Abortion Industry Rides High on Huge Subsidies

Killing inconvenient babies is an extremely lucrative business, thanks to massive subsidies provided by U.S. taxpayers. These amounted to a staggering $1.5 billion from 2013 to 2015::

The Government Accountability Office, a nonpartisan watchdog agency, found that state and local governments have paid $1.5 billion to abortion providers Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA), Marie Stopes International (MSI), and International Planned Parenthood Federation.

Not all of the babies we pay to kill are fellow citizens:

MSI operates exclusively overseas and reported to the GAO that it performed 3.4 million abortions or post-abortion services in 2015 alone. Federal funding represented about 10 percent of its $391 million revenue. Taxpayer dollars accounted for 49 percent of the $1.3 billion PPFA received in 2015, while “government grants were IPPF’s primary source of funding in fiscal year 2015, accounting for 68 percent of its total income,” according to the report. Planned Parenthood’s international arm is active in 168 countries.

It isn’t just the wealth that liberals like to spread around. They spread the guilt too. Anyone who pays taxes has blood on their hands.
