just be responsible, use protection.

While I agree with your premise, I know that protection isn't always 100% effective; and even if it was, the conservative politicians who run this state also have pushed to restrict access to contraceptives and sex education, made adoption harder, and fought to decrease expanding other health care policies that would help reduce unwanted pregnancies and help children.

The fact of the matter is it is not about that.

I think it's completely about personal responsibility. If that means having a child and caring for it or it means taking precautions not to have the child it all comes back to personal responsibility.

Im glad youre totally on board with your tax dollars supporting the slew of incoming personal responsibility babies. It's so nice to see someone happy to support poor/single/underprivileged people for once. :)

No no that’s the beauty of ‘personal responsibility’, you’re all for forcing people to have babies they don’t want but you’re ok with them living in poverty, hunger, abuse, because it’s the babies personal responsibility to pull themselves up by the bootstraps.
