The do not call list is a way to prevent harassment. If someone came up to you in public, started talking to you, and you told them to go away... if they continued bothering you, you could call the police. Telemarketers are individual harassment purveyors.

They have a right to say what they want, but you don't have to listen to it. Nor do you need to let them use the phone line you pay for or your time that's worth money.

"think abortion should be made illegal, while at the same time opposing all forms of social welfare."

i don't see how that is a contradiction. if you make murder illegal, you have to financially support those would-be murderers?

For those too dumb to use protection or so "unfortunate" as to have had an accident, some of them presumably choose abortion b/c they can't afford to support the child/ren.

So, if you tell them they can't have one, the logic here is that you ought to help them pay for the choice you're making for them.

Wouldn't be as much of a problem if people were more careful about how and with whom they have sex.

Ha! Great list. Obviously they aren't all direct contradictions in the formal sense (people and issues being more complex than that, of course), but I see exactly what you're saying even where I might nitpick.

"i don't see how that is a contradiction. if you make murder illegal, you have to financially support those would-be murderers?"

Yes, you do. Here in America, it's called the "prison system," and it's paid for with taxpayer dollars. It costs $20,000 dollars a year to keep each inmate locked up. Most people are glad to pay that, when they see how much it costs to let murderers run free.

"i don't see how that is a contradiction. if you make murder illegal, you have to financially support those would-be murderers?"

The proper analogy is "if you make murder illegal, you have to financially support their would-be victims".
