Well, I am not a lefty by any measure [even my nasal septum is deviated to the right]. And as a taxpayer I would much rather fund $500 abortion than $100K welfare case [over 18 years, plus ancillary costs like law enforcement]. Of course, I would much rather not fund anything, but $500 is better than $100000.
“And as a taxpayer I would much rather fund $500 abortion than $100K... welfare casee...”
So, by doing the math and your cost effectiveness equation..we could kill 199 unborn babies by sucking their brains out and still come out ahead as solely fiscal conservatives.

Why not just fund a $1 bullet, and shoot the kid right after it’s born?
What is needed is reform.
Society will spend about $100K on the child regardless of the status of that child’s parent’s status. Unless we do such things as end taxpayer funded NEA controlled institutions known as public school, we need to define an end product. That product should be a student who has ata bear minimum, the ability to work with computers, logic, and language (Englisg only.) Those are minimum of what they will need to have a shot at becoming a net benefit to society.
For $500, Society get’s only death, and no chance of a return on investment.
I fall in the category where society probably spent on me than my parents were able to contribute. I am now a net benfit to society. Cheaper is not always better.
