It was never about stopping abortion. It’s about keeping people in poverty and creating a cycle of uneducated voters that either don’t vote or vote Republican because they don’t know better

Found the pro-abortionist.
(For those that don't get the joke, notice that I didn't say pro-life or anti-choice. It's the "flush them all - no exceptions" position.)

TIL that America's birth rates have been traditionally driven by teen pregnancies. Nobody tell Tallarico, but ooof.wav
"Driven" suggest more than half of total pregnancies, which is not true looking at the graph given above. It was solidly ~~third~~fourth* in terms of totals, which is still unsettling, but not as pronounced as your comment suggests.
*I overlooked 25-29
Who told you that drivers have to be 51%?
That's not what a driver is. Driver is a general term, ten pregnancies are a driver of total birth rate, as they have impacted total fertility significantly.

Don't worry, Republicans will solve this by banning abortion and birth control nationwide!
They are always thinking of the children.
Uh, yeah, about that. Republicans need to stop thinking so much about children, mmkay?
And legalizing marriage to minors. And outlawing comprehensive sexual education.
A few Republicans also rape and traffic minors just to show how dedicated they are to countering the declining birth rate!
Pizzagate was projection.
A few?
They misspoke. A few don't.
Only a few do both!
Conservatives are thinking of the children. How is that unclear?
Also, we need to be clear, rape is such a harsh word, it's not fair to ruin someone's whole career over a little misunderstanding like consent...

Fight against SA protection in the workplace and push more children to work to live? Anything is better than the Great Replacement right? /s
But honestly thinking about what terrible combination of policies.

Not to call out OP, but does anyone have this information in anything other than .png format? There's no timestamps, hyperlinks, or citations anywhere here. I'd love to send this to other people, but I'm not about to copy-pasta something that could be old or inaccurate.
Not the exact image posted, but this appears to be the source
Fantastic. Thank you!
Here is the paywalled Economist article and an archive that does a poor job of capturing the image.
What do you know. If it takes two people to pay the rent them two people have to work to pay the rent...
While true, this is mostly about teen pregnancy. So it's moreso that things like education, easy access to contraception, legalizing abortion, etc. were the primary drivers. Not to worry though, the supreme court and fascists are working hard to reverse all that. We need poor children to feed the machine
