Democrats' Argument for Aborting Poor People's Children: Living Children Are Too Expensive
Hotair ^ | 04/04/2025 | David Strom

Posted on 04/04/2025 5:30:54 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

Margaret Sanger promoted birth control as the path to eliminating minorities and the disabled to clean up the gene pool. Planned Parenthood, her legacy, jumped on abortion as a means to accomplish this goal.

That isn't hyperbole. It is just a fact. Mike Wallace called her a hero. The entire Democratic Party turned her into a saint and has poured tens of billions into Planned Parenthood to accomplish that goal. And now Colorado Democrats are openly justifying their plan to subsidize abortions for the poor because, well, poor kids are expensive to the state.

2/ Let me break down what's happening:

- New bill (SB 25-183) to force Medicaid to cover abortions
- Claims it'll "save" $550K annually
- They're literally calling dead babies "averted births"

THIS IS NOT A JOKE.https://t.co/ET6TYhtLvh— Rod D. Martin (@RodDMartin) April 4, 2025

Usually, abortion proponents twist themselves into knots talking about autonomy, preventing "forced births," female empowerment, and all the rest of the BS they use to justify their bloodthirsty policies. But the fact is that more Black ba

But they appear to be abandoning that gauzy rhetoric and getting down to brass tacks: the poor suck, and we need fewer of them. How are we going to afford high-speed rail and interpretive dances depicting the beauty of gangland violence if we don't start killing the poor? Kill the babies and euthanize the infirm so funds will be freed up for better things that the AWFLs like. 

3/ The numbers they're pushing:

💰 $5.9M to fund abortions

💰 $6.4M in "savings" from prevented births

They're literally calculating ROI on killing babies. Let that sink in.

4/ 🚨 IMPORTANT CONTEXT: Colorado passed Amendment 79 in 2024 making abortion a "constitutional right"

This new bill is Phase 2: Making YOU pay for it with YOUR tax dollars

It's hard to call this line of argument--it's fiscally sound policy to kill babies before they are born--is driven by anything other than a justification of eugenics using the argument that poor people are expensive, so their numbers should be reduced. And the poor people in question are usually black, so it is hardly a stretch to call this "systemically racist."

I'm not trying to use a "gotcha" argument here. Blacks and other minorities are more likely to be on Medicaid than whites--that is just a fact--and this bill is intended to reduce the number of Medicaid-eligible babies. 

I'm not sure that "it's just about the money, not the race" is very convincing. 

With that said, I'm pretty sure that the proponents themselves aren't thinking mostly in terms of race. Killing black and brown people through abortion is just one of their projects. They also are very much in favor of sterilizing and mutilating white children, who are disproportionately likely to proclaim themselves "trans." And they seem happy to see white executives killed, too.

Isn’t this same twisted reasoning from Margaret Sanger for bringing the abomination Planned Parenthood into existence? Only Sanger’s objective was killing black babies. And to think Adolph Hitler admired Sanger’s objectives. Sheesh!

Maybe if Nancy Pelosi and Man-Boy-Love hubby liquidated most of their assets, then they could help struggling young mothers. But it would mean giving up $12 per pint ice cream.

Who is going to care for you when you are old?
Who is going to protect your butt when you can’t
fight anymore?
Kids can be a pain in the ass.
I’ve raised many of other peoples kids.
Including my family.
I don’t regret any of them.
OR THE COST!
I know if I ask for help and enable them, they will
help me as they can.
I can’t imagine being a sick old lady with only cats and the occasional social worker for company.
My 50 year old daughter and her family is worth way more than I could ever put a price on.

Children eat less than adults, and don’t need nearly the medical procedures or meds that Adu ,take do, so maybe the ,iberals making that argument should abort themselves instead of the children- they can have their kids and then abort thesmelves.

How very Democrat of them.

Now for the silver lining.

I'm sure a lot of women who abort their pregnancies are Conservative but I would guess that far more are Liberals so they are limiting or reducing the number of future Liberals. Of course that has been the case for the last 50 years or so, so my theory may be flawed.

The bill won’t work because all illegal aliens are paid more money to have babies.
The more kids they have, the more money and other perk they get.

Kids don’t necessarily follow their parents political proclivities very long.
When you start doing things like paying taxes, making house payments, and having kids, dramatically change your point of view.
My Dad considered me to be far right wing, I considered him a middle of the road fence sitter that could not make a stand.
Both with military service, and university 4 year degrees.
We both liked Mom’s food.
Big difference was I had the benefit of seeing all the screw-ups he made in life, so I corrected for most in my life.
I’m not perfect, far from it, I made mistakes, but I am smart enough to learn from the mistakes of others.
That is the trick. I’m a very smart man, 69 years old, but
I still have things to learn from everybody.
even a 4 year old.

Well, from a strictly financial viewpoint, they are right.

But we can also use that argument to get rid of illegals and the elderly, those that are chronically sick taking up large amounts of medical resources. Also socialists, as socialists make everyones cost of living go up at the same time reducing everyones quakity of life

So that means we can extinguish significant chunks of their families and themselves, using the foundation of their own argument.

Oh, and by this argument of theirs, they prove for us the unborn are people. So that strengthens our case.
