80. I don't think the solution is that difficult either
If society did more to encourage abstinence while still educating and providing birth control and just came right out and said it's time to be more responsible and stop practicing birth control after the fact when it's available beforehand...well, it would go a very long way. Encouraging adoption is another thing that would help the division on this issue. No decent person is going to be offended by someone who has been raped or molested getting an abortion. Same thing if there is a compelling medical reason for one. But let's just face it...that's not the majority of abortion cases, not by a long shot. More often than not it is just plain old irresponsible and unsafe sex, which we ALL know is BAD NEWS. Our society has become irresponsible and prone to making excuses for behavior they know they shouldn't be taking part in...like unsafe sex. That's the problem.

Okay, flame away...
