Obamacare guru shocks again with abortion boast
World Net Daily ^ | November 14, 2014 | Jerome Corsi

NEW YORK – The Obamacare architect at the center of controversy for his frank admissions that passing the president’s signature legislation required lying to the American people published a paper during the Clinton administration observing that legalizing abortion saved the government $14 billion in assistance to economically disadvantaged mothers, including African Americans, and lowered crime.

MIT economics professor Jonathan Gruber argued in his paper that without the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, “marginal children” would have been born to many poor mothers. He said statistics show these children would have been 70 percent more likely to live in a single-parent family, 40 percent more likely to live in poverty, 50 percent more likely to receive welfare and 35 percent more likely to die as an infant.

Economist Steven D. Levitt and journalist Stephen J. Dubner in their bestselling 2005 book, “Freakonomics,” relied on Gruber’s work to argue that legalizing abortion was responsible for an approximately 50 percent reduction of crime in major urban centers in the early 1990s

Was is in The Bell Curve that drop in crime was associated with legalized abortion? It makes a lot of sense.

I just posted on another thread (about pro-life women in the new Congress) that we will never outlaw abortion as long as we have issues with our unassimilated black underclass.

My, word. Now more proof that the progressive democrats purposely; all along have this arrogant justification to play some sort of freakish master as creator, and executior..Looks like the death panels theory was already being used. What a look into Obama’s mind and the progressives of what they see of the black family.

And, yet, these dumb blacks continue to support the party that hates them. It doesn’t make sense to me.

He means,

“We killed those babies, so we didn’t have to pay their mommas. And later we avoided having to ARREST and IMPRISON them..”

That…..is a pretty amazing statement.

Who needs forced sterilizations like they have in dictatorships when poor, ignorant women can be easily enticed by Democrats into murdering their unborn children in Planned Parenthood death camps?

No wonder the Left is so eager to expand legal abortion beyond the womb and into the first few months of life. Think how many billions more the government could save if actual infanticide were made legal?

I read Freakonomics and it’s way leftist but there’s some interesting stuff in there. Also read What’s Wrong with Kansas? and look how Kansas was helped to move left, but that’s been finally nipped in the bud.

Looks like we’re seeing the highwater mark of Progressivism, people. And not a day too soon. Thank You Jon Gruber, and Mr. Weinstein.

Yes, especially when you include the unmentioned goal.

Molech is delighted!

Gruber sure is schmart! He depends on stupid people to vote for his schemes but he wants to limit the number of stupid people being born.

This explains solidly why the democrats do refuse to help educate the poor blacks. For years, many have been praying they would even see that their polices were not helpful. They never intended to do such ( I am not surprised) but hitting you in the face of this news, shows you what many have accused the liberals of for many years, was spot on. The libs have caused so much suffering to human beings. I don’t see how they go to a mirror to see an image to continue on another day. It wasn’t about a right of choice; blood on their hands, we have the proof. They played some freakish g od in my view, to cross the line of such inhumanity. Explains why they didn’t give a second thought about those babies being murdered at Gosnell’s center.

It doesn't make sense to me either - especially given the fact that most abortuaries are located in minority neighborhoods.

And yet WE conservatives are the ones who are called "racists???"

BFD,how many blacks will read and understand this. 2016 the Dems will still get 93% of the black vote!

But how can any reasonable person believe that the Democrats’ motives for promoting abortion are to save government dollars and reduce crime — instead of the racist motive of killing off Blacks — when the very same Democrats want to flood the country with exorbitantly expensive illegal immigrants who will enormously increase our crime rates?

All of the little children the progressive liberals have just decided NOT to give a chance of life to and they have the damn gaul, to say they help the black communities and by being of a conservative thought, you harm black children. There will be a judgment on this because they are millions of lost souls who deserve peace. I wish black people could see this and fight back for change not fight against those who want to help. But many are brainwashed, don’t hate them; people.

Morally and economically retarded.

Take out the moral issue. He's just, plain WRONG. It's Malthusianism.

I'm afraid a lot of FReepers secretly believe the same twisted logic.
