Planned Parenthood Attack

I read the thread for the second time today and was responding to a post Wrangor made. What compelled you to post what you did?
 
I already made that point. why did you feel you had to make it again?
 
I also thought the original post on the topic saying that recovering costs and profits were th same was a really bad point
 
Texas has highest maternal mortality rate in developed world, study finds

In the wake of the report, reproductive health advocates are blaming the increase on Republican-led budget cuts that decimated the ranks of Texas’s reproductive healthcare clinics. In 2011, just as the spike began, the Texas state legislature cut $73.6m from the state’s family planning budget of $111.5m. The two-thirds cut forced more than 80 family planning clinics to shut down across the state. The remaining clinics managed to provide services – such as low-cost or free birth control, cancer screenings and well-woman exams – to only half as many women as before.

At the same time, Texas eliminated all Planned Parenthood clinics – whether or not they provided abortion services – from the state program that provides poor women with preventive healthcare. Previously, Planned Parenthood clinics in Texas offered cancer screenings and contraception to more than 130,000 women.

In 2013, Texas restored funding for the family planning budget to original levels. But the healthcare providers who survived the initial cuts reported struggles to restore services to their original levels.
 
You'd think they could make up the difference by selling human baby parts.
