NEW YORK The Obamacare architect at the center of controversy for his frank admissions that passing the presidents signature legislation required lying to the American people published a paper during the Clinton administration observing that legalizing abortion saved the government $14 billion in assistance to economically disadvantaged mothers, including African Americans, and lowered crime.
MIT economics professor Jonathan Gruber argued in his paper that without the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, marginal children would have been born to many poor mothers. He said statistics show these children would have been 70 percent more likely to live in a single-parent family, 40 percent more likely to live in poverty, 50 percent more likely to receive welfare and 35 percent more likely to die as an infant.
Economist Steven D. Levitt and journalist Stephen J. Dubner in their bestselling 2005 book, Freakonomics, relied on Grubers work to argue that legalizing abortion was responsible for an approximately 50 percent reduction of crime in major urban centers in the early 1990s.

Sounds like this pig is channeling Margaret Sanger.

Really, these statements demonstrate criminal intent of extortion, money laundering, and the outright attempts of fraud against the American people?
Example on a smaller scale of a similar RICO case: Eleven defendants were indicted on RICO charges for allegedly assisting AccessHealthSource, a local health care provider, in obtaining and maintaining lucrative contracts with local and state government entities in the city of El Paso, Texas, through bribery of and kickbacks to elected officials or himself and others, extortion under color of authority, fraudulent schemes and artifices, false pretenses, promises and representations and deprivation of the right of citizens to the honest services of their elected local officials, source Wikipedia. Very seriously are not this man's statements the smoking gun we've been looking for?
Herr Gruber is obviously a follower of Margaret Sanger, mother of Planned Parenthood, who considered Blacks an inferior race. More Black babies have been incinerated by the abortionists than any other race. Gruber brags about government efficiency, much as Hitler did in solving “the Jewish problem.”
The Sixty Minutes TV show could air a live program of Barack Obama raping 8 year old boys and his loyal band of idiots and fools would still believe it was a Tea Party hoax.
Thank you I am adding your post to this thread.

I think this was a chapter topic in one of the Freakecomics books. In a pure economic sense, removing any moral/ethical issues, it makes sense.
What amazes me is that he is telling all this stuff now. No doubt doing so has put a HUGE target on his head and I would suggest, his days are numbered. The “King” does not take things like this lightly.
All the Democrats chickens are coming home to roost!
I long for the day blacks march on the democrats headquarters and burn it to the ground when they discover how they have been duped all these years.
lol
heck even if it was proven to be TRUE they would still stand with him saying the Tea Party “set him up!”
Holy Eugenics Movement, Batman!
It's time for EVERYONE, all political parties, to renounce this creature.
Wow. The video clips of this guy just keep coming.
Democrats would demand that the 8 year old boys be prosecuted as operatives of a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy to discredit the Obamassiah.
Guy sounds like Dr. Joseph Mengele.
He’s Ok for millions of abortion deaths so long as it wipes out a substantial number of black babies who would only cause crime anyway?
Wow! In a sane world urban America would be. screaming about genocide for dollars. And for once they would be right.
On Margaret Sanger, the Soviets, and Democrats
Townhall.com ^ | April 15, 2011 | Paul Kengor
[W]e could well take example from Russia, advised Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger, where birth control instruction is part of the regular welfare service of the government.
Sanger, racial-eugenicist who spoke to a 1926 KKK rally, whose work included a Negro Project, who wished to rid America of human weeds and morons and imbeciles, and who wanted birth control for race improvement, had just returned from a pilgrimage to Stalins Russia. Like many progressives (click here for John Deweys experiences), she went there to soak in the alleged triumphs of the communist motherland, marveling at Lenins and Stalins advancements for women.
And so, in the June 1935 edition of her publication, Birth Control Review, in an article titled, Birth Control in Russia, Sanger concluded:
Theoretically, there are no obstacles to birth control in Russia. It is accepted on the grounds of health and human right . [W]e could well take example from Russia, where there are no legal restrictions, no religious condemnation, and where birth control instruction is part of the regular welfare service of the government.
I could quote more, including this jaw-dropping prediction: All the officials with whom I discussed the matter stated that as soon as the economic and social plans of Soviet Russia are realized, neither abortions nor contraception will be necessary or desired. A functioning Communistic society will assure the happiness of every child, and will assume the full responsibility for its welfare and education.
Now there, ladies and gentleman, is progressive utopianism, an absolute faith in central planners. Contrary to the Planned Parenthood matrons optimism, abortions skyrocketed to seven million annually in the USSR.
What struck me in recently re-reading this article is how Democrats in America have arrived at Sangers ideal, where Planned Parenthoods services have become, in their mind, part of the regular welfare service of the governmentjust like Stalinist Russia.
Consider the revealing response by Democrats to completely legitimate Republican attemptsamid record deficits and debt levelsto cut taxpayer funding of Planned Parenthood:
Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) vowed: The dangerous, ideological cuts to Planned Parenthood
are never, never, never going to pass the Senate.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said Republicans had placed a bulls eye on women in America, barring them from health services they need.
The real reason that the right-wing extremists in Congress orchestrated this outrageous government shutdown, added Rep. Diana DeGette (D-CO), is to try and defund Planned Parenthood as part of their ideological assault on womens health care.
Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA) explained, This is a war on women. Theyre trying to inject their politics and their religion into local family planning.
Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) insisted that defunding efforts were nothing more than an opportunity for the right wing in the House to sock it to women.
Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) called it a very dangerous situation for women. Pelosi told reporters: Its degrading to women.
And Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) described Republican efforts as a vendetta against women, insisting, Behind each of these Republican proposed cuts, there are thousands, maybe millions of people who would be hurt.
Remember when liberals called for civility?
And remember, too, when President Obama referred to tax cuts for the wealthy as the Republicans Holy Grail? Well, taxpayer funding of Planned Parenthood appears to be the Democrats Holy Grail. As Obama and Republican Speaker John Boehner battled over a budget compromise, Obama drew a line in the sand on Planned Parenthood, snapping: Nope. Zero. John, this is it.
The room fell silent. Obama had hoisted the Holy Grail.
Youd think from Democrats reaction that taxpayer funding of the nations largest abortion provider was Article 1 of the Constitution, an inalienable right in the Declaration, a sacred political covenant with taxpayers, anchored in the writings of Jefferson and Madison and Locke and Adams, etched in cement at the base of the Washington Monument.
Its preposterous that America has run so far aground that we even seriously entertain directing taxpayer dollars to the nations largest abortion provider. The right to an abortion had to be read into the Constitution, at the exclusion of sections (the 14th Amendment) guaranteeing a right to life. Abortion was read into the right to privacy, three words which dont exist in the Constitution.
It took Democrats a while to get there, but, finally, almost a century after the start of the Bolshevik Revolution and Margaret Sangers organization, theyve arrived at where the Soviets and Sanger found common ground. They indeed act as if, as Sanger said about Stalins Russia, birth control is part of the regular service of the government.
The saddest thing is that neither they, nor their supporters, nor America, seem to comprehend the outrageousness of their position.
