[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand why poverty is a good reason to kill a baby.[/quote]

Because in our country poverty is a trap that is terribly hard to get out of. Not only for the mother but for her children as well. Choice of fertility and child birth can make an enormous difference to the entire households' welfare. Making it easier for women (and men) to control how many children they conceive and bear to term is both individually and socially beneficial. But I honestly don't think Republicans give a rats ass about poverty (cheap labor) or the social consequences of it (schadenfreude). In my mind they must be completely lacking in compassion as they seem to be putting all of their focus and attention on the potential for life and not on actual life. That and I think they are completely misogynist. The fact that they completely miss the idea that women don't want to get pregnant unintentionally and don't want to have to make the decision to end that potential life. They have no idea of the violence and struggle that surrounds these women's lives. And until the Rebuplican party is actually focused on eliminating poverty and unintended pregrancies, I won't believe a word they say about wanting to "protect the sanctity of life." They can kiss my ass.[/quote]
