bortion has been an important economic stimulus ever since it was legalized by the 1973 Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision, Chelsea Clinton claimed at a "Rise Up for Roe" event on Saturday.
At the event promoting opposition to President Donald Trump's Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, the former First Daughter of President Bill Clinton credited legalized abortion for helping add trillions of dollars to the U.S economy because women who had abortions were more inclined to enter the labor force:
"Whether you fundamentally care about reproductive rights and access right, because these are not the same thing, if you care about social justice or economic justice, agency you have to care about this.
"It is not a disconnected fact to address this t-shirt of 1973 that American women entering the labor force from 1973 to 2009 added three and a half trillion dollars to our economy. Right?
"The net, new entrance of women that is not disconnected from the fact that Roe became the law of the land in January of 1973."
Thus, no matter what other things Americans may care about, everyone should appreciate the economic value of legalized abortion, Clinton said:
"So, I think, whatever it is that people say they care about, I think that you can connect to this issue.
"Of course, I would hope that they would care about our equal rights and dignity to make our own choices but, if that is not sufficiently persuasive, hopefully, come some of these other arguments that youve expressed so beautifully, will be."

Of course, I’m sure more than 3.5 trillion dollars was SUBTRACTED from the economy due to 55 million aborted people being UNABLE to enter the workforce.
If Roe v. Wade were a fast food chain, it would go something like this:
McRoe’s (est. 1973): over 55 million killed.
Explain Barbara Boxer, Hank Johnson, Maxine, and a plethora of other dumbass Democrats then.
It’s highly conceivable that in the millions of deaths attributable to Roe, the scientist who would have cured HIV/AIDS was aborted.
What does this homophobic bimbo think about that?
