“We believe unequivocally, like the majority of Americans, that every woman should have access to quality health care services, including safe and legal abortion — regardless of where she lives, how much money she makes, or how she is insured.” - Bernie Sanders

What’s wrong with this quote? Ask a socialist and she’ll probably tell you two things. First, that Bernie Sanders never said this; the quote actually comes from Hillary Clinton’s presidential platform in 2016. And second, that I omitted a single word: “reproductive.”
