(408 posts)29. I know you were being sarcastic but there really are second hand dangers and consequences
from many pregnancy's. Every time someone has a child and can't afford to feed it, me, the taxpayer picks up the tab.The more this happens the more dangerous the world gets. Sometimes people feel forced into stealing and breaking into other peoples homes to feed their kids. That eventually gets picked up by the taxpayer. Who pays for the delivery for the uninsured? Again the taxpayer. These are consequences that costs me dearly every year.
Am I complaining about paying for all of this... NO, but at the same time we're paying for people who choose to have children they can't feed, you guys are complaining about someone who chooses to smoke. Which costs you more?

I'm a Dem and I don't care what you do with your body as long as it doesn't harm others.

As Jennifer Granholm wrote in the Huffington Post a while back, they are Pro-BIRTH, that's it.

Pro-"lifers" won't be content until the United States of America becomes the Republic of Gilead.
