If conservatives want to rail against abortions, why do I hear about adoption and foster care being so crap? They should be funneling money into programs that take care of single mothers, poor families, and orphaned children, but there's some hipocracy going on.
Well in my opinion it is a bad sign that someone is aborting because "there is no money to raise kids" - I think that's a symptom that something is wrong and the State should address it, because in this particular case abortion is really not because "I don't want this kid" but because "I can't have this kid right now".
I'm not going to comment on the first sentence since there are many reasons to abort - i.e. Some people don't want kids or don't want more than a certain number of kids, or are not ready yet psychologically to have kids.
