As I said, IUD would be opt-out, so people still have a choice. Maybe free condoms too.
Racist and sexist laws (affirmative action) don't help anyhow, because they can't be enforced. An employer merely has to say the candidate didn't seem to be a good fit. I'd rather the employer be honest about why they don't hire particular people than be dishonest. The outcome won't change.
Our laws aren't evenly applied either. Hooters doesn't hire an equal amount of men, or old or unattractive women. What about "Ladies night" at the bar. That's completely illegal. Personally I have no problem with it. Privately owned property and business should be able to decide how to conduct business; same as how I discriminate about who is allowed in my home. There is zero meaningful difference.
The facts presented by FC are disturbing as abortion is a nasty thing, but I can see how it could contribute to lower crime rates. My whole thing on the abortion debate is that we're talking about a point in time that is too late. It isn't the root problem. The root problem is conceiving of unwanted children in the first place. Discussion should mostly be focused there, since addressing the root of a problem is more effective than addressing the branches.
