I think they actually would PREFER that women who seek abortions die. Their policies will all but guarantee it.

They want their poor working too hard for peanuts worker pool, that is what this is about?

The lowers prop up the rich, haven't noticed how ridiculously they take advantage?

Then the rich people pass the bucks around among themselves in various ways and hide some of it?

Rinse repeat, middle and lower class people are doormats, nice go along doormats?

WOKE YET?
