4. Yes, abortion providers get paid to provide a service, just as those in the adoption industry get paid to provide a service. So what?

Whatever you do.....don't let the facts get in your way.

Do you work for PP? Abortions are big business and with the same women coming back over and over it's a lot of money. Better than pregnancy and birth.

That abortion is safer is debatable. I have seen studies on both sides.

Make chastity a money cow for some organization. At least it would protect the children.
Yea, as long as it isn't sex education, right?

Please tell me, do you know the average cost of an abortion compared to the average cost of carrying out a pregnancy?

And then, if adoption is involved, add all of the money the adoption providers make on the deal.

Now, which scenario is the cash cow?

I am sure you have, but only studies done by reputable, non biased agencies count.

Aren't you the person who claimed PP is deliberately handing out faulty birth control so they could do more abortions?

You didn't answer the first question if you worked for PP. If you do then you know better how much an abortion costs. Probably depends on how far along the pregnancy is.

As far as adoption it must not bring in as much money as abortion since PP doesn't do adoption services for their clients. Also, adoption should not cost the woman anything, the adopting parents pay that cost.

No it is not a big business. And who said it's the same women coming back over and over. Abortion is a small part of what PP does. It seems big because doctors are being demonized for performing abortions these days. So people go to PP. I used PP when I didn't have insurance. They did paps and everything else with almost no cost. I was so grateful for that.
