Whatever conclusion the article led to for you, the conclusion of the author is made quite clear by the first sentence of the article: To understand the abortion agenda today we need look no further than its most influential booster, one of the founders of Planned Parenthood, Margaret Sanger The author clearly believed that Sanger's beliefs are reflected in the current leadership and membership of Planned Parenthood. Unfortunately, neither facts nor logic are presented to support this conclusion: Sanger's beliefs are described in enthusiastic detail, but the the connection between those beliefs and those of the organization today is simply assumed. If the people who lead Planned Parenthood today were advocating forced or coerced abortion, or sterilization of the poor and/or of minorities, or if they were actively involved in racist/fascist organizations, etc., etc., that would of course be cause for concern. But it is difficult to see how the effort to make sure that women who don't want babies don't have to have them would fit into such an agenda. The Robertson case is a bit different: fundamentalist domination of the anti-abortion movement is something that is going on now, not back when the movement began, and it is legitimate to ask whether the anti-abortion movement is trying to use the power of the state to impose a religious view. China's "one child" policy is of course utterly perverse, both in design and implementation.

ROFL Sanger wasn't even a Nazi- do a little more research before you make up your mind. Or my GOODNESS, we'll have to come to the conclusion that maybe you are really biased or something. You read ONE article and you THEN state what the article says as FACT!!!! AMAZING. > And it leads me to wonder whether the other founders were also Nazi's? < Why don't you start with a good biography of her- written by a reputable professional. I can recommend one if need be.
