No, I didn't your stupid little "that's a different topic blah blah" went off-topic, by not replying to my point that your sympathy does not really count in the law making process of taxes...it was very much on topic. Stop dodging.

tell me, whats the name of this thread?

"Public Funding for Abortion". For the second time.

Now either reply to my point, that though you might not have sympathy for them it is not a valid argument in political discourse or shut up.

what does my not having sympathy for a woman who gets knocked up by accident have to do with the public paying for her abortion? another thing, where would this public funding come from?

To the second...from the tax payers.

The first was my question, yes.

the taxpayers. CORRECT. you and me. so you wouldn't have a problem paying more taxes just so some chick you dont even know can have an abortion?

You idiot asked me the same question I asked you without answering it.

I'm not for the public funding of anything. But if you don't agree with paying for abortion then I don't see why you can agree with paying for a war in a foreign country.

again....paying for war, paying for abortion.....two different things entirely.

And even if you're pro-choice, do you actually believe that abortions should be publicly funded?!? 🤨

hey, I never said I supported the war effort, only that I sympathized for the troops that are forced to be over there.

Well, I agree in a way...though I think the arguments that people bring can be applied to both.

Because if 60% of america didn't pay for the war then thousands of soldiers would die because they didn't get the body armor they needed or the right weapons or whatnot.

It's the exact same reason there are politicians who are against the war yet vote to continue funding it. Because when you stop funding the war the only people you're hurting are the men and women out there fighting.

Oh and I don't think I should have to pay for welfare either 😐

If exceptions cannot be made for war, then why should exceptions be made for abortion?

think of the world as a huge playground, and the USA as the playground bully.

Because if we dont go to war, we lose our title as the worlds superpower. the USA is indeed the lost powerful country in the world, and to keep it this way, we must flex our might.

No, we'd just lose our title as the world's jackass.

Because war involves the entire country.

Abortion involves individuals.

all policy, foreign and domestic, involves the whole country and directly involves those...directly involved. by your logic i can say that the war doesnt involve me since i am neither a soldier nor chickenhawk draftdodging neocon politician.

you are convoluding the premise for each case to suit your point (lack of)

No, my point is that war affects everyone, even if you don't know it. If we simply stopped funding the military, what's too stop the enemies of America from attacking?

You may disagree with what the funding is being used FOR, but the funding itself is not the problem
