    More babies on the welfare rolls.

    The Congressional deficit hawks should love that.

    See above. If they want to operate on private foundation contributions, fine. The money could go to the local public health clinics and avoid duplicate agency overhead.

    Garsh, it might lead to lower immigration rates. Americans first.

    I said "most women of child birthing age" with the hope that most folks would interpret that to mean "more than 50% of women who are of child birthing age."

    In other words, you start being able to have children at ~12, but you don't stop until ~60.

    Wow! Thank goodness my mother did not abort me. He should be very grateful too.

    Hopefully by then they've become educated about how babies are made.

    What duplicate agency overhead are you talking about? Can you link to whatever source you're getting that from that shows Planned Parenthood and "local public health clinics" separately receiving funding?

    Those services are already subsidized by their healthcare policies and medicaid. PP is no longer needed. It's just an additional expense.

    Everyone who was born should be grateful they were born. What about those whose own mothers killed them?

    Globalists like Merkel seem to think importing more Muslims is the solution to Germany's lagging birth rate. :roflol:

    If a person has been born, why wouldn't he/she want the same for others?

    Ok, but the thread is about defunding Planned Parenthood, and your post statements matched the link I posted.

    I'm going to let you go ahead and try to answer your own question. Let's see if you can come up with any reasons why someone might want or support the rights of someone to obtain an abortion.

    I prefer self responsibility. Maybe I SHOULD control what others do so we can stop having so many unwanted pregnancies. Obviously we can't count on the average American to understand how babies are made.

    There's nothing Republicans like more, than unwanted pregnancies. More bullet-stoppers for the Military and the Prison Industrial Complex.

    Considering that immigrants tend to be healthier, younger, and less prone to committing crimes than the average population, I think she is right.
