abortion ban
i wonder what the cost of an abortion ban would be. uncomplicated births cost about $8,000. add the gdp cost because mom isn't working for the next 18 years. some of the kids will be wards of the state. add that cost. enforcing the ban will cost money. add that. more people leads to less goods per person leads to less happiness leads to more crime. what does that cost? imagine this: britney tells cletus she's preggers. cletus freaks. kills her. how do we add that cost? an illegal and unsafe abortion can kill you. what cost? parents treating a kid like he's some unwanted piece of shit they would have rather trashed than kept. what cost?
