Santorum blames abortion for Social Security woes

Honestly, you can't make this stuff up.

CONCORD, N.H. – In his latest trip to New Hampshire, Republican Rick Santorum says the Social Security system would be in much better shape if there were fewer abortions.

The former Pennsylvania senator and potential presidential candidate was asked about Social Security during an interview on WESZ-AM radio in Laconia on Tuesday morning.

He says the system has design flaws, but the reason it is in big trouble is that there aren't enough workers to support retirees. He blamed that on what he called the nation's abortion culture. He says that culture, coupled with policies that do not support families, deny America what it needs — more people.

Social Security benefits.

i am speechless

Can`t get much more nuts than this.

Does he think that if a child is born they pay Social Security taxes regardless if they have a job when they grow up?

What a fool!

People with no job are not paying SS tax.

Republicans are too stupid for words.

If we're going to call someone out for their stupidity it's best to do it with correct grammar.

Just kidding.

:dunce:

Ricky should stick to having sex with his dog, and STFU. :crazy:

Seems like if that's really what you want, the answer would be to eliminate ALL barriers to immigration and get more people here right fucking now.

If you eliminate abortion you have to wait 20 years for the unaborted folks to enter the work force and start supporting retirees.

Immigrants can do it immediately.

and the stupidest gets to run for pres.
day in, day out the stupid flows. soon it will reach tsunami stage.

To make Romney look good.:crazy:

rethug ways? Is he ever an idiot.

and Mooselini vigorous competition for the coveted title of "Dumbest Repig." Where do you begin with a statement of such towering stoopidity?

for not enough revenue coming in, instead of not enough people? There are teens and early 20's ready to enter the job market and can't find jobs.

Typical RW BS.

sorry, I just can't help but laugh whenever I hear about him :rofl:
