Yeah but the reproductive act is as hard-wired into the species as breathing air and drinking water. The only thing which seems to work to reduce the birth rate is to make life better for the women. Give them education, and access to contraception, and keep the goon squads of a repressive state away from them. All liberal priorities for the developing world, BTW. Just saying.

Women have had a judge made right to abortion in this country since 1973 and we have an illegitimacy rate of 40 % and more people on welfare than ever.Comment

So you're saying that poor women need more options, not less, to escape the cycle of raising children in poverty, right? To set aside the burdens of motherhood until they're mature and economically well off enough to do a proper job of it. Increasing abortion access seems like it would help.Comment

I like to quote the words of the late Professor Elizabeth Fox-Genovese:
"By declaring "reproductive freedom" to be women's exclusive right, it dismisses the claims of men and cancels their obligations to the next generation."
And I tell people to watch the video "Swipe Yo' EBT !" and then we'll discuss welfare "dependence" and "poverty".Comment

Wouldn't it be nice to have a system that encourages multi-generational families, with parents and grand parents passing on a bit to the kids to help them in life? And if the kids did the same, in a few generations most people would be wealthy.Comment

But the ones who SHOULD, if they were half-way responsible individuals, be availing themselves of free abortions, don't do so because getting preggo is, in their degenerate sub-culture, a recognized "job," their way to get the money to set up a household of their own! Moving away from their equally rotten parent (a single mother, of course) is for them a step up in the world with a guaranteed income, no work requirement, free medical care, etc.So you're saying that poor women need more options, not less, to escape the cycle of raising children in poverty, right?

THIS is why free abortions haven't reduced illegitimacy--our welfare laws make pregnancy a viable way to "earn a living" for those lacking both job skills & motivation!Comment

And 46 years of abortion on demand has given us a generation-several generations-of men who could care less about "their" children, resent having them, resent be excluded from the reproductive decision making process-except when it comes time to pay the bills-and whose attitudes and expectations for their offspring are best summed up by the one deadbeat dad interviewed by Newsweek in 1992, who, when asked what sort of relationship did he expect to have with his sons if he refused to pay child support, replied:
"None."Comment

So here's his response to my explanation of why young, poor, women don't bother to get free abortions. His point is that such women have & deserve the right to exercise their "freedom" by imposing on productive society the consequences (bastards) of their sexual irresponsibility--or what he would call, "freedom."
He's right that access to abortions is, unfortunately for the rest of society, increasingly limited in rural areas, but not so in the big cities where most of these parasites live.Comment

If the "plague" comes forth to a great deal, what will California demand from the federal government and more important what will the federal government be willing to do?

No, my point is that people make decisions, quite a few of which are not to your liking, for their own damn reasons. You want to change that?

well, we are not in the dark ages anylonger , despite what some may think,,,
so, guessing if the case load at the hospitals gets too bad, the CDC will step in if needed,
the bills for the homeless will be covered by medicaid, (state and federal funded IIRC)Comment
