BTW, how do you propose that we control the population of the United States without abortion? I want to hear this.

I thought I had enumerated three instances in a clear and unambiguous manner. I proposed that the government withdraw its subsidies for procreation.

What makes you think that I have ever proposed that we "control the population United States"?

How do you propose to stimulate population growth apart from the forceful insemination of women?

I will stop asking that question when you stop conflating opposition to government controlling population, that is, controlling its increase with support for abortion. You are resorting to the rankest kind of unfair debating tactics. You are inviting an equivalent response, and you just got one.

For the record, I oppose now and I have always opposed government subsidies for abortion. I am opposed to government controlling population up or controlling population down. I would support the withdrawal of subsidies which encourage procreation. Check your dictionary to understand the difference between "encouragement" and "control."

It is a deplorable debating tactic to resort to the ad hominem. What you did in these two paragraphs is scurrilous:

Most prolifers (if not all), see children as a blessing. Most proaborts (if not all), see children as a burden.

You are treating children as a burden and claim to be against abortion. That to me seems implausible.

In your last post you twice suggested I kill myself. You are a caricature of an abortion fanatic. If I don't pander to you with the requisite politically correct vocabulary I am a "pro-abort" and I should "kill" l myself.

I concede no moral ground to you on this subject whatsoever:

Ruthie "Remidies" is Preganant! A different view of Gonzolas v. Carhart

I will let the reader judge.

“I proposed that the government withdraw its subsidies for procreation.”

While retaining public support for planned parenthood. I see.

“How do you propose to stimulate population growth apart from the forceful insemination of women?”

If you read my post I would have explained how. Remove subsidies for population control. If we aren’t paying you to kill your baby, and we aren’t paying for your contraception, and we lower taxes across the board, people will be more likely to have and keep their children.

“I will stop asking that question when you stop conflating opposition to government controlling population”

I’m still waiting for your answer as to how you propose we should stop the population of the US from increasing without invoking abortion.

“Check your dictionary to understand the difference between “encouragement” and “control.” “

There is coercion and there is coercion. How do you propose that the government ‘encourage’ people not to have children and add to the surplus population?

“It is a deplorable debating tactic to resort to the ad hominem”

Which is why you still aren’t answering the question asked.

“In your last post you twice suggested I kill myself.”

It is the logical consequence of this argument.

One, there are too many people in America today.
Two, reducing the population would improve America.

Ergo, I should kill myself to reduce the population pressure on America.

“I concede no moral ground”

Hey, it’s simple. Answer the question asked.
