There is a demand for abortions beyond 20 weeks- The Gosnell case makes this argument. He could barely meet the demand...
Making abortions illegal only means that people like him will thrive, and that women will die or be maimed for life.
I find it ironic that all the "pro-life" politicians are the same ones who are against free health insurance for children...raising SNAP benefits...welfare in general, raising minimum wage, affordable healthcare, government assistance with childcare, Section 8 housing, and lowering the interest rate on student loans. Effectively all the things that help someone, economically, decide to HAVE an abortion. If you care about fetuses, why not children? Why stop programs like Head Start? Why underfund urban districts? You want the baby born, but if it has no access to healthcare two years down the road, that's okay?!
Who do you think is having all these abortions, women who are one semester away from a degree in a high-paying field, with a committed fiancé? No, it's poor women who, along who their children, would greatly benefit from the so called "socialist" programs they love to hate.
And how about just not getting pregnant at all? Wait- we continue to cut access and funding to birth control for low-income women. So that's not going to happen...
Ok. That's all.
