As Long As Abortion Is Legal We Should Feed Aborted Fetuses to the World's Poor

"We then must consider that there would be a massive cost to transporting the abortion food to the starving, which they likely can't afford, or they wouldn't be starving. " Whether or not they can afford it is irrelevant. We're talking about "charity". They don't have to pay a penny. "Another issue that we find, is that abortions happen at different stages of pregnancy, and so the fetuses can come in a wide veriety of sizes. If they are not all the same size, then the machinery to process them has to have additional features, which can cost additional money. Adding more to the cost. " The same can be said of other animals that are processed for their meats. They are not all the same size either. For example, cows. Some cows are heavier or taller, but they are still able to build machinery for processing them. Considering that a fetus is quite smaller than a cow the machinery would likewise be smaller, and so would likely cost less to build than the machinery used to process cows. "My opponent suggests that the remaining fetus food can be sold to people to offset the costs of feeding the hungry. Unfortunately, I don't have any recent survey data, however I'll guess that most people will choose to pass over the fetus food for something else. And considering that they are off setting the costs of others, that only raises their costs, making it even easier to just say no. " Considering there are only 126,000 fetuses a day this only requires a small market of consumers. Some people get drawn into things by the allure of the forbidden. Even though this will be legal it will still have the allure of the forbidden, because its essentially "human meat" and that is considered taboo. Still some people will want to try it out of curiosity, and some of those people will like how it tastes. Only a very tiny portion of the world population has to actually be interested in eating fetus to be able to sell it. "A far wiser use of aborted fetuses then fetus food, is for stem cell research. " The problem here is that by the time an abortion is performed much of the fetus has already developed. That is to say many of those "stem cells" have turned into regular cells that would be useless in stem cell research. A much wiser use of stem cell research would be to look at embryos that weren't used at IVF clinics. Embryos have plenty of stem cells. Fetuses have already begun developing their organs. "This research can help find cures for diseases that currently plague our lives, such as cancer and AIDS, along with spinal and brain damage. These benefits can provide their own income as medicine and procedures are done. That money, can then be used to off set the costs of sending REAL food to the starving" The problem with this argument is it takes too much time. My solution can be put to work right away. We have no idea how long stem cell research is going to take. As for the "income" received how are we to make sure that income(which would go to the doctors performing the procedures) goes to sending food to the starving? The only way I can think of is a tax increase and voters are unlikely to find that very palatable. Furthermore, when we already have enough stem cells in embryos sitting in IVF clinics throughout the country and can have adequate stem cell research this way why not use aborted fetuses to take care of another problem, World Hunger.
