Margaret Sanger

[Cooky]

Because of Margaret Sanger, PP apologists, and liberal extremists, now every woman has to choose.

Just like the depressing old Cypress Hill song, who don't even understand the irony of their own music -"you dont know what it's like to have to choose"..? Everyone has to choose.

The Klan is often demonized for their history and ideology, when really they are just a group of like-minded people with a lot in common who like to get together for picnics and hate crimes.

....& BBQs.

We need a million immigrants every year, because we can't even produce enough children to sustain our own economy.

Funny how Sanger can talk at KKK meetings and be given a pass. But Trump gets demonized by KKK members supporting him. Crazy.

Because that was then and this is now. That was a century ago.

At the time, the KKK ran my home state of Indiana. They often held huge rallies and parades. Getting elected to state office was nearly impossible without KKK endorsement, and totally impossible if they actively opposed you.

But we've had a century of moral improvements, and things are much better now. Trump has no excuse.

We don't need to increase our population at all.
Some say we do because....
- They like cheap labor.
- They like more Democrat voters.
But our country has been economically successful with smaller populations in the past.
If it remained the same, we might be even more so.

You must be from Southern Indiana. I don't think it was ever like that around NY, where Sanger lived and operated. She's from mob country.

Regardless, we are below replacement level, and have been consistently for 30 years.

Nevertheless, comparing Sanger to Trump is ridiculous.

OK with me.
It would reduce the cost of living.

They'll just increase immigration levels so that will never happen. In the meantime, our neighbors will keep pumping them out for us.

...Same for Europe, which is in even worse shape.

Some day, we can be a lost civilization, just like the ancient Egyptians.

That's a problem with our economic system, not with the falling birthrates, which are a good thing. Free market capitalism expects unlimited growth and that's not based on reality.

I favor stronger border controls.

We can change our expectations.
Unlimited growth is not sustainable.

With our propensity towards rapaciousness, environmental destruction, weapons technology, etc.,
We'll probably be the reason for the loss of civilization.

Unfortunately, it's the educated who are mainly getting the abortions, and not having children -an unnatural, occurance that may negatively impact our evolutionary future.

We could be turning back the clock.

Tell that to the non-American immigrants, who feel entitled to our economy.

What makes you think they're getting abortions?
Educated people with access to birth control don't get abortions very often. They prevent the pregnancies from starting in the first place.
Elective abortions are much more commonly the result of irresponsible people who don't use the widely available and sophisticated methods of birth control. Poorly educated people who find access difficult getting jammed up.

No, it's mostly poor women who get abortions: Abortion rates by income

Upper class women have access to more birth control options than poor women.

That's a good point, Tom. I actually edited that post. Thanks for pointing that out.
