For more than a century, abortion has created tremendous wealth for providers in the United States. That continues today as yet another shocking video has been released showing a top Planned Parenthood official discussing the sale of body parts of unborn children. And, although this news does not seem to disturb many on the pro-choice side, there was a time when most believed that ending the life of the unborn child was “so egregious an offense against nature” that it deserved the harshest penalties. It was an era when even the New York Times found the practice so abhorrent that their editorial staff responded to the 1878 death of Madame Restell, an infamous abortionist, with the statement that her passing was “a fitting end to an odious career.”

Madame Restell’s death occurred during a time when she held sway over New York City’s abortion industry—owning a network of abortion parlors throughout the city that stretched from her primary facility in a house on Chambers Street all the way across the River to Hoboken. She was joined in New York City’s burgeoning abortion business by dozens of other abortionists who were luridly described in New York’s National Police Gazette as “fiends who have made a business of professional murder and who have reaped the bloody harvest in quenching the immortal spark in thousands of the unborn.”

14but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. 15Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.


Sin begets sin.
 
Who is getting rich at planned parenthood?
 
Who is getting rich at planned parenthood?

Rich is relative, but PP's CEO Cecil Richard's made $523,616 to be exact, for the fiscal year ending on June 30, 2013.

It's not too late to read the actual article though...
 
How much do they charge for an abortion these days?


The price paid will always be far greater than the cost..

Who is profiting.

Charging for a service does not equal greed. Money that comes in, reimburses them for the cost of the procedure. Many exams, treatments and services are not reimbursed or are on a sliding scale that will never come close to reimbursing them for their cost outlay.

Again....name the greedy individual that is making a lot of money at PP.

Someone should cut you off of the koolaid.

is that out of line for top executives? Seriously>


You need good well connected people at the top to run such a huge organization.
 
Aware but, not interested. Abortion is the topic.

No. The topic is greed related to abortions. And I have clearly shown that in terms of large non profits - their salaries are in line with their counterparts.

They have to pay to retain top talent. No more. No less.

Put the koolaid down.
 
Maybe that's why they have a side business?

Again....how much money are they making with this alleged "side business"? You say greed....I say show me the numbers.
 
The price paid will always be far greater than the cost..

Of course. Like for food. And? But it is interesting that an abortion seems to cost between $ 300 and $ 1.000.

pretty standard for a not-for-profit organization of that type and size.

seems pretty reasonable to me for an organization of that size.

do you even see the absurdity in your statement?

a pittance, given the size of the organization and level of responsibility that comes with running it.
