I believe that this solution won't work. I believe that more people will just become pregnant for the easy money. I believe that this will make Italy go into debt or further if they already are in debt. I do believe that the United States have more abortions, but we also have more people and as greater land mass. I know that people in the United Stats will keep having kids so that they can have the government programs pay for a lot of what they need to survive. I do know that a lot of people of low-income families will spend their money on cigarettes, going out, lottery, and other unessential items and let the government pay for all of their food and some of their rent. I believe that they could learn how to spend their money more wise and that they then could be able to keep their child and not get an abortion. I believe that if they do this, that Italy could spend their fund on more useful programs like education.

Italian region to pay women not to have abortions
A northern Italian region will not pay women from low-income families to not have an abortion. They will receive $5,500 a year and about $306 per month for the first 18 months. They only will get the money if they change their mind about getting the abortion because of economic reasons. They created a $6.1 million budget to help with the amount of abortions that occur in the Lombardy Region of Italy that borders Switzerland. They want to try to eliminate as many obstacles for the child to be born as possible and believed that the best way to start was with people who can't afford a child. The option to accept the check will be prevented to the women when they go in for the consultations before an abortion. They believe this is a short-term solution to a long-term problem. The fund is called "Nasko" after the Italian word "Nasco" which means "I'm being born." There was about 128,000 abortions performed in Italy last year. England and Whales had 195,743 and the United States had 846,181 in 2006.
