An interesting trend to note is how much lower the abortion rate is in other westen countries that are both more liberal and have legalized abortion. Holland, for instance, has the lowest abortion rate at 6.5 per thousand (vs the US at 2nd highest with 21.3 per thousand). I think the reason for this is two-fold. First, they have more educational social program which helps new mothers understand and accept what they're getting into. Second, abortion isn't talked about so often, so its not so right in your face.

Interesting, to me, to note that "liberal morally corrupt" countries have better morals than us in many cases.
