1. When white women die from miscarriages

because they can't get the medical help that they need or they're either forced to bring kids into the world they can't afford or die from a dangerous diy abortion or die from an illegal abortion at the hands of a medically untrained back alley butcher, maybe then they'll wake up.

3. When they're forced to face these issues directly

maybe then they'll figure it out. How many will have to die before they figure it out? I don't know.

The worst dictators of the 20th century as in Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini, believed that the government should control women's bodies and Trump and his magas are following in their footsteps..

4. Or Golden boy Gregory gets hit with a child support order at 17.

Nobody gives a shit about a few dead women and girls. But sometimes boys get caught too. My nephew got hit with an order for 8 years of back child support and his wages were garnished. You should have heard the wailing and gnashing of teeth.

I just said “Well, men SHOULD pay for the children they create “.

Nobody thinks about that part. But they will. I think Dems at this point should start pushing for tougher child support laws. Somebody has to pay for these unwanted kids. Go after the sperm donors.

because 25% of all pregnancies end in a miscarriage. The repugs will oppose strengthening child support laws. My mother went to school with a boy whose mother died from an illegal abortion done by an unqualified back alley butcher because she and her husband already had 4 children and could not afford any more. There are going to be millions of white anglo families facing this because birth control will be outlawed. What then?

children are born to poorly educated people who don’t want and can’t take care of them?

Well, drug addiction, alcohol abuse, drop out rates and crime explode. This leads to huge increases in prison populations. Prisoners are leased to corporate farms and food processing plants. No more need for immigrants to do the hard work. Prisons are overflowing! Put them to work! Bring down the price of groceries!

Too bad it will take 15-20 years, but heck no plan is perfect.

10. You raise another consequence of forced birth

Too many white women don't realize that the majority of poor people are white women with children. Too many white women also don't realize that 25% of pregnancies end in a miscarriage until it happens to them. In 22 states women can no longer get the medical help they need for treating a miscarriage because in those state, dead fetus's have more value than the lives of the white women.

We white women are going to face the same consequences of so many when they privatize social security, cut Medicare, and all the other government cutting they plan to do.

9. And we will pay for the tariffs like everyone else.

Of course families with children will pay the most. They HAVE to buy things. Kid’s clothes and toys, household goods, food, etc. The stuff they get at Wal-Mart because it’s cheap. Only it won’t be cheap anymore.
And when the old man can’t work any overtime anymore, because overtime doesn’t exist anymore….
Things are going to get hard at home.
