Nationalized Healthcare = Death Of Abortion Rights

Below is an advertisement that has been airing recently, pushing socialized medicine for the US. (funny that they avoid calling it “socialized” because they know most people don’t want that).

If you are pro-choice on abortion, then advocating for socialized healthcare is a recipe for disaster. Follow the logic for a moment. Let’s say Progressive (socialist) Democrats are successful at unleashing their command and control utopia on the civilian population. The long term result will be the death of private medicine (among many other private markets). No problemo, some say, because healthcare is a right and only the government can properly secure that right at any cost.

The unintended consequence would be that over the long run, the only place where an abortion would be available is inside the national health system, leaving only the black market for women who wish to remain anonymous and undocumented by the state, (think very young scared girls and cheating spouses).

Then take it one step further, and consider for a moment how long state run abortion services would remain in business after the political pendulum swings back in the conservative direction (or do you think that Republicans will never be in power ever again?) At that point, the pro-lifers will only have to turn off the spigot at one source to eliminate most safe abortion options.

Think hard about that my dear Democrat pro-choicers. This massive power you are proudly granting yourselves will one day be turned against you, and you will only have yourselves to blame.

Isn’t it better to keep that kind of power out of the hands of government all together?
