Big (Taxpayer) Bucks for Abortion

After looking at Planned Parenthood’s latest annual report, I’d be tempted to say they were making a killing…if it wasn’t such a sick joke.

Page 16 of the report shows Planned Parenthood’s balance sheet. Last year they received over $1 billion in revenue. That’s BILLION with a B.

Of course, YOU kicked in about 1/3 of that. What, you didn’t know you helped Planned Parenthood make that $1 billion last year? $337 million in government grants and contracts went to Planned Parenthood. And since the government can only get it’s money from YOU, you, the taxpayer, paid for 1/3 of Planned Parenthood’s income.

The nation’s largest abortion provider brought in $357 million from their “health centers.” Having performed 289,750 abortions in 2006, a substantial chunk of that $357 million must have come at the expense of hundreds of thousands of dead children.

Do we really want to continue taxpayer funding for this kind of bloodshed?

For that matter, do we really want to continue this kind of bloodshed, period?
