Abortion

I was wondering if you think it's right for our government spend our taxes on abortion. I believe that people should have a choice whether or not their tax dollars goes to companies that do abortions. If this was the case, the people want to support abortion can still support abortion, while the people who are against abortion don't have to. some people might argue that planed parenthood also does counseling, which means they should be supported. To me, this argument would be similar to saying "this hunting store sells ilegal weapons, but because they sell safety manuals, it's ok". Pro-life people are not against counseling, however, they don't believe that this is enough to overlook the fact that they do abortions. I would like this thread to be limited to the discussion of how the government should handle abortion, as we could get in endless debates on whether it's murder or not

Should Pro-life people be forced to support abortion through taxes

I don't believe Abortion should be a matter that's taken lightly.. but to be honest.. I can sleep soundly at night if too many teen girls get careless and then have abortions. I'd lose sleep if a single woman dies because a doctor couldn't abort a fetus to save her life, or if a 12 year old girl has to find out that her Rapist left a souvenir in her uterus. Weighing that against a tax increase? Take my fucking money.

I'd agree on that sentiment... but at the same time, I don't think I'd make taxes pay for it. Maybe for programs to teach sex education and to teach people NOT to rape.

Btw, a few posters have wondered, do taxes (in the US) pay for abortions?
Nope, they never have, not even by state.
