French national health insurance picks up 100% of the tab for abortions for minors who have not obtained the consent of at least one parent. (In other cases, it would usually only cover 70%.) Over here, in contrast, the Obama administration is afraid to let girls under 17 get the morning-after pill (Plan B) without jumping through hoops. France may be nearly 90% Catholic, but they take secular government and the right to health care without regard to religiously based moral objections a lot more seriously than we do.
