- grecy 13y agoThat anyone should pay to have a baby in a Developed Country shocks me.

Just because you aren't charged doesn't mean you haven't paid for it, and probably more in taxes. Some countries prefer to pay for this stuff via taxes, others individually. And in the US free insurance is available for pregnant women who can't otherwise afford insurance, and has been for years (i.e. nothing to do with obamacare).
