Chelsea Clinton: ‘Roe’ Helped Add ‘Three and a Half Trillion Dollars to Our Economy'
Abortion has been an important economic stimulus ever since it was legalized by the 1973 Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision, Chelsea Clinton claimed at a "Rise Up for Roe" event on Saturday. At the event promoting opposition to President Donald Trump's Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, the former First Daughter of President Bill Clinton credited legalized abortion for helping add trillions of dollars to the U.S economy because women who had abortions were more inclined to enter the labor force: Thus, no matter what other things Americans may care about, everyone should appreciate the economic value of legalized abortion, Clinton said:

There’s a lot of people out there who are basically handed a 1%-type income and lifestyle in exchange for just standing around and doing nothing in particular. Such people are hardly role-models, yet I don’t exactly resent them for it, either. In the game of life, they rolled a Yahtzee on the first go-around. Hey, good for them.
But my God, *Must* they lecture the rest of us about politics/morality and all the other Meaning-Of-Life bullsh*t that pops into their mind?? Can’t they at least spare us that?

A few months ago, late one evening, we had a discussion here about those "shadow Americans" (or at least I believe that was the term used), in other words, those who had been aborted, as well as the children they would likely have had had they not been aborted. IIRC correctly, their calculated economic impact would have dwarfed anything Hubblette is claiming.....not to mention.......well, they're just lost forever to the country.

What is the economic loss based on what those 60 million aborted babies would have added to GDP? Could one of them have cured cancer? Could one of them come up with a refinement in battery technology that made electric cars desirable for all? Guess we will never know.

Yeah, I wish I could recall the thread in which we discussed that topic. And it wasn't only those aborted.....it's the issue of the children they would have produced by now as well.
Without getting into the pros and cons, rights and wrongs of abortion policy, what a chickenshyte angle to use to lobby for votes against Kavanaugh.

And by far the most of them were black. Good ole Margaret Sanger has left her legacy of racism that the Nazis would be very proud of.
