Although some individuals will remain celibate until marriage, most people will not. When a woman gets pregnant and doesn't have the financial resources to care for the child, the rest of us pay for that child. The alternative is to let the child grow up in poverty which only perpetuates a very vicious cycle. In the long run, it makes financial sense to provide the mother with daycare so she can work and training so that she can find better paying employment. She can move off of welfare and out of dependency. That is a win/win for everyone
The reason that Chad doesn't want to provide such services, even though they would prevent abortions by giving women more choices, is because he views sex before marriage as 'sinful' and worse than abortion. Like I wrote before, his goal isn't to protect fetuses but to make certain he knows which women to shame
I agree, but his story is still bullshit even on his terms.
