1) Why would potential mothers be willing to bring a child into this economy? It's an economy that doesn't care for their mother or the child. Maybe fix the run-down capitalist hellhole that exists and see if people would actually want to raise a child in it.

2) Claiming that the US could have had more money from wage slaves if the wage slaves weren't aborted is pretty low down. Aw shucks, if only we had more poor people to do all the stuff that keeps society running for minimum wage...

3) You can't legislate morality. Morality isn't objective, for one, and most people disagree that abortion is evil. These people are so out of touch to think that most people want less freedoms.

4) “But even in economic terms, the costs of abortion vastly outweigh any claimed benefits.” Spoken like someone that has never had to weigh the options of an abortion. The claimed benefits include not having to have/raise a child conceived by your rapist. So, how much would YOU pay to not have to raise your rapist's child?
