You have to afford birth control, which isn't always an easy feat. I've lived plenty of places where, being poor, I couldn't afford to travel to planned parenthood. Lots of folks get pregnant on these: Most folks can't take birth control pills perfectly. (I Personally cannot use hormonal birth control at all without major side effects, and wanted to be sterilized - but that's not generally an option for childless women) Abortion is legal, sure: But it isn't free either and in some states, it takes travel and things to get there. Expecting folks to put their child up for adoption is simply cruel. Besides, we should look at more than financial viability for folks. I'd rather help folks raise whatever children they have than sell children off (taxpayer funded is the way to go) and I'd much rather foster homes and adoption of older children be encouraged.
