With your amazing rationale, can you please tell us why your argument cannot be used against people outside the womb? Maybe retarded kids or the homeless or "the poor". I mean isn't relieving them of their misery a "good reason"?
Most people who have posted have no qualms about repealing all welfare laws (basically starving kids to death because their parents are too inept to take care of them), but putting an unwanted child out of its potential misery is a tear-jerker?
You people need to stick to one line of thought. All of this hypocritical thinking is not healthy for the mind.
Damn, this coming from the most schizophrenic poster on EF.
Here's your reason: removing welfare from society does not equate to starvation, for man has choice, free-will. When his source of income is removed he WILL make a quick decision on how to remedy his situation, say get a job. And why does he do this? Because he wishes to LIVE. His primary urge in life is to extend his life to the next day and the next and so on.
Will all people accomplish this? No. But the lack of welfare does not prohibit him from living, for humans have compassion and there are organizations which deal with the needy.
I am sure you will say that this only applies to the adults and not the children, but as we all know, the parents are the care-takers of the children and their choice to care for the children is not based on their income so much as their love of their children, for even those who exist on our social support, every day kill their children in horrible manners. This goes for middle class and rich. As you stated, those "..too inept to take care of them." How does money aid them? If you don't care to take care of your children, what will money do? Buy you love? Many a poor person took care of their children and gave them a good upbringing, for social status does not make a good person or a good life.
Abortion on the other hand allows for no recourse of action for the child. Once you are dead, you don't get a second chance. Your end has been forced upon you with no ability to prevent this occurance. Starvation allows many opportunities for correction.
