Abortion being the negative thing that it is: why hasn't it been taxed. ?

Question

Most smokers and drinkers pay income tax

Answer 1

Taxed?  Why Planned Parenthood (abortion clinic) receives 30 billion dollars a year from tax payers.  That is why in my opinion there is such a negative out pour against abortion.  That should not only be a personal matter, but never ever funded by the federal government.  What an injustice!!!!!!!!!!!!  

Answer 2

Ah, but those and similar taxes... are for doing things we enjoy. While how the woman GOT pregnant might have been enjoyable, I really don't think the abortion itself is.

Answer 3

I found this article to be quite amusing, Vitter, the one caught with a prostitute is the author of this bit of right wing fundamentalist garbage.

You will note that federal law clearly prohibits its money for use for abortions.

But it can go to fund contraceptives and general women's health care.

That's why there has been a recent flap about banning contraception like the pill because the fundies claim that is the same as an abortion.

As to why hasn't it been taxed, most medical procedures aren't taxed.

Smoking and drinking aren't at all the same as a medical procedure.

And GH, its thirty million not billion.

Answer 4

What?

Doctors pay income tax
