[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm just saying...maybe instead of spending decades locked in this battle AND clouding it with religious and politics

Tackle it Economically: If these GOP people want more white children born to the lower class and lower middle class ( increasingly their voter base), then:

* Pass 18 month Paid Maternity Leave
     * Mandate Free Health Care- so poor white  men don't continue to lose much of their salaries and stay in sh+tty jobs just for insurance
     * Subsidize College education ( Like European Countries & Canada) so that a working  class or even middle class white man can afford to send the kids he wants the woman to have
     * Bring back high paying factory jobs / Union Jobs to America 'cause not every man is college material and if a woman isn't gonna see a man with poor income as a viable prospect

Do these things AND JUST maybe these working class White men wouldn't be misdirecting their anger and hostility at the only target in the room: the women of their social class[/quote]

But lots of people still just don't want a child, or can't have a child. You don't need to point at them and say: we made it so easy for you to carry and raise this child you didn't want. Here, go do it. Sure, a social safety net and better social structures would make it easier for more people to have children. You might find an uptick in voluntary birth rates with these things. But that doesn't address the college student who got drunk and had unprotected sex one night (or was raped one night). Or any of the other people who have abortions, for any number of reasons. I hate that we have to go to the worst stories with abortion - a woman who aborted a very wanted child at six months because of a horrible condition; the person raped by a relative; etc. You don't need to have been traumatized to decide that an abortion is the best choice for you. You don't need to have ZERO support in the world and be on the brink of literal starvation. Or you shouldn't need that.[/quote]
