Well if you are going with that logic...let me go with this logic as my rebuttal.
18 years of $500 per month welfare = $108,000
Age 18 then he/she becomes a tax paying citizen. Since the average person makes $48k per year and the federal tax one pays in the US is 12.6% thats $6k per year for 40 years = $240,000+ in federal taxes. So obviously it pays in the long run to keep these future taxpayers around.
Lets also not forget all the local sales taxes this citizen will pay over the course of his life, the property taxes he will pay when/if he buys a house, and also try to remember...when you abort one of these little bastards, it cuts into your future social security money...thats right...the money you paid in all your life and because they were aborted...No Social security for you!
After a few weeks of coherent posts, I thought that you might have turned the corner...but this is absolute bullshit.
Do you really believe that the majority of children that spend 18 years on welfare go on to productive "tax paying" lives? Seriously, the odds are better that if they spent the first 18 years as someone's "welfare check", they'll more than likely be a taxpayer drain for the next 40-50-60 years as well.
Why don't you put together a "Scenario B" and tell us what the cost of supporting someone from cradle to grave will run us?

Let me respond with this...
Do you really believe that 100% of people that get abortions would be on welfare if they didnt get abortions? Because I've met plenty of irresponsible people that all of a sudden got jobs when they had a kid and became responsible. And the fact that someone is thinking so far ahead (I.E. if they have a kid they will have less money in the future) indicates at least a reasonable amount of responsibility. That being said, that person likely works and nothing will change. Sure a few might hit hard times and go on welfare, but I can tell you right now,I'm 100% positive that its not 100% of people that get abortions suddenly go on welfare for the "Free" money.
So the question is...how many that have abortions would go on welfare and of those that have kids, what percentage of those will live on welfare later in life?
As I'm writing this I just looked up welfare and apparently one can only receive it for 5 years( I didnt know that and apparently neither did most of the people on this post, so we learn something new everyday) So I guess your case for abortion just went out the window. 5 years of a free ride and they still need to work & pay taxes to survive the next 35 years of their adult working life....
Just when the biblical equivalent of not only Satan, but the most repulsive life form on planet, according to most of the rightie here, and the bible of course, said the stupidest thing ever, he outdoes himself. I keep telling you, you're better than this. Just try a little harder to cut cord from your most hated enemies, the GOP supporters.
