15. Very Nice Set of Principles
I am also a big believer in consistent ethics and value all human life.

Were it up to me there would be no abortions (I'm an abortion survivor) but, as an interim solution, would agree to limit them as much as possible rather than an outright ban.

However, I am not entirely certain that I can accept the notion of welfare for families. Such programs should be financed via private, non-profit agencies, not by the government. After all, the corporate welfare recipients have gotten billions in tax dollars over the many years. It is time for them to use that money to help the poor without government aid.

Bottom line is that the liberal agenda is a pro life agenda. And contrary to the lies from the right wing media and pols, it always worked.
