New PP CEO Wants to Double Down on Abortion Business

[Person Man]

The boy who cried Abortion...

[MasterJedi]

As Barney Frank said, for Republicans life begins at conception and ends at birth.

Pretty much, once they're born doing anything else to help them would be socialism so they might as well die if they need government support.

[Ban my account ffs!]

Let's just say I believe this about as much as I believe this https://mavenroundtable.io/theintellectualist/news/report-trump-allegedly-paid-hush-money-for-eight-abortions-_FsKyrV84EeUnFwmCd8cSg/?utm_source=Amplify&utm_medium=Intellectualist&utm_campaign=Facebook&fbclid=IwAR1OOOrNZ1V6AP7O0aoFzR4ktDZDI2ul5V-_0zcLxB0ZX0V-3oM6aaO8ilU

You should change the thread title, before I do it for you.

Just do it dear. The title is ludicrously false and misleading.

It's interesting how thread titles that offend those on the left side of the spectrum here are to be changed, but those that offend the right side of the spectrum are tolerated. It is an unfortunate reflection of where things seem to stand.

[The Free North]

Abortion is morally repugnant.  

[Wisconsin SC Race 2019]

Yeah, let's not just double down, but triple down. Too many people out there undeserving to be parents.

Let me know if you think a headline is false and misleading with a "left wing" spin. I was suspicious of this thread headline, and checked it out, but decided it was reasonably accurate. I assume that you agree that the headline here as originally written was false and misleading. One thread at a time.

[Progressive Pessimist]

The actual quotes, taken directly from your "Life News" article:

"There is huge unmet need across our country, and it is our moral imperative to provide care for all those who need us," Wen said. "I plan to expand our services, and expand our reach."

Later, she added: "We are probably the only healthcare organization that has a presence in all 50 states. [This, she said, is why she wants to expand.]"

"There is no question we are in a state of emergency for women’s health," she said. "[When a society] treats one type of healthcare differently than everyone else, that’s when we get to where we are, which is the biggest healthcare crisis of our time."

"I strongly believe that healthcare must be guaranteed to all regardless of our ability to pay," Wen told The Guardian. "… all people should be treated with compassion and high quality care – that’s what a society should guarantee."

Shhhh...we can’t be ruining the extreme right wing narrative.

Perpetually outraged? That is an exaggeration. There have been thread titles on here in the past, relating to Trump or Republicans, that were complained about by a good number of the posters here, for the inherent bias in the headline. Those titles went unchanged. However, the title in this thread is objectionable to pro-choicers, who are generally on the left side of the ideological spectrum, and the demand was made for it to be changed (it was).

It's unfortunate that someone like you, who expresses open contempt and mockery towards other users on here, is allowed to remain a moderator. But I digress.

I don't see any other headlines on here as of now, but I will bring attention to them in the future. I'm not the first user to have concerns over this, and I generally believe that news headlines should be as neutral as possible. That helps to keep debate under control and makes it less likely that things will get out of hand.

Ah yeah, just a bit of racism as a cherry on top

Stating a fact about someone's background is racism?

Also, no matter what flowery language Wen may use to detail this expansion , the end result is always the deaths of more innocent, unborn children.

Out of curiosity, what do you think this woman's incentive is to cause the deaths of more innocent, unborn children?

Abortion is a very lucrative business, money-wise. PP performs about 320,000 abortions every year, with each costing around $1000. That amounts to hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue for PP every year, why wouldn't they want to expand (rights of the unborn be damned)?

Source on the 320,000 figure: https://thehill.com/opinion/healthcare/371078-planned-parenthoods-annual-report-is-out-another-unhappy-tale

If it's truly all about the money, why would they take a massive loss each year giving free birth control and IUDs to prevent abortions? They'd be losing money in order to make less money. That doesn't make sense. Unless they genuinely want to expand their services to as many women as possible to ensure they get the kind of care that would actually lower the number of abortions they would need to provide.

[Green Line]

Did she say that?  Sounds fake..  I know its what they want in their heart but most don't say it out loud.

An example of that was the now-changed thread on the Florida recounts that called Republicans both racist and corrupt on the title.  It did change, but it also took a while for it to change.

Mabel a Pro-Choice Republican

^^what happened to decent republicans like Mabel.... :/

abortion for the sake of population control is the furthest thing from decent and its a good thing this attitude is almost completely gone from the GOP.

It's not as though they don't make up those losses with their abortion services, federal dollars, and private donations. Planned Parenthood, at its core, is a business and is willing to take calculated losses in order to increase overall expansion/reach.

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

Ah, Planned Parenthood, furthering its transformation into a mirror of the NRA.

Not sure what your intent is by saying this, but it's such a shame how even some of the moderators on this board don't try to set a better example for other users on here. But I will not engage in it any further.

[Cold War Liberal]

I liked Lena Wen when she worked for the city. When WYPR (local NPR affiliate) would have her on, she'd explain the latest health issues (usually opioid related) in very cerebral but somehow also easy to understand ways, easy to understand even if you don't know anything about health policy.

While I don't feel comfortable with abortion personally I can't have one so whatever, not my choice to make for other people. I don't feel strongly about abortion. PP does many other things, and abortions are, IIRC, a small fraction of what they do. Lena Wen will be good at her new job, I am sure of it. The only part I don't like is that such a great talent is leaving my area!

If someone swapped your pearls for coal you'd clutch them into diamonds.

For real though!

[Mr. Reactionary]

Haha... I've never seen PP referred to as an abortion chain before but i think ima start using that line.
