Abortion

Talk about a war on women, statistics taken from the government's Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the Guttmacher Institute (GI), a special research affiliate of the abortion chain Planned Parenthood, 54,559,615 children have been aborted from 1973 to 2012 in the United States.

Using their numbers and the normal distribution percentages, that means...

1,091,192 would have had IQ's above 130 and considered genius.

7,638,346 would have had IQ's between 115 an 130

18,550,269 would have had IQ's between 100 and 115

Overall 45,830,076 would have been considered part of the normal population with jobs, taxpayers and productive citizens.

Without that loss there would have been people in all of the jobs we have in America: businessmen/women, farmers, scientists, doctors, lawyers, judges, teachers, factory workers, inventors, professors, preachers, college students, CEOs, administrators, technicians of all kinds, construction owners/workers, and of course school-age students and kids at home. And the list goes on and on to include every conceivable job a person could have.

The oldest of this group would be only 39 years old.

With an average of 1.4 million being aborted each year, assuming that each person enters the work force at age 20, that means that today we would have about 26.6 million more people under the age of 39 in our work force right now paying taxes and helping to support the economy.

More than that, however, what we do have is 54,559,615 souls who could have enriched the lives of each family, either natural or adoptive, and the communities into which they would have been born. Instead, we have as many prospective Mothers who have been left with only a distant memory of having sustained their right to choose.

What a shame America has lost such a significant resource of human life. That is the real war on women.
