This discussion illustrates a serious problem that right to life conservatives will have to deal with in election politics. Inconvenient facts: less abortion will probably mean more low income, welfare babies; Republicans have been voting against WIC (which helps improved nutrition and presumably health of mothers and infants and less need for subsidized health care); conservatives also seem to be against birth control and contraception which should also result in increased numbers of low income, welfare babies and seekers of abortion; in general there seems to be a lack of Republican/conservative support for post birth babies.

This leads many to consider the whole anti abortion issue to be a covert effort to increase the numbers of the poor and reduce the independence of women. Sounds something like Sharia law. How to reconcile these logical contradictions will be a major task if Republicans/conservatives are to win more than their base.

Lots of BS based on the false premise that we can’t possibly return morality to the culture as a factor.

The NUMBER ONE cause of poverty is sex before marriage.

If it is an unavoidable consequence for a behavior choice, there will be less of that behavior choice made.

Leftists assume an immoral culture, because they WANT an immoral culture. They also assume that people do not react to incentives.

Your post does both as well.

So let me get this straight: Liberal feminism ditched babies in the womb because they would prevent women from engaging in consequence-free, random sex like men. Given that over half of the children thus killed are women, liberal feminism is now saying that the path to independence for women is to kill millions of little girls. So if we’re talking logical contradictions here, don’t you think the liberal feminists have a lock on that market? As opposed, say to those pesky conservatives who want to discourage our culture from getting used to murdering the inconvenient? And what does Sharia say about dismemberment?
