> Does the public pay for a liposuction that could have been avoided with diet and exercise? Does the public pay for emergency treatment of someone who's in a car accident because they were driving drunk? Right now we do, directly or indirectly. If someone doesn't have insurance, emergency care is still performed without regard to whether it's the recipient's fault that they need it. If they can't pay the bill it is passed along to other patients in the form of higher prices. > Does the public, including those who find abortion morally reprehensible, pay for those abortions? Right now the public, including those who find war morally reprehensible, are forced to pay for wars. I think the anti-abortionists can manage. If you find it morally reprehensible to perform an abortion to save the mother's life, then if you are ever in the situation where you'll die if you don't get an abortion, you are free to refuse the procedure. Your personal moral code does not give you the right to choose whether strangers live or die.
