I have to ask exactly what service the government is providing me by banning abortion

It's not about you, it's the child you want to kill.

"If I am, for example, an adult Republican woman of sound mind, I have to ask exactly what service the government is providing me by banning abortion. I already have the power to keep myself from having an abortion. When the government employs people to stop abortion, it is taking my tax dollars but providing me with no useful service in return."

Since I am an adult Republican woman, I'll say it in my own words. "When the government takes my money and subsidizes clinics and doctors who I believe are committing murder, it is providing me with the sick knowledge that I am being forced to support the unsupportable."

I guess by banning abortion the government allows you to pay taxes to support unmarried mothers without WHINING ABOUT IT (as you do all the time, eh? *S*)

I'm being sarcastic here. As a 30 year old unmarried Catholic woman, I don't ever plan to have an abortion (no matter what the circumstances)..but then again, I can afford to bring up a child on my own. I'm not sure how many others can make the moral choice, without my luxury. And I'm not confident about how many pro-Lifers are moral people supporting the children they have already (pre-divorce etc) or the ones their wives don't know about. Eh? i would never have an abortion. I happily, am in the financial position, never to have to.
