From the corporation’s standpoint, it’s cheaper to pay for an abortion than pay maternity expenses and another name added to the company benefits package.

It’s hard to imagine putting a cost benefit analysis on the birth of a human being but it’s being done.

Time to abort any tax laws favoriting the large corporations - maybe get some lefties on board.

I suspect that “covering the costs” won’t last long, after they have wrung as much publicity out of it as they can.

Can these companies write this off on their taxes?

According to this site an uncomplicated live birth is $13k.

Toss in 12 weeks of maternity leave and killing the baby is by far cheaper than giving birth.

I guess America has crossed a line. We will now kill for cash.

These are companies that piss their shareholders funds away for political reasons.

These corporations are killing inconvenient children who get in the way of work. For the company, this is cheaper than maternal leave.

The mothers are pressured to be team players and get abortions instead of selfishly having babies.

This is anti-woman.

It gets worse, just think if one of these same corporations said, no we are not paying for the abortion, have the child we will pay according to our benefits package and put the child’s name on the benefits package as well.

That corporation would be subject to a mountain of harassment and ridicule, threats of boycott, and attempts to get executives fired, etc...

All because someone stood up for human life.

Of course, as donations or some sort of promotional expense.

I see a new slogan for Disney.

"I'm going to Disney World kill my baby!"

Magical.

I think I need an abortion. Will they give me airfare and a hotel room in NYC for three days?

Stockholders should question this misuse of revenue. And what about employees who don’t want to kill their babies? Can they get free trips, maybe for a wellness day or so? Even better, to a pro-life activity?
