Valid point that a person seeking abortion, should pay for it. On the same note, a person being forced to bear child should be provided additional assistance, for as long as it takes to preserve that "life". Don't go whining and crying about Medicaid and public welfare later.
That would only be true for women who are forced to have unprotected sex, which is actually very few. For all the others, it's a choice. A choice for which THEY AND THE FATHER should bear the costs.

Not necessarily. Anytime you promote policies taking over personal choices, you better be prepared to support implications of ALL of them. No excuses.
In other words, you're deflecting from the conversation. If you are anti-choice, anti-birth control and what not, you better come prepared to support the children and adults that come out of these choices you push on the society.
Perhaps you should read my replies (all of them) and not take one out of context as to what was being discussed.
No, it's not. QE wouldn't have been needed if the greedy public employees/retirees had agreed to give up their pensions, therefore letting the stock market adjust naturally to where it should be. Stocks are overvalued now because of the successive QEs.
Yes, overvalued because of the government's welfare programs. ie: QE.

There is one discussion: Will Right Wing support additional children if abortion is outlawed?
Discuss, don't deflect.

Your gratefulness noted. But, that also means you should respect the idea that not everybody has to agree with you. And that, if we do support more children and people, we better be prepared to fund the welfare of all. There is no shortage of right wingers that will cut taxes for corporations and the rich, promote regressive taxation and cut social services. Are you grateful to such governance as well?

"Anti-choice." Why the euphemism? Just say what you mean: abortion.
Interesting question....
Do we penalize responsible people for the actions of irresponsible people?
And if so, why?
