Startling Stats on What Planned Parenthood is Doing Today
4/17/02
Cincinnati, OH Every day of the year. Planned Parenthood persuades 540 women to agree to let them kill their unborn babies. If you or someone you know thinks that Planned Parenthood is a good organization that helps poor married couples space the births of their children - nothing could be further from the truth. Planned Parenthood (PP) is the leading promoter and the largest single provider of abortions in our country.
Here are some other facts you may not know about this prominent member of the abortion industry:
In 2000 PP took in a record $69 million by performing abortions - one-third of their total income.
For every adoption referral, they aborted 79 babies.
Since 1995 the number of PP abortions has increased a whopping 41%.
As of 1977 PP has killed over 3 million unborn babies.
From 1985 through 2000, PP has received nearly 2.2 billion tax dollars.
PP president, Gloria Feldt, receives a salary of $324,217 a year.

They claim the abortion unit of PP is completely separate and this is how they continue to receive funding.
Oh wait a minute, they also get paid for all their "Good Deeds".
What a surprise.
