A
Reader Sees Hope For “Godless Capitalist”
Alan Keyes, Abortion, and Mass Immigration
An
anonymous reader asks:
Alan Keyes has entered the
Illinois Senate race and maintained his
focus on moral issues like
abortion.
It might serve Mr. Keyes well if he
asks himself: why is it that the number of abortions per
fertile woman in a state is so
highly correlated with the presence of a large
foreign born population?
One simple explanation: the
pressures of mass immigration fall strongly on young
families and make having a family a difficult option. If Mr.
Keyes is really concerned about
reducing the incidence of abortion, he might do well
to consider taking a stronger stand against mass
immigration.
