How is abortion an economic issue?
Being forced to carry an unwanted pregnancy to term means:
— Families are 4x more likely to live below the poverty line
— Parents are 3x less likely to work full-time
— Parents are 6x more likely to receive public assistance
@rbreich we have an entire movement in Canada at AbortionIsHealthcare.ca
@rbreich
- it takes about $200,000-$250,000 to raise a child to 18yo in America
@rbreich That, and wealthy proponents of anti-abortion like politicians and pastors just go out-of-state. "They will know we are Christians by our love." Or at least the license plates in states that permit health care for women.
@rbreich
What about reproductive medicine?
Mainly a business model in an already overcrowded world.
@rbreich Do you want to move into or out of the state where women have diminished standing?
@rbreich
now do single women, who have most of the abortions.
