For those of you who are totally against abortion, what are you going to do when women have babies they don't want and can't afford? Are you going to take them in? Pay for them? Comforting these babies when they wake up crying four times each night? Pro-life means respecting life from cradle to grave, after all. What's the plan after they are born? After these bans are enacted, there are consequences. This is real life. It's messy. It's not ideal. The problem won't magically solve itself just because Louisiana bans abortion. Once they are born, our taxes will go up, because the children will need CHIP, SNAP, and Food Stamps. Are you willing to pay more taxes?
The first step is the people involved should take the necessary precautions to avoid pregnancy.
The second is if they do get pregnant they should be responsible for the child.
Third if they either cannot or do not want the child the baby should be put up for adoption
Finally I am willing to pay the taxes to help when the parents cannot afford it.

That's ridiculous though. What about people that take necessary precautions and still end up pregnant by accident? Making them put the baby up for adoption is extreme.
Why would anyone other than the mother and father need to "do" anything with these children?
It's such a BS argument. "Are you going to step in and take care of these unwanted kids?" Well, are you going to step in and support that homeless guy begging on the corner? No? Then that must mean you think it should be legal for me to murder them.
the fact that people on the left are willing to help illegal immigrant children with our tax dollars ......

Our chiropractor used to be in a building with a women's clinic. Every time I went to get an adjustment, I'd have to pass that gauntlet of pinch faced protesters urging me not "Kill your baby."
One day, I printed up a paper about how I would carry this baby to term if they would agree to provide $900/month in child support for the next 18 year.
I could never get a single person to sign it.
Some suggested adoption. I said there are over 100,000 children already waiting to be adopted.
Some suggested I get on welfare. I said that wasn't an option as I don't think it is right to take money from the government when I was capable of working. It's just that I couldn't earn enough to pay for me and a kid, I was $900/month short of being able to pay for childcare, a place with an extra bedroom, car seats, extra food, clothes, etc.
I asked what they did to earn money that they could stand outside the building day after day. Was this a paid gig?
They said no and that how they earned their money was their business.
Seemed that quite a few of them were on Disability. Strange that they could stand around shrieking at people but were too disabled to work.
