A GP performing an abortion in the 26 Counties is paid 450 Euros a throw from the public purse.
A GP caring for a patient and the child in her womb until birth is reputed to be paid approximately half that sum.
Between January 1st and December 31 2019 Official Statistics reveal 6,666 legal abortions were performed on women in the jurisdiction.
I reckon that comes to 299,970 Euros. Small Potatoes if you are Joe Duffy who has built a career on the handful of children killed (largely by British gunfire) in Dublin at Easter 1916), for the RTE broadcaster was paid over 400,000 Euros in 2008 alone. But a nice little earner for the GPS nevertheless, and Hippocratic Oath be Buggered!
Now that Assisted Dying is speeding towards the Statute Book GPs should be making a killing before the natural expected birth and the natural death of the human individual.
Is it merely a coincidence that some readers of the Book of Revelations reckon that 666 is the mark of the Beast?
Perhaps inflation has overtaken it?
