If we are a society that accepts abortion, why would that same society want to adopt?

We are not the only society that kills their off spring. Romans, Aztecs, Mayans, where are they now?

Yes, and the people that person doesn't call "freedom haters" are the ones who want to force you to buy insurance and mandate what kind of coverage you get whether you like it or not, ban you from owning firearms to protect yourself, regulate what size soft drinks you can have in movie theaters and the salt you get in restaurants, force you to pay higher taxes, deny you the ability to choose what school your children attend, force you to join a labor union, tell businesses what wages they can pay and who they can hire and promote, etc. It's absurd.

It's International:

China Adoption - International Adoption from China: One Child Policy

China | Adoption | Gender & Justice Project | Schuster Institute | Brandeis University

Background to China Adoption - One Child Policy

China government didn't want them.

I don't see what any of that has to do with interfering with people's personal decisions for the sake of placating right-wing theocrats.

They have a chance, that the one aborted didn't.

They are living, breathing, getting an education.

Life isn't fair, but at least they have a shot at making their lives better.

Again, the one aborted, never got a shot at it.

Consequences? It's okay, not expecting any one to change their minds on that one as it is instilled in us to survive it is also erratic behavior that we have developed along the way that will insure our extinction from the universe.

It always comes back to money. Always.

In every thing we do in this life time, money, money, money---TAXES.

Take that out of the equation and we might actually be happier people.
Do you understand the concept of global population? The global population doubled in the last 50 years. It will double again and again. If you're worried about maintaining the population of your particular country, you can always increase immigration.

Take God out of the equation and let a person's conscience be their guide.

Never know the life that is saved might turn out to be an atheist. Of course one would never know, because the life didn't get a change to live to pursue what ever it wanted, because some one made that choice for it.

Doesn't matter no how. As we are on the road to extinction and I doubt very seriously we will pull up and escape it.

Physical responsibility, we expect if out of our government, but not from ourselves.

Yes, because who in their right mind would emigrate to Russia??? Even the Russians are trying to get out of Russia!

Meanwhile there are thousand upon thousands of people clamoring to enter the US.

"Theocrat"! Did you go to a school for liberal atheists to learn terms like that?

The Mexican population is on the rise in the U.S (they don't believe in abortion and have many children per family unit) with fewer Caucasians bearing children than in the past.

I understand global population, however, blood line, can't migrate that.

When was the last time you saw an Aztec walking around?
