    My question would be… Why am I subsidizing insurance for you that I don’t need?.That is not to say health insurance in general but rather specialized insurance she needs (prenatal and pediatric) when I do not need to be in that insurance pool at all. Why is my policy under Obamacare FORCED to include these features with their potential cost when I will NEVER use them?.Also, if as the Left likes to shout “It’s a woman’s right to choose” and her decision alone on abortion (ie to have or not have the child) then why do men have to pay child support?

    I will consider you intelligent. And I understand your post, I believe, but I don’t think it addresses the question.

    The “disconnect” is the constant repetition of the idea that government is usually bad, and that Republicans want to relieve you of government interference.

    Here is what appears to be the disconnect to me: at the end of that phrase, it seems that they add “unless you’re pregnant or gay. And then I have every right to tell you what is right and wrong, and I have every right to force my views on you.”

    So, it seems that Republicans are willing to let pollution, destruction of habitat, and income disparity rise to historic heights under the guise of “allowing business to make a profit”, yet they want to micromanage people’s personal lives.

    There is the apparent disconnect. Does that help?

    you anti-Life-ers seem to have missed the post-1973 start-ups of Christian and Conservative programs and facilities for unwed mothers and adoption agencies and live-in help to support mother and baby if the mother chooses to keep her child. This was private sector helps for giving women and girls a real CHOICE and be helped to get education and training for jobs to take care of themselves and their children.-It is a FACT and any honest investigator can find the proof if they only put aside their false assumptions and partisan hate for those who support God’s gift of LIFE.

    Apparently they are not able to explain it because they don’t see it as a disconnect. They think government should enforce their sense of morality but, they don’t want to pay for it.
