[Peace-discuss] for children who are wanted

[C. G. Estabrook]

Certainly the left should be demanding (much more than it does) child
allowances, universal health care, guaranteed annual incomes, etc.  
Capitalist society would rather provide for the removal of unwanteds. But
practically no one says that it's OK to kill unwanted children.  So the
question of abortion remains what it's always been: is it killing
children?  --CGE
