Look, things are better now than ever on the birth control scene. Women don't have to risk their future health to take birth control today and the price, quality and variety is astounding. More people are using effective birth control than ever before and more are educated in it's use and efficacy. And there isn't a store that won't sell them to teens (unlike my day).
If the individual cannot afford either birth control or a birth - then they should abstain from vaginal intercourse with fertile males - period. Just as if you have a car but cannot afford insurance or an accident, you should not drive it. It sucks, but that's life. You don't always get to do what you really, really want to do exactly when you want to do it. The Devil Made Me Do it is not an excuse.
Where birth control has gotten better, personal responsibility has not.
Perhaps the government is trying to avoid Idiocracy from being a predictive movie. :mrgreen:
