    Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., in a Senate hearing May 10. 2022. (Video screenshot)

    Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen's economic argument for justifying the killing of babies in the womb – emphasizing the benefit for labor-force participation, minorities and poor women – didn't sit well with Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C.

    At a hearing Tuesday, the only black Republican in the Senate responded to Yellen framing abortion in terms of economic indicators, saying it "feels callous to me."..

    Scott interrupted Yellen, noting his time was running out.

    "I'll just say that as a guy raised by a black woman in abject poverty, I am thankful to be here as a United States senator," he said.

    See the exchange:

    Later, Scott responded to a Democratic senator who asked why he should "impose" the circumstances of his life on others….

    S
    enator Scott was right to point out the callous hypocrisy of the secular progressive elites. He called them out and pointed to other circumstances people can succeed from. People who were born into poverty are mostly grateful that their mom chose life.

    Amazing how the party that claims to care about black people is willing to admit that killing unborn black babies is a real strategy for combating poverty.

    Of course that could be fixed WITHOUT taking away a woman’s right to bodily autonomy

    upload_2022-5-12_19-10-56.jpeg

    and yet there are some, well idiot is too kind a word, Republican state actors who want to ban contraception

    This just proves it is not about “saving lives” but punishing women for having sex

    It's always amazing that people like you declare that not wanting abortifacient (birth control that prevents the implantation of fertilized eggs) birth control to be covered to not wanting any birth control to be covered. Typical straw man arguments are typical...

    I've noticed there have been more and more of these "saying the quiet part out loud" moments. I wonder how many people have supported Yellen's idea of killing the poor to reduce poverty idea for years?

    It reveals their moral bankruptcy. God forbid anyone should have to overcoome poverty.

    Got news for ya. Blacks are not the only minority in this country nor do they hold the exclusive rights to poverty.
    But they do hold one record in that arena. More black babies are aborted than born.

    The percentage escaping poverty has been dropping like a rock dropped off a cliff.

    The people falling into poverty has been rising dramatically.

    People have been surviving poverty since we first appeared on earth. It's our default condition.

    Yellen reminds me of Fauci. They both have that same mid atlantic drawl that's just grating. Oh, and the pejorative is astounding. She literally said that young women must find their way into the labor market. It's like slavery or something. God forbid women have children and stay out of the labor market... Janet reminds us that the only goal of the plantation is plenty of slaves to make the lives of the owners comfortable.

    It's the dirty little Eugenics creed democrats have adhered to for over a century now. Democrats believe killing off minority families is the key to their being able to sustain them in poverty and subservience for ever.

    That's a clever way to say absolutely nothing.

    You want people to escape poverty by themselves, but that's just not happening in meaningful numbers.

    In fact, it's getting worse.

    There are always people willing to help people out of poverty, particularly religious organizations, but people do not improve their their situations until they stop thinking of themselves as victims. There are better ways out of poverty for them than to kill their children.

    It was true 50 years ago.

    Now that river is flowing in the other direction.

    I think it is even more amazing that anyone is so ill informed as to think “Plan B” is an abortifacient. May I suggest you look up the word and while you are doing so please review the natural failure rate between fertilisation and implantation

    Oh! And may I suggest also that in future you refrain from terms such as “people like you” as it could be construed as breaching the tos of this site

    You should pray you're wrong. That way ends in nihilism.

    Oh! Dear! Another member who seems unaware of the success rates of various birth control methods

    One of the major reasons for unwanted pregnancy is the “typical” use of condoms

    Sure Jan. No one can read that image FYI it's the size of a 2005 phone screen. Put a link in that allows for it to be opened and viewed.
