But a look at the social science literature surrounding the U.S.

    Another post with the hatred symbol being removed from society. I enjoyed reading this article just as much as the last about the Confederate flag being removed.
  •

  •  
    The flag does represent a rebellion against the American government.

    If planned parenthood were to be defunded, it is predicted that the government would end up spending more in the long run on public assistance. Planned parenthood provides many services for women, one of them being birth control. Statistics in this article show that women who used birth control were easily able to finish school, find jobs, and create a steady life before having children. Defunding this organization would cost America more money in the bigger scheme of things.
