[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The abortion issue goes beyond the actual medical procedure. It’s a freedom issue because it’s government overreach (something “conservatives” claim to care about). It’s an economic issue because being forced to carry an unplanned pregnancy keeps women from participating in the workforce (even if only for 6 weeks) and hurts our economy which we all benefit from. It’s an education issue because the majority of young women forced to carry unplanned pregnancy don’t go to higher education (which then impacts the jobs they can get which then hurt the economy). It’s a health issue. Just read the stories of women losing their fertility and worse because “exceptions” are vague at best. it’s a health access issue, because where strict abortion bans exist, OBGYNs are leaving and hospitals are closing. And it’s a CRIME issue. Women are most at risk from domestic abuse in pregnancy.[/quote] +1 Women are living, breathing people who have the right to control their own lives and bodies. They take precedence over any [u]potential[/u] children. It's disgusting that people feel like they can force women to carry pregnancies and give birth against their will. It's a form of physical violence against women. [/quote]
