I"m Pro-choice, tell me why you aren"t

The pro life ones provide evidence. The pro choice ones provide evidence that I hope I can refute. If your argument is dependency, then a 4 year old child is dependant on their parents for survival. Moreover, people on welfare are dependant on productive people without their consent. Does this justify a painless death sentence for them? No. They should get a job, but I digress. You know how I said most kids leave the system within 4 years? What if they arrived when they were 15? If they did this, then they possibly didn"t have enough time to get adopted. Also, your cite does not tate 20,000 age out of the system. "https://boothkoskoff.com....... " In less than 2 years: "276 cases of foster abuse in the state of California. However, an investigation by the Los Angeles Times uncovered that the state underreported foster abuse cases to meet the national standard of 0.32%..". 276/60,000 means that the abuse rate is around 4 per 1000. Although I empathize with virtually all victims of abuse, this is not super common. http://www.who.int... states that 1/13 people report being abused as a child. This is about 77 per 1000. You are disproportionately LESS likely to be abused as a foster kid then you are as a conventional kid. Although I empathize with the abused, the rate is very rare and examples do not represent the mainstream. I imagine adoption agencies make themselves look bad so people sympathize with them and are more likely to adopt and treat the child well. I did not see the word "Opioid" in the article once so I don"t think the article talks about it. People recover from pain and pain is often short term. Just as slaves got separated from their families when sold, although it was bad, their emotions recovered and they lived with it. Similarly, foster kids naturally toughen up and this helps them in the future since they now have a metaphorical tough skin. "you still would be required to carry the pregnancy for 9 months & birth it." It"s why people discourage recreational sex. Consequences like that come from premarital sex which is why it is discouraged and should be prohibited. While it is bad women have to endure this, it is merely a lesser evil compared to innocent life being taken. Women could continue high school, college, or their job, if they set the kid up for adoption. "Why should someone be forced to risk their life" It"s a "risk". You have a higher chance of dying from living in some cities then you do from pregnancy. "I have a right to bodily autonomy therefore I have the right to choose if I want to put my body through that or take those risks,no one is required to give blood, or a kidney transplant even if that results in the death of the person needing one." One relevant difference is you did not voluntarily cause the event to happen (in most situations). If someone ran you over for drunk driving, and you need their kidney to save your life, they should be required to give a kidney, since they caused the event to happen from a mistake they made. Although https://news.gallup.com... states that only 19% of the US population is pro life in all situations, it also states that: -The 2 most pro life categories combined get 55% of the opinion vs 42% of the 2 leftist most opinions on the pro choice side. -The site say that the pro lifers tend to be more moderate in their beliefs, whereas pro choicers tend to be more radical. -It also states that many "pro choice" people only support abortion in the event of rape, to save the mother"s life, or incest, or if the fetus is messed up (RSIF). RSIF abortions make up less than 10% of abortions. People who who support this position in essence are 10% pro choice and 90% pro life, and this is close to the middle of the abortion spectrum. "Should women who are addicts and admit won"t quit be banned from abortion? The rate of babies born addicted to drugs has quadrupled in the last two decades" I don"t think this is due to drugs. It might be due to how society has gotten more drug involved. "IUDs can cost over $1,000 without insurance" They can get insurance or they can save the money themselves. Once they save the money, the feeling of sex would feel better since people feel better about things they work for instead of things just given to them. It"s harder to get information, but they find a way to measure it. "50% of pregnancies result in a miscarriage in the first trimester, should they be charged with manslaughter in the same way accidentally killing a person is charged?" I don"t believe in punishing genuinely accidental killings, since they"re genuine accidents. I don"t even think it"s a crime to accidentally shoot someone if it was a genuine accident. I also don"t believe this is at 50% unless there is a cite. "And I don"t understand the logic of being pro-life and supporting the death penalty" Because the baby is innocent and a murderer is not. I could say why are people against the death penalty for being a murderer, yet they support the death penalty just for not being wanted? Even if you don"t believe that a fetus is a person, you would want them to be alive if they were wanted. So you are essentially giving the fetus the death sentence for not being wanted by the mother. "The judicial system is incredibly flawed. A woman could be wrongfully convicted or tried as a criminal for a miscarriage." The burden of proof is on the prosecution. "El Salvador had abortions completely illegal and jails women for getting them, which is what you want." I advocate for something more extreme than jail because of ideological consistency. If only comes into effect once abortion becomes illegal and people would be informed of the punishment. Once this happens, examples would be made, and people would be more sexually responsible and more sexually safer as a whole. More lives would be saved in the long term. "China and North Korea have forced abortions." China at least doesn"t have them anymore. They ditched their One child policy in 2016(https://en.wikipedia.org...). "How will that be monitored?" The same way any other law is enforced. "How are they gonna pay for that?" If they can"t afford the fine, they can go to jail for about 5 weeks. "put people with miscarriages on trial costing us a bunch of tax-payer dollars." The abortion rate after Roe V Wade in the short term was about 4x as high as it was before Roe V Wade. The current abortion rate is 12 per 1000 women (https://en.wikipedia.org...). Banning abortion while keeping and expanding conception control will bring this down to 3 per 1000 and falling. If 3 per 1000 women get trial cases of $200,000 each, as hefty as that would be, it would cost the average taxpayer about $300 a year, less than a dollar a day. "Meanwhile, have to open more foster cares for all these children who"s parents are in jail." Not necessarily. The husband could marry someone else and then the kids won"t have to go into the foster care. "This is the material made for a dystopian novel." It helps the baby who already often suffers a dystopia because their life is taken from them. It does not create a dystopia. It creates a world relatively free from abortions and STDs from the lack of premarital sex. "until you pro-lifers decide to carry our unwanted fetuses in your own womb, I will decide what to do with my body." Many pro lifers do get pregnant and https://www.realclearpolitics.com... states that women are about as likely to be pro life as men are.
