Superb Opinion

  • I would prefer something like UBI for welfare so that individuals can spend that money however they need it. I understand the argument that some people would spend it on alcohol and drugs but people already do that by trading food stamps in the underground economy. I cannot sympathize so much with those people.

    Yet I sympathize with people who are making a sincere effort to actually improve their lives while having to go through a maze of convoluted welfare programs and often becoming hopelessly dependent on them. In those cases, I think they can decide what they need and should spend that money on far better than a convoluted bureaucracy which takes a massive chunk of the tax dollars and spends it on middlemen as opposed to the people that money was intended to aid.

  • No. That's idiotic. They cost resources to make, and technically women do not need them to survive. Toilet paper and bars of soap aren't free, nor do any men out there ever complain about them "being free," so why the hell should women's period products be free? You could really just use re-wearable cloth pads, if you wanted to save money. The entitlement of modern women is f*cking INSANE!

  • Who doesn’t want free stuff? But reality is there’s no such thing as free, someone has to bear the cost. In this case it would be the taxpayers. Federal, state, county and municipal tax authorities already have their hands too deep in our pockets here in the US as it is. I’d be willing to re-think my position if and when governments actually made significant cuts in its own spending to sustain themselves. Until then I say no.

  • Yes!!

    • Since I'm sure you are going to get replies arguing this is just another handout, let me pose this scenario. A girl can't afford basic sanitary products. She has to choose between that and food. As a result, she gets a UTI. She has to go to the doctor. She can't afford that. The government or health clinic foots that bill. Then it is passed to the taxpayers or the cost of services at the health clinic go up. Which do you think costs more? A doctors visit that goes unpaid and then increases costs to others or a box of tampons for poorer women?

  • Do you think toilet paper should be free to all men?

  • There are actually quite a few schemes in the UK for those in need to be able to get free sanitary products, from government schemes for young people in education, to supermarkets that provide them to those who can't afford them. There is also a UK charity called Act! onaid that runs a global scheme called Period Poverty mainly to provide to poorer countries.
