| Ok, so first of all you have completely contradicted you're claim that you're "pro-life" by saying you want to arm the citizen population. Do you realize that this means giving them guns, literally designed to take away lives?!
Secondly, I think abortion is very sad, but by making it illegal many are more likely to try and do it in illegal ways which are far more dangerous than getting it done legally for both the baby you're trying to protect and the mother herself. Furthermore, if someone isn't financially stable I think its wrong to force them into bringing a child into this world, where they don't even know if they would be able to put food on their table. You may say that it is her fault for not using protection but the truth is everyone makes mistakes, and as far as I'm concerned there is not yet a time machine. Plus there are so many circumstances that could have got her into this situation that she had no control over. I think it is a women's choice what she does with her body, and even if you don't agree with, at the end of the day it's her body not yours so you don't get a say in what she decides to do with it.
Thirdly, countries such as Sweden, which have high taxes, are very successful and in my opinion is one of the best places to live. You may think that living in a country where people are dying of hunger on the streets, while meanwhile there are people so insanely rich, like Jeff Bezos. If you think that this is in anyway moral, then I simply don't understand how. I understand that he 'worked hard to earn that money' but I don't think this makes it anymore justifiable, because someone could work just as hard cleaning toilets, earning next to nothing. I'm not saying that people who barely have enough money in the first place must give this away as tax, but there are people who have so much, who just are taxed so little.
About the climate change, if you're not going to listen to the very intelligent scientists, who know far more on this topic than both of us, then that's your idiocy, and I can't really say much to improve that.
You said you don't agree with government funding of anything-I don't completely know what you mean by this. The very roads you drive on are government funded, so are the schools that the majority of the population in America go to. If you want to privatize schools then you seem to think that education is something only to be enjoyed by the privileged/rich. This may not be what you mean I'm not sure. Maybe you are referring to the health care, which is privatized in America. Again, you said you're 'pro-life' but with privatized healthcare, you're implying that medical care (which is needed to keep you alive, fit and healthy) is something only to be used by those who can afford it. If the government funded better sex education and reduced the cost of contraception, this would reduce accidental pregnancies, therefore reducing the amount of abortions, which is literally something you want to decrease.
I'm sure you're a nice person, I just strongly disagree with your political views. :) |
