Default Epidurals, should women pay for them???

Some of you may know, this was suggested early last year, that women should (if they want one) pay for an epidural, as this cost the Trusts alot more money, the anaethetist, in general longer labour, constant CTG, and (as a result) increased intervention rates.
So what do you think??
Do you think they should be made to pay/contribute in any way?
Do you think we should be disuading women from having them??
Thoughts please, as controversial as you like, I don't mind, it makes for a good debate (mind you p's and q's though lol) x
