I've been hearing the argument that the easing of abortion restrictions in the '70s has caused the supply of young liberals to suffer, since it's that side of the political aisle who gets the majority of abortions. I've had my suspicions about that argument, but maybe there's something to it.It's true. I saw some statistical study by an economitrician (sp?)done on it a few years ago. IIIRC there was a 45-55% chance the child would grow up to vote liberal and a 5-10% chance they would vote conservative-@50% wouldn't vote. There was even a thread here on FR that showed how if every black baby (90% of whom would presumably vote democrat) that had been aborted was allowed to live thy would outnumber the population of 5 states (I think it was the Dakotas, Montana, Wyoming, and Kansas). Hoisted on their own poitard. Ironically, if it wasn't for abortion we would now be deep in the throes of socialism.
