Black genocide helps economy?

By Mychal Massie

Appearing on ABC’s “This Week with George Stephanopoulos,” Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi claimed, “Contraceptives will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government.” The petulant lawmaker who is the mother of five children and six grandchildren, and who at one time opined “nothing in my life will ever, ever compare to being a mom,” now feels the children of others are a drain to the economy.

Pelosi told Stephanopoulos: “Family planning services reduce cost. … The states are in terrible fiscal budget crises now and part of what we do for children’s health, education and some of those elements are to help the states meet their financial needs. One of the initiatives … mentioned, the contraception, will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government.”

She added that she had “no apologies” for her position – saying, “We have to deal with the consequences of the downturn in our economy.” Pelosi’s comments eerily reflect the exact sentiments of Margaret Sanger, the progenitor of Planned Parenthood and today’s abortion industry.

Specific to that point, I submit the reasonable interpretation of Pelosi’s comments is that she was in actuality referring to blacks, illegals and the poor in general. What other groups of children could reasonably be viewed as a “financial burden” on the economy? Are we not daily bombarded with statistics referencing black illegitimacy? Are we not led to believe SCHIP is for the poor? And when poor children are referenced or depicted, are they not most often black? Are not illegal immigrant women having upwards of 500,000 babies per year? I ask again, to what other groups could she possibly be referring?

Are we not told that our prisons are overflowing with multiple generations of blacks? Are we not led to believe that only poor, uneducated blacks are the reason for drugs and crimes associated with same? Her comments may have been unquestionably morally opprobrious, but in the minds of liberal elites, they were empirically justified.

That said, the contraceptive liberals champion is abortion. And the only children valueless enough to be worthy of same on a pandemic level are those of blacks. Black children and other valueless beings are viewed as financial black holes to liberal society. Now, with the man who is more pro-abortion than any who have gone before him, Pelosi and those like her see their opportunity to once and for all save billions, while at the same time allow for one of their chief benefactors, i.e., the abortion industry, to earn hundreds of millions – which they will in turn gratuitously invest in liberal campaigns.

To date, no other populace group has been more disproportionately affected by abortion than blacks. In America today, almost as many blacks are aborted as are born. In 2002, there were just over 10,000 black children born in the five county Philadelphia area – in that same year and same area there were just over 9,200 unborn black children murdered. Since 1973, abortion has reduced the black population by over 25 percent.

Approximately every 32 hours, there are more black children murdered by abortion than there were lynched by the Ku Klux Klan from 1882 to 1968. Planned Parenthood operates 80 percent of its abortion clinics in minority neighborhoods. While about 13 percent of America’s women are black, they are responsible for having over 35 percent of all abortions.

Pelosi and her ilk can claim otherwise, but facts and statistics will undermine their anticipated arguments. I challenge “Mother Pelosi” to dispute my comments. Let her defend hers. Let her explain in detail exactly who these poor are – and let her explain in exact detail who she is including in her groupings.

Blacks and the other so-called poor are not a drain on our state and federal budgets – illegals, government waste and unnecessary social programs are.

I am sick of hearing how Obama’s ascendancy has paved the way for today’s black children to understand that they can accomplish or be anything they choose – even president. My question is: “How many of the over 13 million unborn black children that have been murdered since 1973 could have grown up to become president?” How many more potential presidents, doctors, jurists, scientists and educators will we lose?

Using Pelosi’s reasoning, Barack Hussein Obama, the 44th president of the United States, should have been aborted. His mother was abandoned by his father, she had no measurable means of income, rumors of drugs and other abuse persist to this day, and the taxpayers put him through school.
