Poor Women and Children Will Suffer

NPR Trump Administration Proposes Sweeping Changes To Federal Family Planning Program

I am still amazed at how these crazy Pro-Lifers are so dedicated to keeping poor women poor.  And how they also want to keep them stupid and unprotected.  I mean listen to this stupidity...
"Some of those organizations emphasize abstinence outside of marriage or promote fertility awareness methods, which depend on understanding a woman's cycle and restricting sexual activity at times she is fertile.  Mario Dickerson, executive director of the Catholic Medical Association, said he would like to see the program move in that direction. "We could provide abstinence programs; we could provide natural family planning ... but not have to provide these other services," Dickerson said."
Like that poor wife or live in girl friend will have a lot of say in dissuading the horny husband or boyfriend...

I mean quality birth control and first term abortions are available to every woman who has a reasonable household income.  And yet Religious Whackos want to withhold these basic legal freedoms from low income women but cutting the funding. Then on top of that the same Religious Whackos want to cut programs that help these unwanted kids after they are born...

I will never understand their rationale?  Thoughts?
