“when efforts to limit the supply of abortion have been successful, the impact has been relatively modest”
“But we can also fight abortion, says French, on the demand side. That is, persuading women not to get abortions. They have the ‘right to choose,’ so we can encourage them to choose life. This tactic is already showing success. The abortion rate…is lower now than it was before it was legalized!” - Veith
My wife and I have been directly and/or peripherally involved in efforts to make abortion unpalatable for a quarter century now. It works. It doesn’t mean we don’t need to put meaningful regulations and work to end legal abortion altogether, but it does mean that when we lose (as we too often do), all is not lost.
Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
