I think our view pretty well match up. I'd like to see the support for adoption and single mothers come more from private sources, but that's just my libertarian streak coming through.

While I would prefer to see the support come from private sources, I would not chafe at government funding if necessary: I find the notion of banning abortion and then essentially condemning the teenage mothers and unwanted children to lives of poverty and abuse as more than a little hypocritical. Indeed, it is irresponsible. Had there been better support for the alternatives to abortion, it would never have become so widespread as it has. In that sense, we in the "pro-life" camp have only ourselves to blame.
