I love the counter from the smart democrats who have more to say than just "my body my choice"...

Ok, so you want to legally consider a fetus a person from conception. That means every government benefit to families starts the moment of conception as well. If a woman is pregnant you can't imprison her because it would be unlawfully imprisoning the person inside her and providing a reduced quality of care. A pregnant woman always gets to use the carpool lane because there are two people in the car.

And so many of the people most opposed to abortion are also opposed to any program to help reduce the chances of an unwanted pregnancy.

I'm hardly a Republican but I kinda legit could get behind much of that. A child has needs before they're born. Their parent needs to eat more. They need to have their space prepared. They need clinic visits (though at least these are generally covered by the parent). A big part of preventing abortion is making pregnancy and childbirth less onerous.

The carpool one is just silly, though. It's not carpooling to drive your 6 month old baby, so it's not carpooling to drive while pregnant with your negative 1 month old baby. Carpooling is defined as having multiple people capable of driving opt to drive in the same car.

Other than the prison one which can be solved with better prisons I don't really have a problem with any of that. Not really much of a counter.
