Cost of Feminine Products

Cake • It's called the American dream because you have to be asleep to believe it.
Anyone else think that tampons, pads, cups, and all other feminine type products should be free? Or at the very least, less expensive?? It really pisses me off that I have to pay so much for something that I can't control and never wanted in the first place. 
-- And unlike other necessary medical type expenses, the cost of these products doesn't get covered under any type of insurance or under government assistance programs. 
-- But I've never heard this argument before! Am I really the only one who feels this way??
