Correct. You can already get condoms etc for free if you live in a modern country, no reason you shouldn't be able to for a natural bodily function.

VanananaHeyHey 11/30/20 2:23:25 PM #21: |
Period products could be made available by simply having an extra SKU coupon by the register that any cashier could swipe when a package of tampons, pads or a cup came across the belt, same way they do for "2-for-1" and "Bananas - Large Bunch."
If you want them free for everyone, then anyone presenting the product gets a SKU swipe. If you only want the desperate, pleading poor to get them for free, instruct the cashier to swipe only if they show the Official EBT or Whatever Mark of Assistance Cashcard or however government benefits are applied in whatever country. And toilet paper should be the same way. Whoever said "cars" has never heard of public transit (which should exist, funded, from everyone's paychecks) and whoever said "healthcare" has never heard of Democrats. --- Please, call me Vanai.

How do you prevent bad people from taking all the stock and reselling it?if people know they can get it for free, it will presumably be pretty difficult to sell How do you allow a woman to get more than usual if she needs it?uh... let her ask for more? How do you get companies to keep spending money to manufacture them if there's no profithave them manufactured by the state and paid by taxes and how do you ensure quality?there's no reason to believe the quality would be any less under such a scenario lol dude what kind of questions are these even --- peanut butter and dick ...

i never said those other things werent more essential. i am allowed to want and discuss more than one thing at one time okay, so you think all menstruation products should be "free". what does this mean? does this mean we continue to have the same products / brands, but the price is always $0.00 at the store? if so, who pays the companies who produced the product and the stores that stocked and sold it? what about different quality between brands / products? how do you determine who gets what? --- Playing: Hades; Dead Cells; Remnant: From the Ashes; Streets of Rage 4; You see it your way, I'll see it mine and I'll be fine ...

Why? If its poor people being unable to afford them, then we need better care packages for them including all possible hygiene products. Just the singular product isnt going to help them much. If they cannot afford something that cheap, then they are going so poor they probably cant afford anything else either.
