Just think if that many had been born each year since Roe v. Wade - there could have been more workers contributing to SS today - not to mention a myriad of possibilities had they been allowed to live.

Instead many Baby Boomers pushed abortion on demand, and still consider it a "right," while they tried to make up the difference by importing Mexico's desperate underclass. My relatively tiny generation (born 1973) is squeezed in the middle, between the entitlements for aging Boomers, and a booming foreign born underclass. In short. Were screwed.

I have spent nearly a lifetime fighting illegal immigration. When did we "make up the difference by importing Mexico's desperate underclass". Did I miss an election?? How do you justify that comment. I'm really curious. Reagan pushed amnesty through. I don't think he was a boomer.....

The frank answer to this abortion issue? I just don't know many girls who got abortions. In fact, had after doing the research, we find that boomers, far more numerous, appear to have far less abortions:

Using 1950 as a birth date, adding 20 years, well, it looks like it peaks in 1980-1990. Boomers were a bit old for abortions by then. Even though there were A LOT MORE of them. I've actually never met a boomer over the age of 35 that even considered an abortion.
