If they are tired of the "leaches on society" then one would think that they would be fine with the poor killing off their government babies. Making everyone have a baby (especially poor) only puts a bigger drain on society when they turn to the government for help. |
I would imagine they think you shouldn't kill your kids and you also shouldn't be a leech on society. Seems easy enough to understand.
But I don't understand how Democrats can be pro-choice when they want a command economy and all sorts of entitlement programs. How does that square with allowing people to terminate future workers and taxpayers willy-nilly? The difference between having 4 workers per beneficiary and 2 per beneficiary can easily be the difference between solvency and insolvency. Of course, if the programs rely on a constantly expanding population, then that is the very definition of a pyramid scheme.
