Chelsea Clinton: ‘Roe’ Helped Add ‘Three and a Half Trillion Dollars to Our Economy’
cnsnews.com ^ | 8/13/2018 | Craig Bannister

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 you’ve expressed so beautifully, will be."

Another piece of evidence that bolsters my claim that abortion is the most selfish act in All of God’s creation.

Using her logic, people in nursing homes should be put to sleep.

The Clintons are evil incarnate.

No doubt she prescribes to the Joseph Stalin’s school of nation building.

What’s a few million bodies here or there when you’re in a “class struggle” against the Capitalists.

The “Proletariat” will understand as we crush their skulls...

And the holocaust added billions to the German economy! Heck, someone had to build those trains and concentration camps and gas chambers! Not to mention employment for sadistic sociopaths who would otherwise not have jobs guarding and murdering the enslaved.

Her number is absurd. Look at the lost contributions to GDP of the aborted helpless souls:

Aborted: 50,000,000
Avg GDP: 57,467
Working years, 20-65: 45
Total Lost GDP: 1.293E+14. (129,300,277,500,000)

If I’m not mistaken, that is 129 trillion dollars. So we take away 129 trillion and “inject” 3 trillion. Sounds like a losing proposition to me.

But numbers are overwhelmed by the pure evil monstrosity the libs have pushed onto us. You cannot quantify the sheer evil they have perpetrated in our beloved country.

And this is yet another demonstration of the abject ignorance of this woman.

She is beyond stupid....her degrees in whatever are worthless. They are the result of people unwilling to force academic rigor out of fear of being Arkancided. Imagine giving Chelsea anything less than an “A” for her coursework? What would be the potential consequences for your life/career if you gave her anything less than stellar grades?

Look at her performance at NBC (basically a gift), or the performance of her husband’s hedge fund (another gift). Had that hedge fund had real investors as opposed to democRAT supporters Mezvinski would be in jail. FINRA should have revoked his securities registrations, and the SEC should have referred the entire enterprise to the Federal Courts for disposition and sentencing.

And yet we are treated to another display of total stupidity of Chelsea Clinton.

Ms Clinton is unsurprisingly overlooking economic growth from raising children imo.

Clinton is also overlooking shrinking Democratic voter pool as consequence of career Democratic politicians unthinkingly promising unconstitutional federal funding for murder of future Democratic voters for last several decades in order to get themselves reelected.

Also consider that dirty trade deals and unconstitutional federal taxes by the corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification uniparty Congress over the last 70+ years have arguable canceled any positive results of the economic stimulation of the murder of unborn children industry.

"Murdering your children makes good economic sense."

In the eyes of the murdering Clinton's it would seem so? And how much you wanna bet she got big applause from the baby murdering cabal at the event?

Web Hubbell's daughter is just about as good looking as he is.

“Jane, you ignorant Slut” from Saturday Night Live. That says it all about that Clinton Moron. Economics was never her strong suit to say the least.

Click the link it is funny as hell.

Anyone who justifies child murder with economics has lost all perception of how truly sick he or she is. It doesn't even matter that the economics is false and a bold face lie. Just the act of using money to justify murder is, in a word, "evil". So evil! And I fear she has consumed too much kool-aid to even comprehend how in the wrong she is. We are all guilty of sin, and I fear facing the Lord while in my own shoes. But nooo way do I want to face the Lord in her shoes.
