As we enter another election cycle the "A" word will be brought up time and time again, the "A" word is the American Holocaust. I'm of course refereing to abortion. I know, I know it's a woman's right to choose or is it? First of all the Roe versus Wade decision says nothing about a woman's right to choose, the decision incorrectly states that an abortion is a private matter between a woman and her physician.
      Second a Woman does not have the "right to choose", if we were going to use that argument then Women could argue that they have the choice between using illegal narcotics or not using illegal narcotics, after all it's her body to do with as she wishes. Wearing a seat belt when in a vehicle, if she wants to be ejected through the windshield that's her choice.
      If women have the "right to choose" why don't men have the same "right" as women? We don't because women don't have that right either. As for a "private matter" between a woman and her physician, this isn't a valid argument either because a private matter could easily mean "Doctor, I am a miserable failure in life please kill me." Or "Doctor I am going to kill the President of the United States tomorrow and I need some valium to calm my nerves."
      The Doctor is by law required to inform authorities if a patient makes such a claim, so much for the "private matter" of a woman and her physician argument. Another argument American Holocaust supporters like to use is "an unborn fetus is a parasite that a woman has the "right" to have surgically removed at her discretion."
     Ok let's explore that chain of thought, I remember reading some of the NAZI propaganda from the 1930's and 40's and the Nazi party said the same thing about the jews being parasites of  the world and needed to be eradicated thus the original Holocaust was born. So it's axiomatic  to believe the unborn fetus is a parasite to be eliminated at will is to believe that the Germans of WWII had the "right" to kill over six million jews.
     Now let's examine the social/ecomomic consequences of the American Holocaust. Since "choice" is invalid as an argument because choice in this context is a detriment to society as a whole. Illegal narcotics are a detriment to society and so is not wearing your seat belt because of the danger to all of us, in the illegal narcotics example the crimes associated with them.
      Another social consequence is the devaluing of human life, murder becomes a more acceptable choice to resolve problems, euthanasia  becomes more acceptable to rid ourselves of the aged or infirm. The ecomomic consequences are not any prettier.
     While true it costs money to raise "unwanted" children the long term effects is the decimating of our future labor pool. Take France and Germany for example The French and Germans MUST bring in foreign workers from the middle east to take menial labor jobs because abortion has decimated their labor pools.
     The end result is the people and governments of these two particular countries quake in fear of middle eastern terrorism should they consider any policy that is not in the best interest of the middle east because of the sheer number of immigrants from that region.
     We here in the United States are starting to see the same results but instead of terrorism being the problem it is illegal immigration from South America which is another blog topic.
     Of course there is the moral issues associated with the American Holocaust. If you believe the Nazi's American inspired elimination of the worlds Jews just because they were Jewish was an immoral act, then logic dictates that the elimination of the unborn just because they can't defend themselves is also immoral.
