A Solution to the Abortion Issue!

I think I may have finally came up with a concrete plan to solve the abortion crisis. To note as we begin, I am pro-choice. I support a woman's right to control her body. However, in the recent times, I have debated with many peers over abortion, most of whom were against the "murder" of an unborn fetus.

My solution is simple. It satisfies both parties involved; the pro-life people are given a free end to abortion, the pro choice people get to see sweet revenge on the anti-choice people.

At first, my views on the subject were that abortion should always remain legal and pro-life people would always have the option to not get an abortion if they became pregnant. Seemed logical, but apparently, the pro-life table wanted to decided for all of us. I reviewed the options, what each party stood for and now I present my solution...


The Solution to Abortion in America -
  1. All abortions are made illegal immediately.
  2. The names of all Anti-Abortion activist and/or anyone in the nation who opposes abortion and is strictly pro-life is added to a list of "contacts."
  3. Any woman seeking an abortion is forced to deliver the child, no matter how it was conceived.
  4. When said child is born, the first person on the anti-abortion "contacts" list is contacted and given the child to be taken care of economically/socially/physically. The person(s) will act as adoptive parents. Any refusal to take the child in will be considered child neglect and result in arrest and trial. The child will be given to the next person on the list if arrest is made.

The great thing about this solution is that it is fool proof to anti-choice rhetoric. Here's some common excuses that might arrive from a pro-lifer who's to tied up to take a child (but not to busy to protest abortion):

  • "I can't take care of the child financially." - While this is a critical issue, we must note that pro-life activists have ignored the financial crises of many women who are seeking abortions; therefore, financial problems should be viewed as only small inconveniences to an anti-abortion person.
  • "I don't want kids." - Again, many women have used the same excuse to get an abortion when they become pregnant. However, anti-abortion groups say that the person should have thought of their actions before doing so (all women must think of their actions before being raped). So, by forcing this person to not only have the kid, but to medically carry it for 9 months, it would seem that pro-lifers would do anything to have a human life pull through.
  • "They should consider an adoption." - They did and you are the adopters . Congratulations, it's a boy.
  • "I am not (emotionally/physically/mentally) capable of taking care of a child." - Women who are becoming pregnant at the age of 12 might try the same excuse, but pro-life groups still would like to see that baby born, so I have granted their wishes, and now it's theirs.
  • "I couldn't take care of a handicapped child." - Neither could the mother, but that didn't stop you from demanding a birth.

This plan should make both sides happy. All anti-abortion people I know talk of the value of life, so I'm sure they would be thrilled to take a new child into their home, no matter the inconvenience it may cause.

Or just not state mandate it, if it's privatized and the state had no control via the medical board or any other policy, no group can say anything. You can't change a policy if it's a privatized system, and there is no government influence.

Haha, great idea, but one problem is unconsidered: if these Pro-lifers take in the babies and raise them, the children are going to come out as religious freaks that will overtake the country (by a larger percentage than that of which we are forced to live with today) and we'll become a second Vatican =P lol

Kai, I've been following this blog for a while, and I can tell that you're incredibly smart for 15. :)

I actually came up with an idea of my own to "solve" the issue of abortion back in February, and posted it on my own blog. If you're interested, check out http://www.phatpage.org/news/022106.html .

Keep up the great writing. :)

Kai, WANTS you think he's smart, all this stuff he's saying is not Kai, but a mind slug the Neo-Cons placed in his brain to amuse themselves. Kinda like how they built Ann coulter in a secret Bunker near the Cumberland Gap...

WHEN WILL THE MADNESS END!

I re-read it, doesn't it seem like you take liberty away from both parties? As you force the woman to give birth and you force children on people, doesn't sound very "liberty friendly"

Exactly. It's mocking the pro-lifers.
