No, I am actually quite opposed to abortions for almost all reasons.

The point was for those who think it is a waste of tax dollars to fund abortion are wrong if the basis for oppisition is an economic one. From a strictly economic perspective funding abortions is a better alternative then dealing with the offspring of people not smart enought not to get pregnant and who do not have the resources to get an abortion let alone raise a child.

The study that levitt did was actually attacked for being immoral from both the pro-choice and the pro-life side. It is merely information to explain a drop in crime and doesn't have any politics. People on both sides assume a political motivation behind the work.
