The conservatives need the babies alive so they can be sent overseas to be killed. It's the new american way.

Disgusting pigs. All of em.

They need wage slaves even more so.

This really is the trajectory for most unwanted children.

No heritable resources, a fuck ton of trauma, and unaffordable healthcare leads to lifelong difficulties finding and retaining work with no hope of mental health care to fix the central issue.

Nah, they want to reduce the number of poor and non-white people because they hate them. They have no need to send them overseas to be killed on profitable wars. They have drones for that now.
