Few issues speak more clearly about the immorality of the pro-choice mentality than the argument that abortion should be used to save us tax money.  Imagine that the two-year-old daughter of a family on welfare fell into an abandoned well.  Authorities calculate that since a funeral is cheaper than a rescue, and since this little girl might be on welfare for the rest of her life, the financially sound thing to do is just flood the well with water.  Once the child floats to the top, the coroner can scoop up her body, have it buried, and the taxpayers will have saved a bundle.  That is obviously a monstrous idea, but it is no more so than telling poor women that if they will kill their children to save us money, we’ll pay the killer. 

Now if America is serious about having a social policy based on the philosophy that it’s cheaper to execute a child than support one, then we should start encouraging families on welfare to not only kill their unborn children, but their born children as well.  Remember, the guiding principle here is not morality but saving money.  If we are willing to ignore the biological fact that their unborn children are living human beings, why should we care that their born children are living human beings?
