Most people would agree Ms.Kagan will check with Obama before she takes a stand on any argument before the court.

That means solialist views from Obama, the solialist which is not good for the country.

Roe v Wade made our civil government stop enforcing church law that bans abortion. Enforcement of Roe, however, has let us taxpayers see now much we save when abortion is encouraged. Without Roe, most poor women couldn't have abortions even if they were willing to "go to Hell for committing the sin of abortion." Because so many poor unwed moms were forced to have babies, there began the expensive welfare system. It costs $500,000 in taxes to give welfare, ADC, food stamps, health care & subsidized housing to one mom & kid to age l8. But I researched US abortion costs. We can save $498,630 every time taxes pay for an abortion because the procedure is cheap. To ten weeks, it costs only $527. To l6 weeks, it's still costs only $735. If the woman must wait longer, it still costs just $1370. Americans who are proud to be fiscally conservative (thrifty) can see that "nipping it in the bud" is the best way to help taxpayers. Remember, Congress has to borrow to provide all that welfare, so we taxpayers are stuck with paying interest to do all that borrowing. I don't like the Big Government it costs to hire people to run the current welfare system.
