If this is inflammatory I apologize in adavance. It is not meant to attack. It may be insulting but I really think it needs to be said.

If anyone's support for the right of women to have abortions centers around some type of economic reason or any other practical reasoning like poverty levels and so forth then I think you need to really do some soul searching. It is no different than saying, "Well we have too many miserable kids in foster care so let's just put them out of their misery." or "We have too many people already. Might as well put a quota on couples and then kill of any extra kids they have".

I know that is not what anyone is meaning to to say but it IS what you are basically saying. You are saying that the needs of our econmoy and community are greater than one person's right to live and breathe. You are saying that it is better to deny someone's life rather than let them grow up in poverty. Why do you get to decide that? If that is the way you feel then well... I don't know. But if you feel like people have the right to live and have a chance then you should really re-evaluate your thoughts as to why you support abortion. A woman's right to her body is a much better argument to me. And one hard to argue against.
