    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Paul Waldman

    This tweet is halfway to grasping that forms of compensation are fungible, & your employer can also pay you with money, which you can exchange for things of your choice such as contraceptives without even telling your boss where you spent it.https://twitter.com/paulwaldman1/status/1280957781185572869 …

    Dan McLaughlin added,

    And please, can we stop saying this involved "free" contraception. It's not free. You pay for it. Your health coverage is compensation for your labor. It's not a gift that your employer bestows on you out of the goodness of his heart.

        Except that doesn’t work out for the employee unless the employer *does* pay to buy your own contraception. Otherwise you, the woman who relies upon contraception, are just a damaged party.

        You seem to be zero percent of the way towards grasping why that is an entirely unrealistic real world proposition. https://www.ajmc.com/newsroom/healthcare-costs-increased-twice-as-fast--over-last-decade …

        Your tweet is 60% of the way there to understanding the bizarre tax treatment of health insurance means these choices are tied unnecessarily to your job.

        Which is a step further to the (correct) conclusion that the rule was not put there to make contraception available, but to *force* those who believe it wrong to have to pay for it. The real purpose was specifically to violate their rights gratuitously.

        So are employers who pay their workers “complicit” if their employees use the money to buy contraceptives? How is that different from the Little Sisters argument?
