[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 1765956, member: 2189"] What fascinates me about the issue of abortion is the hysteria assigned to it that the problems appears to almost be growing when in fact abortions are [URL='http://www.christianliferesources.com/article/u-s-abortion-statistics-by-year-1973-current-1042'][COLOR=#ff0000][B]on the decline[/B][/COLOR][/URL]. Since it's high of 1.6 million annually in 1990' to just barely over 1 million in 2014'. Which IMO is a very good thing and hoping the trend continues to zero. There are different conclusions as to why that is from strong abortion laws in a handful of states to better education and public knowledge. Regardless of the State and its laws involved, the decline seems steady across the board, which again is a good thing. Personally I'd like to see abortion clinics go out of business by the market actions of no customers coming in the door in need of the service as opposed to some gov't edict handed down using state force to close the doors. I also found it interesting that abortions biggest growth began in the late 70's and enjoyed it's biggest years all through the 1980's and it was about 1992' when the numbers started their decline to where they are today. What is most interesting of this is a result of the other hysteria that the republicans or so called political right is going to end abortion rights. Since 1973' republicans have had numerous opportunities to encroach on abortion law and other than political lip service around election time, they've exuded no real political will to do anything meaningful about abortion itself. The issue has only served as a rallying point for both political sides to herd their respective masses in a meaningless debate that is not intended to go anywhere. Here are numerous sources of abortion in decline with some offering reasons why.
