Corporate media outlets have advanced the line that abortion is good for the economy because it keeps women in the labor force and saves them from the cost of raising children, but some say these arguments are fatally flawed.
Axios, CBS News, Bloomberg, Fortune and PBS each published articles advancing the argument that abortion restrictions after the likely overturning of Roe v. Wade would be a financial burden for individual women and would hamper the economy by keeping women out of the labor pool. The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board pushed back against these claims, pointing to the economic loss associated with abortion as children can’t grow up to innovate, start businesses and otherwise contribute to society if they’re never born to begin with.
