The irony of the Repubs stance is that they want these babies to be born into a world where the parents do not want them, but then they want to cut spending of every single program that would allow them to live after they were born. I wish the two parties would switch their stance on this issue, Dems go pro-life and Repubs go pro-choice. At least then it would make some sense.

I guess I missed it. The Republicans cut funding on private adoptions?Also, it's not like even adoption is a good solution. There are all sorts of problem with our adoption system and of course, this all costs taxpayer money as well.

Nice theory, when we don't have a foster care system, your theory may hold some water, but until then you are simply misinformed and the assumption that they will be adopted is false.

Quite a load for a working single mom."An estimated 400,540 children and youth were in foster care on September 30, 2011, according to the Adoption and Foster Care Analysis and Reporting System (AFCARS) preliminary report released July, 2012."

That's not to say abortion is an ideal solution, but to say "hey, just give the baby up for adoption and everything will be ok" is oversimplification at best. Originally Posted by jbravo_123
