What's more important? Stopping Abortion or stopping poverty?

I must apologise, it was merely a typo. You really shouldn't think that a such term could apply to you.

As for treating people with respect, it helps if you are deserving of respect. You are not, so I don't.

Hack Benjamin> Sorry, people don't pay for abortions in DK.
And wouldn't a capitalist state BENEFIt more from too many poor workers to keep wages down through high unemployment?

For the Capitalist thing: Not necessarily...

And how is Michael Moore more of an American than Bush?

Stopping poverty is obviously the crucial matter. It is the issue that gives rise to all subsidiary issues.

More American? I don't know about that.....he's a lot more FATTER and UGLIER than Bush....yeah, I would agree with that.

There's more of him.

Poverty. But it is crucial that both matters be dealt with regardless of which is more imoprtant.

Good point.

Neither is going away anytime soon. Abortion can be made illegal but that won't stop it, it will only make it more dangerous for women seeking it. As for poverty, capitalism by nature creats as much poverty as it does wealth. Besides, some people choose to be poor, most homeless people, in the US anyway, are that way because they choose to be.

It's just me... To me a true patriot is someone who loves his contry and is NOT afraid to point out things that needs to change. i have a hard time seeing how attractiveness and size matters there, but if you find Bush attractive... ???
I'm just European 🙂

So am I, if I remember correctly.

Still, how can someone be a "truer" American than another? Now if Bush was Italian, I suppose that would have some sort of meaning to it, but since they are both citizens of teh United States it seems rather pointless.

Also, for your Arguement I wouldn't say that Michawel Moore loves his country much more, I think they both use their patriotism for their own goals, and just because I might agree more with Moores views doesn't make him a better American.

I'm against both of them... Stopping poverty is a nice idea but will in fact ruin human society as we know it... Making the world more prosperous in all places is a nice idea though, and probably an okay thing to do. But we must always have poor people simple as that.

I'm also pro-choice, so I don'tthink stopping abortian is a good thing either. So making poor communities a bit richer, or at least giving them schools water food healthcare and a possible future ranks way higher in my lists.

no he didn't say that, he said society, as we know it, will always have and might very well need, poor people.

It's Bullshit to say that Micahel Moore, OR Bush is more OR less American. Just because one was elected president doen't imply more loyalty. Both are just as American as the other. I suppose it should be considered that "American" implies loyalty. Nothing could be further from the truth, in either case.

I figured it was a good time to make this topic considering the narrowness of the Abortion thread. Do you agree that these two issues are important? Is one more important than the other? Are they equally important?

As a socially responsible societydo we place top much emphasis on certain topics while altogether ignoring others? Discuss.
