Conservatives make it a moral issue that we need to protect life, every life is valuable, every child needs to be protected... until that child is born. Once that baby's out of the mother, their tune turns to "Eff you baby AND your mother."

How can Conservatives say w/ a straight face that every child's life is precious, and at the same time actively try to strip all the protections in place to ensure that child has the basics it needs for a healthy childhood?

Cuts to school lunch programs? Cuts to SNAP benefits? Cuts to centers that provide services to newborn & young children?

What kind of depravity does it take to force someone to bring a mouth that they can't afford into the world, then abandon that family to their own devices once you realize it costs YOU money?

Why did white people get involved in the fight for racial equality?

Everyone has the right to lead an impoverished, caste system life in America!

I see where you want to go, so I can't wait to see how you actually draw that analogy between your question & mine...

Conservatives simply demand that parents proudly stand on their own two feet and pay for the needs of their children without having to run for help from the government.

I know how literally true your point is. One time in Oklahoma, a bill tried to be passed that would allow a women, who didn't want her newborn baby, to turn it over to someone else for care without questions being asked. It was helped this would reduce the likelihood of the woman throwing her just born infant in the dumpster. But a conservative Republican opposed the bill, because it would allow women to get away with the crime of child abandonment.

Actually, it's a bunch of lies.

If the guy is gonna start a thread he should at least make his lies sound believable.

Which is exactly why abortion should remain accessible to low income women. Because it's never going to change in the way modern America functions.

What part of it is a lie?

Low income women without access to abortions produce children, who cost a lot of money. Who rely on support of the government or end up in a dumpster. It's as simple as that.
