Poor receive substandard abortion care, says clinic worker
Clinic Quotes ^ | December 31, 2014 | Sarah Terzo

Posted on 01/03/2015 8:29:23 PM PST by Morgana

Clinic worker Jenny Higgins says that wealthy women get better abortion care than poor women do. She says:

“… We almost never service wealthier women at the clinics where I worked. In the southeastern clinic, which was in an urban area, the majority of the clients were African-American….. [Wealthy women] are more likely to have access to higher quality, private abortion care, either due to their insurance plans or because they can afford to pay out-of-pocket for such services.”

….

“Even though I prided myself on providing attentive and empathic care to the patients with whom I worked, the clinic infrastructure and patient overload prohibited the kind of service that members of the middle and upper classes have come to expect – or the kind of care I had received at relatively posh student health centers or private gynecologist offices.”

Jenny Higgins “Sex, Unintended Pregnancy, and Poverty: One Woman’s Evolution from “Choice” to “Reproductive Justice” in Krista Jacob. Abortion under Attack: Women on the Challenges Facing Choice (Emeryville, CA: Seal Press, 2006) 37-38

Sad part about this is Margaret Sanger was targeting the poor, and was trying to get them out of the "back alley abortions".

Liars. All liars.

The abortion business isn’t exactly a clean business. It’s a bloody business.

“Abortion care”. What an odd term. Who knew there were good abortions and bad abortions.

All but upper-class WASPs. Blacks and White ethnics, especially Catholics. She wanted a rich, White Socialist utopia.

Well as digger48 brought it up, Kermit Gosnell’s trail brought to light the substandard conditions for blacks in abortion clinics. The white women however had it somewhat better. It’s been said by others Gosnell knew white women would complain where as black women would not.

Exactly.

Just WHO is it that screams wildly when abortion clinics are mandated to have the same standards of cleanliness, sanitation, resuscitation equipment, and hospital privileges as other outpatient surgery clinics?

Pro-aborts, that's who.

Because expecting an abortionist to sterilize their instruments is just such a terrible, unreasonable "burden".

If black lives really mattered they’d be burning abortion clinics to the ground instead of 7-Elevens.

...”abortion Care”...

Somehow there’s something really wrong about using those two words together.

Of the wealthy women seeking abortions in the 21st century, what are primary reasons given?

Wrong sex?
Split with husband?
Interferes with her career (even with mandatory corporate maternity leave now)?
Product of an adulterous affair?

With so many babies born out of wedlock these days (over 40% in general population, no? And over 70% among black women) where is the shame in it anymore? “I can’t have a baby because it’s too shameful!”

These “wealthy” women (and the baby daddies) can afford to raise the kids so it isn’t financial circumstances.

Truly wealthy women don’t even need to work.

So what is the motivation for seeking an abortion?

I love it.

They decide where to put their clinics.

They specifically have a policy to put them in areas where black population demos are high.

Then they bitch that white women don’t come to their clinics.

They create the situation they complain about like it’s the fault of other people ....

And they wanted the black clientelle all along because they’re eugenicists.

Talk about creating a false crisis in order to bitch about another contrived problem.

These evil people better enjoy their time on earth because right now, their time on earth is going to be the closest to heaven they are gonna get.

And let’s not forget these libtards are the same ones who elected libtard politicians in the 1960s - Johnson - to set up social programs to eradicate the black family.

Once the black family was in decline, black women turned more and more to abortion. Don’t think this wasn’t part of the plan of the socialist/eugencists.

It’s like saying “Christian Porn” or “Affirmative Rape.”

Nonsensical and just wrong.
