A couple were told they faced a $200,000 (£146,500) medical bill when their baby was born prematurely in the US, despite them having travel insurance which covered her pregnancy.

The best way to lower birth rates is free contraception. The birth rate in the US is too high..

Best we can do is get rid of medicade and charge you for murder if you abort or use plan b. Once you are in debtors prison Your baby will then be transferred into a Mossad run sex trafficking and jerky processing operation
