Wow, you're going to have a nervous breakdown when our finance system hits the wall.

We needed about a trillion dollars in cuts, got 3 billion.

3 billion off of the hundreds of billions in NEW spending.

A day will come, pretty soon now, where no one will lend us any more money.

If it makes you feel better, you can blame the Tea Party for that too.

The number have been trending down, which is heartening. And if you go to the census, you can have them broken down by state.

But without a comprehensive list of sex ed programs by area, I don't think you'd be able to get the information you're looking for.

I'm completely pro-choice. I just find the amounts of abortions to be incredible, and a red flag. That either we're not understanding something important, or we see it and refuse to believe it.

I know what you mean. I didn't believe it at first either.

Here's a list of births by year in the US: http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0005067.html

Abortions by year:

Looks like I was a little off. The numbers seem to be a closer to 1 out of 4 than 1 out of 3. Which is better, but still a staggering amount.

I guess I should have kept my research links from the first time I did this.
