Succinctly and without a pejorative connotation, a fiscal conservative doesn't support subsidizing the cost of living for people who do not make enough at their current job(s) or do not work.
But by supporting legislation that limits women's access to, or information on pregnancy options and opposing government payments to an insurance group that covers the medical procedure of abortion, more children are being forced into that demographic. Herein lies the fiscal obligation of a pro-life vote: demanding unwanted children into this world means you're fiscally responsible for aspects of raising those children.
Personal beliefs on a woman's right to choose, the moment that life starts and the fight for the unborn child are not being debated here. Fiscal conservatives voting pro life should take a long look at your family and religious values vs. fiscal beliefs and ask if they are at odds with each other. Evaluate the long term costs of raising a child to maturity: financial, societal and emotional. Part of poverty is a societal cycle of children requiring the community to raise them.
Truly pro life is truly concerned with the life of the child. Accepting responsibility from child to functional adult, the first 18-25 years, is easily done by supporting appropriate socialist programs and public education legislation.
When fiscal conservatives take pro-life votes they demand that children be born to financially and/or emotionally unprepared parents. Conservatives then should also advocate for more social workers, school employees and an increase in government spending. The repercussions of this conservative social belief should lead to a long-term fiscal commitment.

Maybe it should lead to a long-term fiscal commitment. The rethuglicans are simply playing to a religious base with these policies. The long term ramifications of this are unknown, but can't be good.
