Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.) says it was women joining the workforce after World War II that helped the economy grow, producing a “strong and healthy middle class.” And that continues to be the case today, she told MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell on Monday.

“And now, in very, very significant numbers, women are…a part of the workforce and have contributed greatly to allowing families to get ahead in the economy. What permits that is women being able to control when or whether they have children and how many. And it is so basic to our economic prosperity that women have that control.” …

The post-war economy would’ve boomed with or without women in the workplace.

Evil.....how long until she touts eugenics?

This statement comes from a dyke so ugly that she couldn't get laid in a gigolo house with a fistful of dollars.

You already have control, unless you need an instruction manual to figure out how to close your legs.

Economic Prosperity of Planned Parenthood More Like It!

I saw an article the other day that in NY more than half of all black babies are aborted.

I am number 13 of 16. I am glad my parents didn't stop with 12.

Too bad her parents didn't practice abortion.

18 years of child support payments impacts mens’ earning potential and lifestyles too.

They only get one time to decide if they “want” to become a father and that is when they consent to the sex act. Women can shirk their own responsibility to their baby up into the third trimester. In Europe they want to extend that out to several weeks/months after birth.

This is completely illogical when it comes to understanding basic economics.

Well, some liberal feminazi types say that men should have no say in issues of birth control. So, how is it that an openly lesbian female is going to tell us about women and birth control and families? Do the same liberal criteria apply, namely, that Baldwin has no right to an opinion because she has no husband and no children and no family situation in the first place?

Or is it okay for her to speak out because she spouts a liberal line???

My husband mentioned this morning that Fox News had an article up about “how to get pregnant.” There are some really ignorant people out there.

[MichaelCorleone]

Womyn’s positive effect on economic growth is questionable at best. But their effect on the family and the American culture, both direct and indirect, is undeniable and irrefutable.

And with all this supposed ‘progress’, they still whine and carry on like two year olds.

[Olog-hai]

Dictating to “breeders” now (as they call straight people). Sound prejudiced much on their part?

[liberalh8ter]

Soft eugenics with the ‘imperfect’ being willing participants. Sanger must be giddy and Satan must be proud.

[dfwgator]

She’s the last person who needs to worry about taking birth control.

[lavaroise]

Ah. Death is economic? A polluting fruitless woman is economical? It is nearly pointless unless a nun devoted to people who are taxed too much and need help.

[a fool in paradise]

To the sex positive/anti-abstience pushing radical socialist feminist Left, it is “unhealthy” not to act on sexual desires. There is no such thing as “cheating”, just a “patriarchy” that “makes married women the property of their husbands”.

The goal is to smash the patriachy, smash the establishment, smash the state.

Free love isn’t free. It takes a heavy toll on society and the human debris it leaves behind.

The republicans have yet to articulate that it’s not birth control we have a problem with. It’s paying for it with taxpayer dollars that’s the problem.

[afraidfortherepublic]

Sen. Tammy Baldwin on birth control. (Don’t we wish that her mother had practiced it?)

FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
