French socialism: More $ for abortions, clinics; force hospitals to provide
France on Monday unveiled a package of reforms designed to increase access to abortion, including 100 percent reimbursement of medical costs by the state social security system….
In a statement the government said the move was “necessary to ensure all women have equal access to abortion.”
The move… was a manifesto promise by Socialist President Francois Hollande [pictured] ahead of his election victory in June.
The government also announced that it would increase the amounts clinics are allowed to charge for carrying out abortions to bring them closer into line with their real costs and to facilitate better support for patients….
As well as promising to ensure the costs of abortion are fully covered, Hollande’s election manifesto included a pledge to ensure terminations were available at every major hospital across the country.

[Editor’s note: Perhaps France’s new 75% top tier tax rate will be used to help pay for the new abortion access reforms?]

Doesn’t the demand for abortion demonstrate the failure of female emancipation?
After all, there are many ways for females to receive sexual enjoyment besides intercourse which is generally more effective and efficient at producing male enjoyment.

Denise Noe what are you talking about?
Poor children of France – they have a government bent on destroying them.
How can these people look at themselves in the mirror? Do they truly think they are helping women?

Denise, would you care to elaborate?
Tyler, pleeeeeeeeeeease don’t ask her to elaborate! Egads, haven’t you read enough of her past posts to know what she means?

Denise Noe what are you talking about?
(Denise) Just what I said. If women were truly emancipated — if they put themselves first — many more would Just Say No to the type of sex that leads to pregnancy because it is not a type of sex that is most effective at giving the FEMALE pleasure.
Good for France.
Coming to the U..S., too, I hope.
Crawl back under your bridge, little troll.
Heh. So much for the professed desire of progressives to reduce the number of abortions
Denise, are you a part-time comedian?
Denise what do you think about chastity (for men and women)?
Sorry Lrning.
Pamela, fine Christer you are.
Four more years. Can’t wait. 5 million more choices women will make in the U.S.
Steve, I am sorry, I don’t what a Christer is. Could you explain? You are not denouncing Christians are you?
Oh, look! It’s the same troll who can’t make up his mind as to who he is! Guess his “Christer” obsession just compels him to keep coming here.
Four more years. Can’t wait. 5 million more choices women will make in the U.S.
Yeah, because only choices like abortion really count, when you’re a woman. LOL
Forget those other pesky, unimportant life choices. They don’t count among the 5 million most important.
Anyone else think it’s hilarious that these people think WE are obsessed with abortion, and yet they count it as one of the most important things a woman could EVER do?? So backwards. It’s really an anti-woman attitude.
France used to be called the “eldest daughter of the Church.” What happened?
And isn’t the country in bad financial shape? How are they going to pay for this?
My guess is that they’ll begin taxing at even higher rates and also that they’ll be pushing euthanasia for the elderly. At least that seems to be how these things go…
Forgot to add: are Catholic hospitals going to be forced to provide abortions? I know that most of Europe is secular, but there are some Christians there.
@Tyler: I think chastity for men and women is good. That’s why we must revive chaperoned dating and other things to promote it.
Steve, Hey great! I love it when women make choices. Isn’t it awesome that women in the US can choose how they want to give birth, choose where to go to school, get jobs, buy their groceries, pursue a career, who to marry, etc,?! It’s so wonderful that women are so free here.
Wait, you’re surely not talking about the so-called “choice” to kill their children, right? Because that’s a choice, it’s just a devastating one… and it should be celebrated no more than the “choice” of the shooter to take out people in an Aurora, CO theater…
So…. let me try to get this all straight:
The French are trying to suicide their native culture even faster. Younger readers will see Notre Dame turned into a mosque.
Denise Noe says that sex is primarily about maximizing pleasure, and thinks women are doing it wrong.
Steve celebrates more killing, and thinks women are doing it right.
There is no place in this conversation to say what every father and mother tell their child, in so many words: ”Your dignity is in self-control and accepting responsibility for yourself. It’s not always easy, but nothing else will make you happy.”
Well said, Del!! Well said!!
So it’s gone from “Vive la France!” to “La mort la France!”
Au revoir, baby.
@Del: What I said was that only one sex act — intercourse — leads to pregnancy. This is not the best sex act for female pleasure. If women were truly emancipated and put their own pleasure first, more would be saying “no” to intercourse and abortions would dramatically decrease as a result.
This just means their Muslim populations will grow larger as their secular populations willing commit cultural suicide.
Not to put such a fine point on the obvious – but soon abortion will no longer be choice, but demanded by their Muslim overlords. Dhimmitude follows.
Their spiritual blindness is astonishing, confounding and tragic beyond words.
They have no clue of their eternal destination and the torments that await them.
Their only hope is to fall to their knees and cry out to God for mercy and repentance
Did anyone read the comments? Very chilling.

St. Thomas Aquinas says: “Praise be to Jesus.”
“Please understand how important a well-formed Christian conscience is. Such a conscience is formed according to the embrace of the Ten Commandments, which is Holy Love. The decisions a person makes throughout his life are according to his conscience. If his conscience supports the Truth of Holy Love, which is unchanging, he will live in Truth.”
“If there is a compromise in Truth, the soul will make compromised – even convoluted – decisions.”
“God does not change His Commandments to suit personalities or situations. It is the error-ridden conscience which tries to alter the Commandments.”
“God judges according to the soul’s commitment to Truth.”
Man’s law never supersedes God’s law.”
