[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait. I thought the pill was covered under Obamacare. So right there, 99.9% of all unwanted pregnancies are preventable. So now we are talking about 1 out of 1000 of all pregnancies. Let's say half of them live in a state where it's outlawed, so now one out of 2,000 need to take a bus to a blue state. Now let's say that half of them are too poor for a $50 bus ticket, so we are down to one out of 4,000 pregnancies. Now let's say that she can't get ten of her poor friends and family members to pitch in $4 or $5 each, so we are down to one out of 8,000 pregnancies represented by someone who honestly can't come up with $50.

So if each DCUM liberal, and it seems there are 5,000 of them (at least) contributes $10 to the "poor oerson's abortion bus fund," the will be a fund of $50,000. Now let's add in the other liberal cities, like LA and NY. If million of the UMC in NY does the same, that's $10 million! Add in LA, and another $10 million. So now we have an abortion bus fund of 20,0050,000! That would cover 400,000 bus rides, all from the one in 8,000 pregnancies where the person can't afford a ticket.

All it will take is for 2 million liberals, out of the 50 or so million we have, to pitch in $10. Someone should start a fund. Seriously.

And you’ve maxed out your contribution to the insufferable a-hole fund.[/quote]
And I see another liberal has no way to debate, other than to launch a personal insult at the suggestion or pitching in $10 to help poor people get abortions. [/quote]
Actually, what it shows is that if a woman is responsible with birth control, only one in 1000 will get pregnant, and of that number, only a very few can't afford to go to a blue state for an abortion. At worst, this will be a state-by-state decision. It's not as if abortion will ever be outlawed nationwide.

PP, no longer able to perform abortions in some states, could just divert that money for "abortion trips" to a neighboring state. Plus, they'd get lots of contributions from liberals. Anyone who wants an abortion could still get one, even if it required an overnight in a motel. Stop with  the sky-is-falling hysteria.

Besides,it won't ever come to that. Maybe a dozen of the deep red states will outlaw, but all "soft" red and swing states will continue to allow it. And that's a worst case situation.[/quote]

Let’s allow states to ban boner pills.  The money could be diverted to “boner trips” to a neighboring state.   [/quote]
