Abortion is a good thing for society, don't you think?

After watching Republicans argue over the [universal] healthcare bill stating that it should not include funding for abortion, I did some research. Turns out that abortions are high in the south, where religion and poverty are rampant. Turns out there is a direct correlation between crime and abortion rates. Areas with high abortion rates have less crime because the typical woman who has an abortion is a single person who cannot afford to raise her child. Furthermore, single mother children are 50% more likely to be involved in criminal activity. I just find it ironic that Republican senate representatives would argue over [universal] healthcare being bad because it includes funding for abortions...while the lack of abortions leads to more crime..which in turn leads to more government spending and unpleasant living due to higher crime rates. Elected officials should concentrate on what is good for society, not their religious beliefs, especially when the most religious areas happen to be poor and have high abortion rates, don't you think?
