We dont need more laborers that work for slave wages.
We need more owners that can actually do the work, actually do some of the work. However many customers they can satisfy is exactly how much money they earn, and that is that.
We do not need to help owners become extremely wealthy in order to create slave jobs for the rest of us. Instead more opportunities will open for more of us to become owners and our own bosses since no one or few can dominate the market place.
The average hourly wage in America is $34. Since when is $34/hr slave wages?
As long as they are the only ones capable of having children......yes they are. How would you like living on a desert island with one water source and the person that found it refused to share??
Or maybe they'd be criminals. Or moochers. Who knows? Maybe they'd be living next door to you and cooking their ethnic food and speaking another language and you'd be whining right now that they're ruining your life. Maybe they'd all vote democrat and you'd really be kicking yourself! Be careful what you wish for.
Some perhaps but not all. We are talking about citizen parents who know how to speak English and cook American food. They are the ones aborting their babies. Immigrants don't normally abort their kids so I don't know why you are bringing up languages and ethnic foods in this topic about abortion.
What is the average wage of adults who grew up as unwanted children?
Not sure how flooding the labor market is going to help wages. Aren’t you constantly complaining about the flood of cheap labor coming in from south of the border?

Where are you getting that fact from?
It's relevant because while the OP seems to think that all of these aborted embryos would have turned into fine, upstanding citizens. The reality is, a large majority of them would be born to drug-addicted mothers, would be in the foster care system, and *gasp* would not be white. Based on the OP's posts (and your posts), I would think the idea of millions more poor, non-white citizens who might be criminals, who might cook grandma's Haitian or African or Mexican recipes or who spoke Spanish, who might be on drugs, etc, would be abhorrent and terrifying to him (and probably you). Even more terrifying, they'd probably be on various types of assistance. Medicaid, food stamps, WIC, etc. And... they might be more likely to vote democrat. You should be shaking in your boots at that possibility!
Women who have abortions are largely already living in poverty, young, victims of rape/incest, sick, or otherwise disadvantaged. Could some of those embryos go on to have good, productive lives? Of course. Is it likely that most of them would? Nope.

Your racism is coming through loud and clear.
I can't imagine thinking of people the way you do. It's quite shocking.
BTW - Everyone I know who have had abortions are pretty well off financially. Just saying.
1)that would mean we have 63 million (plus whatever kids they'd go on to have) people who also need food, shelter stuff etc
2) let's be realistic- statistically most people who are getting abortions are getting them because they don't want the kids, can't take care of the kid and /or have a completely disinterested father. That's not exactly 63 million pillars of the community they'd be raising.

You of course provided no links to your assertions that if aborted babies would have been allowed to be born that the majority would have turned into bad people. Sure, I'm sure that some would have but that applies to babies born into a normal family to and it doesn't matter what race they are.
Why are you focusing on race? Where did I say anything about race except to reply to your race based comments? Why do you keep going on about ethnic foods or languages spoken? This topic is about a supposed labor shortage!
It is a known fact though that there are far more minorities on welfare percentage wise to their population numbers and it's a known fact that minorites mostly vote Democrat. Where the hell are you going with this and please stay on topic which is about a supposed labor shortage. Geezus!
