All any government would have to do (city, county, state, national) is to charge a Trillion dollar tax for an abortion (for each abortion you have to fork over a Trilion dollars).

You could actually take a page out of the liberal playbook and calculate the "lifetime loss of tax revenue" from the abortion. Average citizen pays $2000 / year for 40 years. $80,000 tax to compensate for the loss.

WOW. That's a good idea. The left seems "so concerned" about costs to the taxpayers lately, so much they demonize tobacco and sugar.
This is a god idea. The taxpayers of America are carring this tax burden. Someone should make up the difference, aye?

How many of those aborted would actually be tax comsumers, getting more services and paying little or no taxes? Given the disproportionate amount of poor getting abortion, any calculation would likely show that no difference or even a savings.

The only way to fight abortion is to bring about a recognition that all life is precious, no matter now young or small.
