Chelsea Clinton claims legalized abortion has enabled women to contribute $3.5 trillion to economy
However, had the 50 million people who were aborted grown up and earned an average of only $ 30,000 per year they would have contributed 1,500 TRILLION to the economy. EVERY YEAR. PLUS, Social Security would not be in the state it's in.
Figures don't lie, but liars figure.
You are only looking at one side of the coin.
A woman whose education is derailed by an unwanted pregnancy is more likely to enter the workforce in a low paying dead end job rather than a decent paying career type job.....and more likely to be caught up in a cycle of poverty that can be very hard to break.
And, more women and children thrown into poverty will substantially increase the costs of social services, welfare, food stamps, housing, medicaid, etc.
Also, children who are viewed as an unwanted burden are more likely to become a drain on society rather than an asset.
I think Chelsea Clinton is right and in my opinion it boils down to this: A society built on children who are loved and wanted is more desirable than a society built on children who are unwanted, neglected and viewed as burdens.
Being a loving and devoted parent is not something you can force on someone.
As it is now our child welfare system, foster care and social workers, are stressed to the limit and there is an abundance of abused and neglected children who will never receive the help they need.
Why in the world would anyone think removing choice and forcing children on unwilling parents is a good idea that would result in a positive net outcome?

If that was the case, then people wouldn't be worried about millions of immigrants coming into the country and "Taking Yer Jerbs!" Nice try. I didn't know we had such a plethora of jobs available for 50 MILLION people...
Seems to me that in one breath you are saying our financial woes from a national standpoint would be miraculously solved if we had millions more workers... but in the next breath, I'm sure you'd be talking about too many "welfare mamas."

So, which is it?
In one breath you guys support illiterate illegal immigrants and supporting their children then say aborting actual American's babies is just fine because we can't support all of them. Mental midget thinking.
Killed more Black Americans in 1 year than the KKK killed in 100 years.
13% of the population of the USA and declining every week.
Democrats will keep them from having a voice, one way or they other.
The next Obama was aborted last Tuesday.
Ok then fund planned parenthood and easily available birth control.
