One can't equate the potential with the actual. In this case, I do see the unborn as potential, whereas my economic standing is actual. That's why I think that the economy and the value of the dollar is an issue every bit as prescient as abortion.

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough, I do feel that human life is infinitely more important than money. Money is a means to an end. Man is an end unto himself. Quality of life is important too, and when the currency is under attack then all of this nation's material goods are cheapened as well. Money is supposed to be a meter stick, a means for gaging how much one has produced, when it comes time to exchange value for value. Money measures the product of life, not life itself. Therefore, when our currency is being devalued, that cheapens the blood, sweat and tears of every American. Especially those of us with millions of needy welfare recipients depending on us.

There's a reason why murder can result in execution. The taking of a life is as serious a matter as it can get. The problem I see is that our definition of life needs to be established. I mean, what do the courts define as life? I agree Brian. There’s a reason why murder can result in execution. The taking of a life is as serious a matter as it can get.

Why is abortion such a big deal to mainstream Republicans, while the health of the economy and the value of our very currency is "something that the fringe carps about"? I'm completely befuddled by that. That’s actually funny, Brian.
