The left is all about the children.....just not YOUR children.

At any given time, in the US, there are approximately 400,000 “children” in foster care…..taken from parents by the state, or surrendered to the state by the parents.  The annual cost to the state is around $26,000 per foster child.  Of that 400,000 number, approximately 10% of those children have been in the system for five or more years.  In 2014, the latest statistics I could find, there were 652,639 abortions.  Those two figures alone represent over a million children in this nation, either murdered in the womb, or otherwise “separated” from the parents.

Before I continue, because you know I am, I concede that SOME abortions are necessary.  I do NOT concede that we throw all babies out that we want to throw out because SOME are medically necessary.  I also concede that, since the 60’s, in this nation, there is a measurable shitload of people that have NO business spawning children, making foster care a better option…….but in both cases, abortion and foster care, those solutions aren’t; they merely address the symptom and not the problem.

Moving along.

Have you ever seen…ever, in this country, anyone take to the streets protesting any states Child Protective Services or other similarly named government entity in charge of taking and placing children away from their parents?  Anyone?  Bueller?  Has anyone ever said that a convicted person should not go to jail because he or she has kids?  Has anyone tried to bring the dead back to life to cover down on orphans?  No, it has never happened….even though there are 288,000 more children in child protective coverage right now, than have ever been separated from their parents for illegally crossing the border…and you  DO hear some fairly significant horror stories out of that system from time to time…..dwarfing anything out of the border detainment.

In the case of abortion, we don’t even have the discussion.  The left is going to ride, as a religious tenet, entitlements and abortion until our nation is nothing but a bunch of poverty riddled dead embryos’.  In terms of abortion, there are almost 653,000 people a year that we have not only separated from parents, but from LIFE….

And yet, nothing is so tragic for the left than the plight of the children of law breakers crossing our border.

Thus, like abortion and child protective services…..rather than treat the problem, treat the symptom.  In this case the symptom is children separated from illegal border crossers……so the fix must be to make the illegal, legal.

That should do it.
