You do not get to choose who can and can not give up their fetus.
There are many reasons why people do. It is their choice not yours.
You have health insurance? Because I guarantee that your weekly / monthly payment wouldn't cover the full cost if you got cancer.
Do you really need an automatic to shoot a deer?
spray and pray you got it right?
Abortion needs to be banned lets force a kid with Anencephaly to be born so the parents can watch it live maybe 8 hours before it dies then they still have to pay that god awful hospital bill.
But you feel good don't you, even though you never met them.
The military is one of the most socialist organizations in America.
-Healthcare provided for
-Job given to you based on ability
-Free meals in the mess hall
-Discounted groceries at the base exchange or AAFES
-Clothing for work taken care of (uniforms)
-Discounted gasoline on military bases for troops and dependents
-Free gym access for troops and dependents
-Free housing
-Off-base housing allowance
Basically, you can show up for a job with the military with nothing but the clothes on your back and be just fine.
The military will provide and give you everything you need to live.

Socialists don`t have a good track record,ya know?You know like Hillary, or Pol Pot?
General Tito(Yugoslavia) was lauded at home and abroad. Your point?
Uh,he was a socialist.
Right. And successful at home and in the international arena as well.
Successful at being a tyrant and a murderer you mean:

Did you read your own source?
Although Yugoslavia was closely associated with the USSR and was a leading member of the Cominform, Tito often pursued independent policies and did not hesitate to curtail the activities of Soviet agents. In 1948 the Cominform accused Tito of having deviated from the correct Communist line. Tito denied the charges and refused to submit to the Cominform, from which Yugoslavia was then expelled.
Having already transformed Yugoslavia into an armed camp, built up a highly efficient secret police, and purged dissident elements in the Communist party, Tito succeeded in maintaining his position despite the hostility of the USSR and his neighbors. Although he accepted loans from the Western powers, he initially did not alter his internal program. In later years, however, he relaxed many of the regime's strict controls, particularly those affecting the small farmers. As a result, Yugoslavia became the most liberal Communist country of Europe.
No where in YOUR source does it confirm your hypothesis. The Socialist Tito thumbed his nose at the Soviet Union for damn near 40 years. The country fell apart after his death and THAT wasn't pretty.
-money for college
-VA loans for homes
-cheap rentals for outdoor/sporting equipment
-discounted/free military-only campgrounds

That's your opinion. Your source didn't confirm that. Go ahead, Google again. Someone out there must have been able to castigate him.

Bernie Sanders is a nothing.
Your job was offered based on your ASVAB no?
Your meals may not be free per say but you can go to the chow hall free of charge.
You get a uniform allowance to cover the cost of your that uniform change.
Your housing is free of charge again on base and get a BAH when you are off base which always has a COLA built into it.
I would disagree on the PX prices as well but it has been a while since I have been in one so things could have changed.
Gas you are right on, that seemed to be always about the same. If cheaper, not by to much.
We are not saying that it is gold plated or luxury, just that it is very socialist when you break it down.
If you are enlisted and reside in the dormitory (or barracks, or whatever you want to call it), in most cases, you will be given your meals for free. Different services have different names for this. In the Air Force, it's called "being on a Meal Card." (This is a carry-over from the days when the Air Force actually issued a card that entitled someone to eat in the Dining Facility for Free -- in these days of computer automation, actual "Meal Cards" are rarely - if ever - used anymore.
Most chow halls offer four meals per day (breakfast, lunch, supper, and a "midnight meal."). There are even some that are open 24 hours per day.
I never said the 2nd Amendment was about deer hunting, What I'm saying is that for many years when bans on assault rifles brought up the first thing out of the NRA's and blindly following followers, mouth was "We use it for hunting" large magazine clips were changed to " those are varmint-hunting cartridges "
don't lie just tell the truth this weapon is for killing humans that is what it was made for.
I am not against you having it just don't lie and say its to kill a deer when you and I know you would not use it for that.
I have not heard one good reason why the USofA can't be like the rest of the world and have healthcare for all citizens.
