Not in the sense that breeding cheap labor is behind the pro-life movement.

If you are interesting in following the money, you should do some research on the multi-billion dollar abortion industry.

It sounds like a " great increasment conspiracy theory", where evil old white men take away women's rights by keeping them pregnant more, to create more capitalist slaves! I wonder how they get past the maternity leave production decrease deficit? Or recover the benefits cost? Not to mention the decreased production due to modified work duties during pregnancy?

I wonder if they also believe the 2020 election was stolen? And 9/11 was a inside job?

Right. And the "sheer number abortions" should be a bit troubling to everyone.

Especially troubling for the keeping women pregnant capitalist!

All Amazon baby parts are made in China and strictly female and the lungs have water damage.

I'm confused. This is sarcastic right?

Why does a vote have to be taken to increase baby formula? Trump would have already done it and solved it on his own months ago.

I don't disagree that Trump is so ignorant of the basic concepts of the Constitution that he might have assumed he could have directed federal funding to increase US formula supply rather than being granted the discretion to do so by the legislative branch, presumably reinforced by the cheers from his equally Constitutionally-ignorant fanbase.

Maybe as you've said before most of us don't know that the number of abortions is so high and would be surprised. But at the end of the day they wouldn't want that many unwanted pregnancies to proceed and would still be pro-choice.

In my opinion.

Are you using hyperbole as an argument or is that a thoughtful contribution?

So what are y'all doing with the baby parts that you're getting from eBay and Amazon. Asking for a friend.

Given the sheer number of abortions it's not surprising that it's a billion dollar industry. Heck, my "not for profit" employer is worth 7 billion. Health expenditures are a 4 trillion dollar a year industry. And.......

I think they use them to make vaccines. At least according to the picketers outside of the vaccine clinics.

You’re oversimplifying a bit - like saying that rainfall is behind climate. As I said before, ever-increasing profits are also dependent on ever-increasing consumption. Why do you think that American business was so hot to trot into mainland China? Where an individual falls along the worker<>consumer continuum depends largely on socio-economic class, but all provide powerful incentives for maximizing population growth.

As for following the money, why should abortion providers be any different from the rest of the healthcare industry? There was a period of time right after Roe v. Wade came down when New York State was the only place where abortions were decriminalized and available. New York abortion providers were known to be contributing to anti-choice activists in neighboring states. Good for business, doncha know …

Meanwhile, as I research that, you might be interested in researching the finances of forced pregnancy organizations. The list provided by sunlight.org of corporations funding anti-choice legislators is especially illuminating (pun intended).

A few years ago, I started researching (very lightly:) whether economies were capable of endless expansion. Of course, it was a yes/ no answer. Economic growth depends on selling a lot of crap like disposable razors, pens, cars, computers, etc. The planet now is suffering the consequences of this behavior and as a side effect of this philosophy....well, here we are. I'm not sure which will happen first; whether we will kill the planet or the planet will kill us. But I do know that we have , through the centuries, created population to supply people to do the jobs we don't want to do or as cannon fodder for wars and crusades.

Defense Production Act doesn't require legislative permission. It would have never gotten this bad under Trump. Can't wait till November for the Democrats to lose to both houses of Congress and see the Incompetent in Chief impeached and his corrupt crack head son in jail.

Sure, Jared would have been all over this, like he did with PPE.

By the sound of it the woman knew her condition in the beginning of the pregnancy. At this point ot would be her decision whether the risk was acceptable to her.

If in later pregnancy she encountered life threatening symptoms, she should discuss her options with her Dr. If the risk to her health was too great, she could have a early delivery. This is not abortion. Not unless the fetus/baby is terminated before early delivery and there is no medical indication requiring a fetus/baby to be rendered non viable before early delivery intervention for the safety of the women's health. Hopefully they could deliver the baby even if premature. The women you mentioned sounds like this was a wanted pregnancy.

Again,this is early delivery not abortion in the context we are discussing. Of course we shouldn't be "let her die"

And the fact that I reference the "Women's Health Protection Bill" and do not agree with the vaguely written details, does not mean I am in opposition to women's health.

However it is cleverly written as such so that if opposing the bill means that the opposing party doesn't care or want to protect women.

Very disingenuous, slimey political tactic.

The writer was never pregnant. She's just saying that states that will not permit abortions at any time, so some ridiculous time period like 6 weeks, would force her to risk her life or health if birth control ever failed her. I remember the old days when American women had to fly to Sweden for an abortion. And I remember the awful smell of pus that came from the DIY attempts at home. Your particular religious persuasion should have no affect on any part of my life.

Wait, baby formula is defense production?
