>>There is a major point that many people miss - half of PP's "CLINIC REVENUE" comes from abortions. They have a better margin from those procedures and far less from giving out contraception. They realize it's in their best business interest to keep that model going and to limit and even ration OCC. That's my entire point.

I accept it's a credible conspiracy theory on the surface. But surely you can't just believe it without looking for simpler explanations, including those offered by the accused.

Just to be very clear: I'm not burning a flame for Planned Parenthood, just for rationality and reason.

For example: the reported figure of 50% of "clinic revenue" rather than (say) gross revenue. What would you say is the motive for this slightly unusual figuring?

Also, I asked earlier about how easy it is to get the OC from Planned Parenthood. You might like to google what HOPE is and compare the service (with whose general principles many gynecologists would agree) to the idea of over the counter contraceptive. After which perhaps you'll concur that PP may have other grounds for its stance. Also for its reference to access to the OC: PP sees cost as a barrier no matter how easy PP makes it to get a prescription. Would you consider that the ACA's subsidized cost might seem a better policy to PP than offering over the counter?

I can tell you one thing I didn't like: the suggestion of abortion quotas for clinics. If validated, that's a scandal.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
