Is Abortion Profitable? Quotes

to abortionists make money doing abortions? This is what Planned Parenthood says:

“Despite constant references to the “abortion industry” by antiabortion groups, it does not produce wealth.”

“Let’s Tell the Truth About Abortion” pamphlet distributed by Rocky Mountain Planned Parenthood. Fight Back Brass, 1985 P 9 and 12

Planned Parenthood, which is the most active pro-choice organization in America, denies that abortionists make a great deal of money.  Planned Parenthood often portrays abortion providers as selfless and compassionate people who only want to help women. But the truth is, despite what they say, money can be a strong motivating factor for those who do abortions.

Here is what former abortion providers are saying:

From Dr. Anthony Levantino, former abortion provider:

“Along the way you find out you make a lot of money doing abortions…I’ll give you an example. When I am going to deliver a baby, I’m going to have that woman in my office for seven to eight months; she will have unlimited office visits. I get calls all hours of the day and night. More often than not, I’m getting up in the middle of the night. In Eastern New York, I can tell you, at this time of year, it’s not a particularly fun thing to do: to go out in a blizzard and drive to the hospital, sit by a bedside for hours watching somebody in labor, accomplishing the delivery, hoping to God that everything works out well, as it usually does. And then following her afterward; follow-up visits in the office. Then you wait and you expect that everything’s over. Usually it is over, but sometimes its not. Six or seven years later you suddenly get a request from a lawyer that they want the medical records because the baby has a problem of some sort. That doesn’t mean you’re responsible, but this nation is set up in such a way that families, if they have a deformed or an unhealthy child for any reason, and health care costs being what they are…You have no recourse; you have no source of funds other than going back and suing the people who did the delivery in the first place……Or, I can do an abortion. I can work in an abortion clinic. I work 9 to 5; I’m never bothered at night; I never have to go out on weekends; I more money than my obstetrician brethren. And I don’t have to face the liability. That’s a big factor, a huge perk.”
