Claims by liberal economist Steven Levitt that abortion, in reducing the number of "unwanted" children, has eliminated significant numbers of the kind of people who commit crimes. Blacks, Latinos, and "White trash".

Just fixing it so that we can see what he meant to say. Ain't the left just full of sweethearts?

Well, given the higher rates of both abortion and crime among black Americans, there does seem to be some statistical merit to the idea.

I’m quite opposed to aborting anybody, but it does seem that the lower socio-economic groups seem to have more abortions.
