (#17) Stone?

To: harrowup (#17) Until the RC Church permits birth control we're stuck. I've seen studies in the past that say if people have easier access to birth control methods, thats it causes abortion rates to go up..... I've also seen just the opposite...... Here is an excerpt from a thread I posted 8 days ago: Access to contraception does NOT reduce abortion rates: Anyone who finds that statement shocking has not been paying attention. A study published earlier this year found that a 63 percent increase in the use of contraceptives in Spain over a ten-year period was accompanied by a 108 percent increase in the rate of elective abortions.[8] This counter-intuitive reality has also been documented in peer-reviewed journals in the U.S. and Western Europe. Studies by Peter Arcidiacono in the U.S., K. Edgardh in Sweden, and David Paton and Sourafel Girma as well as M. Wiggins et al. in the U.K., are reviewed in a USCCB fact sheet "Greater Access to Contraception Does Not Reduce Abortions." Now on the other hand: It appears that offering free contraception to young women is an effective way to cut the abortion rate. In 2002, free hormone-based birth control was offered to Norwegian women ages 16 to 19, and abortion rates declined dramatically. When the one-year project was over, young women were offered reduced-rate contraception, and the number of abortions began to climb again. If offering free contraception works in Norway, it seems entirely possible that it could work in other places around the world. There appears to be workable solution to unintended pregnancies and abortions. Cities hand out free needles to drug users, why not contraception? So which one is right??????? Who the hell knows?????

To: CZ82, A K A Stone (#19) So which one is right??????? Who the hell knows????? There has always been a racial component to abortion that is both sad and ugly. I don't know how to stop it without resorting to a harsh punishment short of death that prevents further pro-creation. Whether contraception works or not I don't know either as long as people either look the other way and don't consider the social consequences of giving birth to an unwanted, unloved baby who will suffer for the sins of the father.

According to one young man, "I don't think you should prepare to have sex, 'cause if you carry a condom it's like you are expecting to have sex, so yeah, I don't think you should carry one." The kids say that boys who carry condoms are seen as "promiscuous" and girls who do this are seen as "sluts."
