[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure this is what you're asking, but one tactic used lately is to make it too expensive to perform abortions. There have been articles about how in Mississippi they added new rules and regulations for the clinics and doctors, forcing them to close. I believe in Virginia (could be wrong about the state) they have also proposed new rules to force the clinics to function like hospitals, effectively forcing many to close.

So I guess I mean pass laws to limit supply or availability, instead of making the act itself illegal.[/quote]

OP here

This is a good idea.  It makes sense that if abortions were expensive - and it was well-known that they are expensive - many women and girls would be much more careful.  Although, if it was TOO expensive, the number of back alley abortions would rise, so there would certainly be a fine line.[/quote]

I've never actually had an abortion, but from what I remember of some research I did for a paper in college, abortions were running about five hundred dollars? That was ten years ago, and I believe was without insurance. So they're kind of a reach for a lot of people.[/quote]
