Georgia Democrat and gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams told MSNBC Wednesday that inconvenient children are the reason why the adults who conceived them are worried about their bank accounts, suggesting that abortion can help solve inflation.

Abrams, who has made the right to murder unwanted children a cornerstone of her campaign, argued that one good way to avoid having to pay more to feed a child is to simply abort the baby before they can impact your wallet.

“While abortion is an issue, it nowhere reaches the level of interest of voters in terms of the cost of gas, food, bread milk, things like that,” Abrams was asked on MSNBC’s Morning Joe. “What could you do as Georgia governor to alleviate the concerns of voters about those livability – daily, hourly – issues they’re confronted with?

“But let’s be clear: Having children is why you’re worried about your price for gas, it’s why you’re concerned about how much food costs,” Abrams answered.

“For women, this is not a reductive issue. You can’t divorce being forced to carry an unwanted pregnancy from the economic realities of having a child."

It's interesting that a woman who can't divorce having children from the "economic realities" of having to care for them has no problem at all divorcing casual sex from the biological reality of pregnancy.
