Sloth might include the unwillingness of natives to produce heirs. Abortion is the backup to failed/no contraception, if it takes the form of morning after pills. People get to think that an early on abortfacient is sort of like an aspirin after a night getting smashed. Well brought up young lady wakes up next to a guy she does not know. Despite her headache remembers she has failed to take birth control pills, so pop in a pill; also pop in pill for headache. Too bad they don’t have a pill to make the passed out guy in the bed go away.

“Sloth” also includes to unwillingness to address larger societal problems other than by throwing money at people who are annoying.

We could have a functioning education system, for example, but a significant number of people in power don’t want us to, and the vast majority don’t care ... so we throw money into a failing system and produce ever more illiterate and unskilled people.

We could have many more jobs available, at wage rates that reflect productive value, but ideologues and unions don’t want us to, and a lot of people just don’t care ... so we throw money at the unemployed, the unemployable, and the deliberately idle.

We could recognize, as a society, the social pathologies and attendant costs produced by people reared without fathers in communities without functioning authority ... but that would go against some people’s deeply-held ideology, and the majority just don’t care ... so we throw money at the children of the never-married and their mothers, and pretend it “fixes” something.

No matter how one “feels” intuitively about contraception, the point of this article is that the outcome of accepting and promoting contraception is more births to never-married mothers AND more abortions AND an ever-larger share of the population comprised of those who are immigrants, government-dependent, or both. Oh, and Moslems.

One can wish this were not true, just as one can wish that gun control reduced crime or that raising the minimum wage made the entire wage-labor population better off, but the facts are the facts.
