Conservatives: all part of the plan
Meanwhile everyone else us wondering what the effect of all those unwanted children will have in the next 30 years for those families.
Wait until those conservatives find out that POC are having more kids than white people (in part due to less access to affordable contraception).
My coworker brought up that point at a party and omfg if I had camera out it would have been a viral meme.
Like this one? https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/sudden-clarity-clarence
Then they'll continue to defund social services, wait for those kids to get old enough to commit crimes as poverty often encourages, then they'll collect that fat check from private prison lobbyists. Slavery with extra steps.

Conservatives: also part of the plan
We are likely going to see a rise in infant and maternal mortality rates as well. Most of the states that outright banned abortion are also ones where they didn't expand Medicaid and have fewer hospitals
And in 20 years, a spike in crimes.
Which will continue to feed the prison industrial complex. The cycle continues.
Glad someone mentioned this.
Already have.
Not to mention all the obgyns fleeing those states. Doctors want to help people, but they don't want to be thrown in jail for life (and they certainty can't help anyone from there). The procedures used for abortion are an integral part of reproductive medicine and save many lives. In these states prosecutors and judges are breathing down doctors necks, second guessing their judgment on when someone is critically ill enough to warrant an abortion. There's already women in those states who know their pregnancy is non viable, know they need an abortion, know that continuing on with the pregnancy will put their lives at risk, but the doctors that still remain have their hands tied to help until they start decompensating when it may already be too late.
Residents being trained in those states are already having trouble getting experience with these important life saving procedures. In some cases programs are trying work around like sending residents to train in other states for a time. But getting a short temporary rotation with just a few procedures is not the same, and surgeries are safer the more repetitions a surgeon has had. Abortion bans are making the entire country less safe, especially so if they get their way and ban it across the entire country and it becomes near impossible to get good training anywhere. Besides all the other obvious implications.
They are also more likely to have maternity wards close.

Just fresh slaves for the prison industrial complex. All part of the plan.
I think assuming it's just for prison industry is short-sighted. It's also to increase competition for labor so the capitalists can pay the absolute minimum to people begging to work for them. Even if we fix the prison slave labor issue, regular labor is still being exploited, and this is all by design.
Totally agree. The issues are always complex, thank you for the perspective.
Working as designed, they probably need military fodder too.
I can also make some predictions on the direction the poverty and criminality rates are going to go on those states.
Yup, Ney York crime statistics were a perfect case study for that, i can't remember the name of the documentary
I don't know about a documentary but I believe economist Stephen Levitt (sp?) put this theory forward.
32,000 more unwanted kids. I'm sure they'll have great lives. /s
They can get meat packing jobs after kindergarten.
Not to mention we might have a big war comming. You still need cannon meat, and I say why not, their parents where already forced to have them.
Probably condemning them to a shitty lovelless life, might as well finish the job and kill the poor bastards.
Fucking republicans.
Gonna need a helluva lot more foster/adoptive parents in a couple years.
We can go to those abortion rights protest with a sign up sheet.
I'm pretty sure I've seen a video of someone doing just that and getting zero signatures.
Good luck getting signatures. There are people who have done this, and they all gave an excuse as to why they can't do it.
Edit: for clarity: The Pro-lifers or Anti-abortionists make excuses as to why they can't take in these kids.
Who could have seen this coming /s
