Speaking of abortion, yesterday I was reading an article in a local paper hear in Central Jersey about how the number of abortions were down in the 90's nationwide. This article could have been written by the Associated Press, anyway the article gave credit to the wide availability of contraceptives as the primary reason why the number of abortions are down. To their credit the article briefly and I mean very briefly mentioned other factors but gave a lot of credit to the wide availability of contraceptives. Absolutely no where in the article was it mentioned that tougher enforcement of DWI laws and maybe even enforcement of underage drinking laws, that a unintended consequence is a lower rate of unintended pregnancies. Which would suggest that a real war on drugs would be a good thing for our society.
