Many of the 40 million aborted would have been taxpayers too. That helps.

Can you prove that? Isn't one of the big right-wing memes right now that half of Americans pay no tax at all? So really, according to the right-wing, only 20 million would be tax-payers; the other 20 million would be moochers.

I don't know the fraction. I said many - it's a guess. I didn't say all, or most. I simply don't know. Neither do you.

I would actually think that we would be paying more as tax payers for those 40 million than what we'd actually get back, considering the children were unwanted by their parents. more likely see wards of the state.
