Birth Control Legislation
Effective August 2012, all health plans must cover birth control and preventative screenings for women. The conservatives are against this because, well, because liberals support the idea. Now I may have voiced my opinions on reproduction in the past. I know. I never speak my mind. Anyway, my argument has been that people are having children, but not raising them properly.

My Solutions

To be fair, I have decided to write this post which will contain my solutions for the problems I see, phrased in a positive light. This is a work in progress. Many of these ideas might not work. Most will. Enjoy.

The Entertainment Industry is Doomed
The Centers for Disease Control released a report today on the prevalence of cigarette smoking in movies, which they naturally say is too often. According to the CDC’s report, nearly half of all the popular movies released in 2009 contained some sort of “tobacco imagery,” including 54 percent of the films that were rated PG-13.

Minirant: Silly Poll
So the USA Today had a poll this morning. “Percentage of adults saying it’s ‘very likely’ they’d give CPR to the following: Family Member – 84% Friend – 74% Co-worker – 61% Boss – 58% Stranger – 45% Cat/Dog – 28%”
