There will be some rebellion initially, but if couched as a health care practice, where co-pays are the norm, it could actually settle in.

Some political thought: if you want more of something, you subsidize it. 
If you want less of something, you tax it. 
Anyone know of a way to subsidize breastfeeding and tax formula? ...meaning more than just standard sales tax on formula.

Currently, formula is subsidized by the US govt with our tax money. 
If there were some way to tax breastfeeding, do you think Congress would do it? Scary thought, that.
