OK. A bit of context might have helped, there.

I think I pay about 20c a month for my kid's life insurance, so in practical terms it could be a possibility. I think you can only get a death certificate , if you have a birth certificate.

What this thread has done is prompt me to give money to planned parenthood. I didn't realize there were so many options though. Do I give to the local one or , have them split the donation nationally?
Living in CA, I always opt for the national option so the donation can be directed to the areas where it's needed most. Like Texas

Just been listening to an interesting podcast while wrapping presents. I didn't realize a large proportion of welfare money is spent on parenting classes and couples counselling. If you want to find out how much your state spends here is the website.

Here we go. Day 1.
Donald Trump Signs Anti-Abortion Executive Order Surrounded By Men | The Huffington Post
This bill means that any INTERNATIONAL NGO that offer or advise on a wide range of family planning and reproductive health options if they include abortion ― even if U.S. dollars are not specifically used for abortion-related services. Reagan did this in the 1980's. Surrounded by white privileged males Trump signs away the rights of women to get suitable health advice.

Well I'm sure they know what's best for us. We shouldn't worry our pretty little heads about it.

I bet the funding for Out of Wedlock Pregnancy Prevention & Two Parent Family Formation/Maintenance doesn't get cut. I was looking at Texas, this uses up $400m per year from what I see, compared to $50m given out as cash assistance.

So far, more white males in Trump's cabinet than any since Reagan.

They have to, he needs them to wait around to help him with the big words.

Pence really does have a look of "I hope they impeach you soon so you can get the **** out of my seat" on his face though, doesn't he?
