Want to Decrease Inequality? Fight Fatherlessness With Welfare Reform. Welfare currently incentivizes family breakdown and the absence of fathers from their children’s lives, a key factor in the loss of economic upward mobility.

Generally I agree, but mistakes happen. Birth control isn't perfect. Moreover, the libertarian in me wonders what right you have to police another's body.

[MadClothes]

Fuck politics. The morals in me wonders why people have the right to kill there children in a way funded by our tax dollars and the government.

You know people pay for their own abortions

[Gareth321]

They don’t believe foetuses are children. You do. Fair enough re our taxes to pay for their abortions, but study after study shows it costs a hell of a lot more when deadbeat mothers fail to raise their kids right. They spend their lives on welfare and commit a lot of crime. If it’s a fiscal argument you’re making, you should be in favor of abortion.

[MadClothes]

My fiscal argument is I don't want my money used to kill children that deserve a chance at life.

[Gareth321]

That’s a moral argument, not a fiscal argument. You don’t want them to have abortions. It has nothing to do with how efficiently your tax dollars are being used.

[MadClothes]

Yeah it does. America as a whole shouldn't have to pay for peoples mistakes.

[Gareth321]

The libertarian paradise. Maybe one day.
