Sometimes crap like this really makes me want to sling Chihuahuas across a field with a trebuchet:
Medicare to Cover Drugs for ImpotenceThis is why this really pisses me off: I can't get smoking cessation products to help me stop smoking yet if I wanted to get something that would allow me to hammer six inch spike through a board with my penis - sure thing.WASHINGTON — Medicare's new prescription benefit will cover sexual performance drugs, like Viagra, in addition to medications for such ailments as high blood pressure and heart disease, program officials confirmed Monday.
The move into what some consider "lifestyle" — rather than life-saving — pharmaceuticals is being criticized by conservatives, who see it as an unnecessary frill for a program that already is projected to cost at least $400 billion over its first decade.
WTF??
Don't get me wrong: I have no problem with people getting medication(s) that help in life - even those that help men rise to the occasion.
Sorry - that one was hard to resist.

But if I'd like to quite smoking, the insurance company says hell no....even if it's something that will save them a ton of money in the future.
YES, I realize that this is Medicare we're talking about and I've got private insurance......it's the principle.
I think so.

I think all insurances should cover quit-smoking aides. I also think the elderly as well as anyone else should be covered for sexual aids, if they need them. Human sexuality is tied in with mental health. Being able to perform isn't a bonus of being human...it is natural, and if something isn't working right..help it.
The elderly sexually active adult should be hailed for being able to live full lives.
I think if anyone needs help with ANYTHING, medically, it should be made available, regardless of one's income.
And Mikey...hopefully, no one has this desire..ROFL
