Planned Parenthood<\/a> has been caught in plenty of illegal acts that prove the organization is all about the bottom line. From Medicaid fraud<\/a> to negotiating pricing for fetal body parts<\/a>, there seems to be nothing off limits for Planned Parenthood as a way to make money, except for actually caring for women.<\/p>\n

For a company that has built an empire off of women’s bodies, Planned Parenthood does very little to actually help women, though they do a very good job of spinning the facts. The puppet masters at Planned Parenthood don’t care about women, and they prove it every day.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0Protecting Rapists.<\/strong>\u00a0Despite the fact that all 50 states have mandatory laws requiring facilities like Planned Parenthood to report even the suspicion of rape, Planned Parenthood has failed women and girls by failing to alert authorities.<\/p>\n

By not reporting the possibility of rape or incest in at least 15 known cases<\/a>, Planned Parenthood stood to make more money. Girls were brought in by abusive step-fathers, coaches, foster siblings, fathers, kidnappers, and older boyfriends for abortions, and Planned Parenthood collected the money, committed the abortions, and took additional money for birth control, knowing that if these victims became pregnant again, their abusers would bring them back to Planned Parenthood.<\/p>\n

Planned Parenthood didn’t follow parental notification laws — which would have allowed the abuse to be discovered, and staff didn’t alert authorities even when directly told about the abuse. In one case, when a mother discovered the abuse and brought her daughter to Planned Parenthood, she was told by staff that it was too much of a “hassle” to report it. In other instances, families sued Planned Parenthood for failing to protect their children and allowing the abuse to continue. This is a shameful disservice to those girls, women, and their children, and proves that Planned Parenthood’s care and concern\u00a0stops when the abortion check has cleared.<\/p>\n

Undercover investigations<\/a> by Live Action further prove this.<\/p>\n

2. Lying about Prenatal Development.<\/strong>\u00a0Planned Parenthood believes it can get away with lying to the women in its targeted market. Even founder Margaret Sanger thought little of the women she was marketing birth control to, referring to them as “feeble-minded.” This mistreatment and disrespect of women continues today, as Planned Parenthood needs to keep women and girls in the dark about prenatal development<\/a>\u00a0to continue pulling in profits and paychecks. Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards makes nearly a million dollars a year<\/a>.<\/p>\n
