#1 SCOTUS' Medicaid ruling lays roadmap for states nationwide to defund Planned Parenthood

#2 ...The vast majority of South Carolinians are perfectly happy with this. Some - including my wife - are furious.

I understand the foundation of their argument; that women will lose access to health care. At the bottom line, this is true.

But.

There are 2 PP clinics in SC, one here in Columbia and one in Charleston. The claim that women out in the boondocks will be unable to get health care is not at all accurate, there are many, many clinics out there, run and or supported by the big hospitals in the state. The crux of the matter is that they won't be able to get SC-paid for abortions.

Secondly, the money that goes to PP doesn't go to improving that health care; it goes back to Democratic politicians. Without exception. That is actually MY biggest complaint - I made it clear to my wife that if PP stopped all political donations, I'll write them a check and walk it down to the office myself. PP at bottom is a money laundering scheme that provides abortions and contraceptives on the side.

And finally - and full disclosure: I skipped this part of the discussion - PPs roots are in the frankly eugenicist beliefs of its founder, Margaret Sanger. Look up her statements on who should and should not be allowed to reproduce.

#3 Planned Parenthood is in the business of killing babies. It provides some healthcare as well in the same way that a deli also sells mustard. You can get mustard at the grocery store and you can get healthcare elsewhere. Healthcare and killing are not something that you want to get at the same establishment in the first place. Nobody would drop their kids off at a childcare center that is also an adult bookstore. There is an inherent incompatibility to Planned Parenthoos and healthcare.

#5 This is what those super rich Progressives should be funding instead of Black Bloc/Antifa protests and vote fraud. There is no need to force objecting taxpayers to subsidize abortions.
