LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Affordable Pill not a priority
By Michael O'Malley | Mar. 26, 2008I wish to contend several points that Laura Moore raised Monday in her letter about affordable birth control. First, I understand that a student may have to live from paycheck to paycheck. However, if at the end of her budget calculation (and an actual budget was certainly implied in the letter) she finds that such dire straits have arisen that a choice must be made between dispensing money to either health care or utilities, I would suggest she revises her budget to exclude several trips for sushi. I don't mean to stereotype, but the validity of such an ultimatum is difficult to believe and there are many ways to free up money in the budget: Ride a bike, don't eat out, grow your own vegetables, get your movies from the library, etc.
