Steve King actually said...

Well, Medicare prescription drugs are designed to pay for prescription drugs for people to improve their health, maintain their health, and provide life-saving medication. This is not life-saving medication. There are only two reasons for sex, and one is procreation; the other is recreation. And in either case, it's not the taxpayers' responsibility to subsidize it.
