4K per employee who wants to kill their baby? What does this have to do with anything?

Can I just get $2500 for killing a puppy?

I'd like to ease into the baby killing if possible.

TIA.

Hmm I bought 2 pairs of tennis shoes from them recently. About $150. Should I return them? Gently used.

Sounds like Dick's trying to clean up after Dick's sporting.

If I worked there, I'd want up to $4,000 per year in travel expenses each year I don't have to have an abortion.

Everyone should put this in perspective: Dick's will save much more than $4k by having an employee abort her baby than paying for the pregnancy and maternal leave and then having the child on insurance.

Dick's is being a real dick in hiding their true motive here. But pro-abortionists will eat it up.

Employees should just lie about being pregnant and take the 4k and free trip to Colorado and when you come back they would never know you were never pregnant.

All pro-life employees of Dicks and all these other companies should DEMAND, the same amount of money for them choosing not to kill their children.

Always blows my mind when a company gets political like this. The sporting goods market is saturated, why would you push customers away? You exist to make money, not play lobbyist!

They hardly pay their people $4k for part time work.

As noted above, having the baby probably costs the company 50k.

No. They aren't.

Currently if you're married, but your spouse has their own insurance, companies will refund (part of) what they aren't paying for your spouse.
If you're single, nope.

F***ing genius. I completely support this. Put these businesses in a position where they have to invade a woman's privacy to verify they aren't getting ripped off.

States need to make it illegal to travel to get an abortion in another state. Just like the laws that punish perverts that travel to other countries to Molest kids. I want all leftists out of my state.

Another thing to do would be to make it illegal for companies to provide benefits like Dicks is doing.
