Since abortion’s major purpose is birth control, you can’t really say that our population would be 52 million higher today. So many of those would never have been conceived if abortion was not an available “choice”.

No, because we also have regular forms of birth control that don’t involve killing a conceived baby.

Any ideas on the exponential factor to the number? Those 53 million are also our main reproduction age demographic. IMHO as a non professional statistician, half those would be women and of those, 1.5 new births each. So to me the number would be more like 80 million.

Just sayin......
