It is a simple question that goes like this:
In the nearly 30 years since the issuance of the opinion in Roe vs. Wade, considering the millions of dollars spent on lobbying, and countless tens thousands of hours of legislative and court time consumed in 50 states, how many of those efforts wound up in a compromise which allowed a regulatory scheme which stopped one single abortion?
Considering that the opinion allowed 2nd and 3rd trimester regulation, it would seem to me that the efforts to stop the practice should have started with the permissible, instead of going for the whole ball of wax.
