[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Barring rape and all the other statistically unrealistic "what ifs" there is a bottom line here.

If you are a woman having sex, even while on birth control, there is a chance you will become pregnant. As adults we have to be responsible for our actions and accept the consequences of our actions.

Abortion, adoption, raising the child. Those are the choices. You cannot expect anyone else to foot the bill for you to be a parent. Its ridiculous.

And I think questioning the ethics of adoption just to further a socialist agenda is nasty and uncalled for.

To confirm: you see no need to improve US policies on families nor provide pregnant women in this country greater support, correct?[/quote]

To confirm: You think women are unable to take responsibility for themselves and need someone to take care of them, correct?

To confirm: You are one of those [b]distribution of wealth socialists[/b] who want to live in a nanny state, correct?[/quote]

No man is an island...

We are members of a society. Our collective responsibility to one another fills the gap when an individual's personal circumstances leaves them needing more.

If you are content not distributing wealth, let's make access to water a privilege, defund road construction and infrastructure repair, do away with any economic or business regulation, let the free market determine the value of all things, dismantle the public school system, privatize emergency responders and the police force (and the military, for that matter), close the libraries, end garbage collection, get rid of the landfills, close the jails and prisons, end corporate welfare, etc. etc. etc.[/b]

I'll take the nanny state.[/quote]

While your comparison was ridiculous, I'd take all of that being privatized over a nanny state.[/quote]

Privatize water and the police? Okay, I'm done with you.[/quote]

Pssst. I was pointing out that the PPs leap was ridiculous. [/quote]
