14. I don't read this to outlaw abortion
It is just a word game. The Grand Old (Fascist) Party has used linguistics to their advantage ("No Child Left Behind" "Clean Air Act" etc.). The difference in the approach suggested here is that not only is it persuasive, but it is true. Lots of women have abortions because they just cannot make it financially - paying for the medical expenses and losing time from work are just the start - then you have a baby to take care of. Even if you give the child up for adoption, you still have lost time from work, etc.

Don't get me started!
