If they want to overturn Roe v Wade, shouldn't post Roe v Wade kids be as expensive for the govt

2. From birth to emancipation, each extra child adds an est. $17K to local and state budgets too.

These fiscal conservatives will freak when the bill comes in. If 10K extra births occur in a state, each year, for 18 years, you're looking at an increase to state and local budgets of over $3 Billion per year! You have things such as medical, food, housing, tax deductions and most expensive of all, education & school transportation.

Right now, there is a near equilibrium between birth and death rates, keeping taxes flat. Births are relatively flat.

The elimination of abortion services will cause a massive spike in birth rates in each state, and that will decimate state budgets in a couple of decades. I believe Rick Perry cut back abortion in Texas for less than a year and that led to over 7K extra births, and he backed off on those restrictions--because it doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize where that was going. We're talking Gov. Oops realized it... so it has to be pretty obvious.


Now: Add it the cost of foster care and stipends and you will see this spike closer to $25K or more per year.

I'll give you a classic Teabagger response to what I am describing:

I moved back to my hometown with four kids. A local teabagger, who drives around with RW radio blaring in his car, came up to me and started to give me shit for raising his taxes by moving four kids into our development, since it will drive up education costs for the town. Mind you, I never met this fucker before, and he just came up to me to give me shit about living.
