Why? For allowing this to continue, not only unabated, but at an accelerated pace with increased taxpayer funding.
Despite a drop in donations and the first fall in income from clinics in its history, the nation’s biggest abortion provider made a high profit last year, thanks to the American taxpayer. Pro-lifers want this to stop.
During its 2005-2006 fiscal year, the Planned Parenthood Federation of America performed a record 264,943 abortions, attained a high profit of $55.8 million and received record taxpayer funding of $305.3 million.
How exactly does a drop in donations and a drop in fees for services rendered equal $55.6 million in profits? With your tax money, that is how.
“The final category of Planned Parenthood revenue sources is you and me — the American taxpayer,” Sedlak said. He noted that the amount of taxpayer funding reported by PPFA exceeded that of the previous year by $32.6 million, or 12 percent.
A 12 percent increase in taxpayer money. 12 percent! Did your salary go up 12 percent?
It is interesting to note that the current comprehensive immigration bill called for allowing 200,000 guest workers a year. This single organization, Planned Parenthood, ended the lives of 264,943 Americans in one year, the vast, vast majority of them for simple convenience. And profit.
One day, we will wake up and realize what a travesty this has been to our country. One day.

Some call a medical procedure.
I call it MURDER,
Every abortion ends in the death of at least one person. Who could classify that as safe?
Amen. Yes, one day - hopefully soon - society will look back and say, “You did what?! Mothers and fathers paid strangers to crush and dismember their innocent, unborn children? And you called that a moral good?!”
“During its 2005-2006 fiscal year, the Planned Parenthood Federation of America performed a record 264,943 abortions, attained a high profit of $55.8 million and received record taxpayer funding of $305.3 million.”
So, that’s 305.3 million dollars divided by 264,943 equals $1152.00 to kill a baby at taxpayer’s expense? And (if my math is correct) an 18% markup made a 55.8 million profit. And how much “extra” profit was made by selling the stem cells for research???
I’m glad baby Jesus was born 2,000 years ago….. When he comes back he ain’t gonna be happy!
I guess Congress needs to investigate Big Abortion and its profits. Id say its infanticide gouging. Maybe Hillary will take some of their profits too.
Wonder if the Conservatives will justify this by citing the free market and the wonders of capitalism.
#3, from one Roe-v-Wade survivor to another, I must concede that PP didn’t make all their money from abortions. They made some on other services as well, such as encouraging our youth to have sex outside marriage and distributing faulty condoms.
264,943 divided by 365 days = about 726 dead babies per day.
/bows head in shame and prayer
I’ve said this before and it’s worth repeating now. I wonder how a group of people can end the live of innocent unborn babies and denounce the execution of a condemned murder.
What really sucks, is that, if you are pregnant and someone kills you and your unborn child/fetus, it’s a double murder. Abortion is not murder. Make sense to you? Now I find out that the taxpayer is footing most of the bill for something that I’m totally against?
No matter, abortion is murder - pure and simple agreed or not. Don’t try to spin it any other way. If doctors are able to do surgery while the fetus is still in the womb, then it is a human being.
I believe Planned Parenthood still gets money from United Way donations if so specified by the donor.
Disgusting
Yes, you don’t want to make general donations to United Way or some may go to PP. There are about a million other good, efficient charities that don’t support abortion providers, so I quit giving to United Way many years ago.
Amen. to the article. I believe that we should make all recipient of public money i.e. grant etc. to have to give stock to the social security fund.( which needs to be properly established and run). That way every time we help somebody discover something, we should benefit. I don’t know if Abortion profits should be included. maybe we should just NOT give it in the first place to things like this. Shouldn’t they just get the money from their own profits and donations. or at least lower the price. Are they a for profit group?
