I’m sure everyone has encountered a young person, pregnant working at a minimum wage who does not want to have children finding themselves pregnant and wanting an abortion ASAP.

When it first happened to me, I naively thought that someone unemployed or working and barely getting by would have no problem finding some gov’t or private agency to “pay” for their abortion.

I was surprised, at least here in Georgia, to learn that such was not the case. You want an abortion, we’ll direct you to where you can have it, but it will cost you $800.

In the first instance the person scraped up the money, (not from the father), in the second she had the child and later adopted it out.

Consider if the gov’t paid for all abortions, no questions asked, same as they would pay for normal deliveries abortions would sky rocket.

If the gov’t is going to pay for abortions, why not cosmetic surgery also, or any other “elective” precedure. I find it odd almost surreal to consider pregnancy as a disease.

Yes, it comes down to who is paying for it. The left thinks that the SCOUS ruling is a ruling against abortions.It’s not. It’s on who must pay for them.

I know in some States insurance also has to pay for sex-change operations also.
