In the article “Pimps, Whores, and Welfare Brats,” by Star Parker, she talks about the different groups in society that have contributed to welfare. The pimps are the “government socialists who believe man is basically good, but has a few character flaws that can be corrected with a little help from Big Brother.” These people have little faith that blacks are smart enough or independent enough to make it on their own without the governments help. The whores were blacks who were backing up the pimps so they can get paid. The welfare brats were the individuals who made basically lived off the government. They have decided not to get a job and to take advantage of all the government has to offer. The article goes on to talk about the “most destructive special interest group on the American legal scene today” which is the ACLU. This group is allowing behavior that should otherwise be banned. An example is allowing children to refuse to say the pledge of allegiance in school and the selling of pornography.
The most interesting thing in this article to me is the talk about abortion. I had no idea that some states were allowing teens under the age of 18 get an abortion without their parents’ consent. I agree with the author. This defeats the whole purpose of having parents. When a female is pregnant, it is their responsibility to tell their parents even if they are afraid of how they may react. The teen is endangering her health and well being by going to get an abortion without her parents’ consent. I am 100% against abortion. I feel there are other ways to go about things if you truly do not want the child. Terminating a pregnancy because you are afraid and you feel as if you’re not ready is not an excuse to me. Being responsible from the very beginning can eliminate all of this.
