Do you think that an abortion procedure should be as casual as a dental cleaning? Don't you think that there needs to be some sort of checks and balances to ensure that the female (AND MALE) are compelled to exercise some personal responsibility to avoid having to kill an unborn child?
And let's all stop this bull**** battle cry "women's health," this isn't woman's health, this is the health of an unborn child.
Again, I am not saying abortion should be outright banned or illegal, I am just saying that this procedure has become a bull**** bailout for irresponsible people who have no regard for their actions and its consequences. You want to be an adult and make a baby, then fine. But the consequences should be a bit stiffer than having to take a day off from the tanning booth to get that nuisance sucked from your uterus.
You clearly have never had an abortion or had to deal with one, it is by far one of the toughest decisions a girl will ever have to make. No one takes it lightly.
why are her choices and reasons any ones business but her own?
She's killing a human being. You didn't see John Wayne Gacy protected behind a right-to-privacy cloak, now did ya?
I know the comparison seems absurd, but these "couples" are procreating, they are making another human being; an abortion should come with some level of consequence.
Again, the majority of my stance on this issue pertains to those who wait to get their abortions. Late term abortions are, by definition, murder.

I understand it is not an easy decision for most, my comment was in response to how cavalier the other posted made the procedure sound.
And since you brought that up, I do know of 2 females who have admitted having an abortion, and they don't seem as bothered as one might think.
If a woman needs an abortion, i say get it. There doesn't need to be a tax on it.
I am considered to be a "staunch conservative." As such, I completely agree with your statement. I'd go further and say I have absolutely no problem with my tax dollar, being used to provide free abortions to whomever wanted them.
If we can lower the number of people in this country we wouldn't need so many social services. Like it or not, there are just MANY people in this country having children who cannot afford them. Not only financially, but morally, et al. Lets end the problem before it occurs.
Totally constitutional since anything, including inaction, can be taxed now. I say we go for it. We're always taxing things to deter behavior in our society, this is no different.
1. Republicans don't raise taxes.
2. Most people don't support abortion outlaw, which this would essentially do. So it will never pass.
But if you're so inclined to try in your state, feel free. I wouldn't support it on a state or federal level.
I don't understand why liberals think their pet projections should be exempt from tax. They want to tax fast food products to deter behavior, I say we tax their abortions.
Really? Which liberals have recommended a 10,000% tax on Big Macs?
