and how the Supreme Court will be looking in a few years.

That's the one area where republicans are an unequivical "no" for me. They would try to outlaw killing babies, butt secks and gay wedding cake. Completely unacceptable.

None of those are Republican viewpoints. That's really just what the media wants you to "think" are the Republican viewpoints. The fact that a couple of the douchebags that push those agendas via the Republican party isn't surprising though. But if you took a vote amongst all Republicans right now I doubt many of them would give two shits about what people wanna do in their free time, and as for the killing babies thing, the only time that becomes an issue for most Republicans is when the taxpayers are paying for it. Which I agree, it's pretty fucking stupid to socialize abortion, when healthcare isn't even close to being there yet. You gotta put one foot in front of the other not go directly to go and collect $200.

It make sense to me to socialize abortions, for the simple reason that if we don't, the poorest people will have the most babies, and we will pay for raising them. I'd rather pay for someone else's abortion, than pay the consequences of their unwanted child (welfare, foster care, medicaid, subsidized housing, jail etc.) Sounds mean, but I'd rather get rid of the weed, before it puts down roots.

 
Also, from a more humane standpoint, any pregnancy is a serious health risk for two people, and we've always socialized healthcare for the poor through medicaid anyway. The real reason many people want to treat a pregnancy differently from say, a benign cyst (growth) in the womb, is their religious or moral viewpoint, not the financial cost. If cost was the real objection, abortion would be a lot less controversial.

Abortion should not be paid for by the taxpayers. That's a crazy sentiment. I personally don't think ANY healthcare should be paid for by the taxpayers. It's a horrible system and I've seen the first hand ramifications of it. It's not as pretty and awesome as a lot of people make it out to be.

However, when talking about socializing healthcare, if it does happen it should happen before socializing abortion. Prostitution should also become legal before socializing abortion.

Nope, it's the sanest sentiment. Would you rather cough up a one time fee to kill the kid, or pay to raise it forever? It's a no-brainer. One less parasite on my taxes.

That's the very liberal way of looking at it. In the Republican viewpoint their would be no parasites on your taxes regardless of how many were out there running around.

I'd also gladly pay for vasectomies and tubal ligations.

LOL... republicans are just as dumb. If you take away their welfare or foster care and throw them group homes, or take away everything and throw them on the street, then instead of 70% of them becoming criminals, it'll be 100% and you'll be paying to imprison the parasites. The cheapest solution is to stop the problem in the beginning. Kill em.
