Isn’t that the opposite of what the book Freakonomics proposed?

[G8 Diplomat]

Well no duh it increases the crime rate...it increases the murder rate.

[llevrok]

It seems a decent hypothesis that abortion has cheapened life hence more violent crime

I used to say that the only thing good about abortion is that is gives us one less future liberal. However the damn things seem to be increasing exponentially!

"Freedomnomics," is being called a conservative response to the publication of a manifesto of liberal political and economic theory by University of Chicago economist Steven Levitt and New York Times journalist Stephen J. Dubner, which topped the 2005 New York Times bestseller list.

I read Freakonomics. I found nothing in there that would lead me to believe it was a "manifesto of liberal political and economic theory". On the contrary, I thought it was well written and thought-provoking. When it touched on political issues the authors went out of their way not to add too much social commentary.

Irresponsible crackhead fathers have to come up with the money for the abortion or the girls get pissed. Once the word gets around he won’t fess up, all his girls cut him off.

He has to go steal something to pay for the abortion.

For the sake of argument, even IF abortion brought down the crime rate:

A) That was far from the original intention of Pro-Abortionists

B) Who made the abortionists god and choose who would be a violent criminal and who wouldn't?...More innocents STILL were killed in the process

[Antoninus]

Claims by liberal economist Steven Levitt that abortion, in reducing the number of "unwanted" children, has eliminated significant numbers of the kind of people who commit crimes. Blacks, Latinos, and "White trash".

Just fixing it so that we can see what he meant to say. Ain't the left just full of sweethearts?

[Bladerunnuh]

If abortion were outlawed tomorrow, imagine all the people who would be out of work. First, the doctors and nurses who perform the procedures, then there are the men and women who work at the factories to make the clamps, garbage bags, and vacuum-brain-suckee-thingees and how are they going to put food on their tables?

[jeddavis]

Sounds like an apples and oranges mixup. Levitt was talking about crimes committed BY unwanted children, not against them.

The murdering of over 46 million unborn children is a legal “crime” - legal homicide.

I’ve been saying this for years.....expect the libs to rebut that “correlation does not mean causation”.
