35. That would take tens of millions of women out of the workforce NOW though

And it would take 20 yr for their children to replace them. Long before those 20 years are up the US would be a 3rd World country.

And even without contraceptives and abortion, women aren't going to have more kids. They'll simply stop dating men altogether.

I'm not saying you're wrong that that's what the hardcore conservatives want, but their plan is bat shit crazy.
