467: Does abortion qualify as "healthcare"?
from Beer and Conversation with Pigweed and Crowhill · host Pigweed and Crowhill
While drinking a local stout, the boys ask whether abortion is really healthcare and then discuss that and related issues. Healthcare is generally understood as the maintenance or improvement of health through prevention, diagnosis, treatment, or management of illness, injury, and other physical or mental impairments. How does abortion fit in with that? Pigweed and Crowhill evaluate the reality against the propaganda and the pro-choice slogans. Is it really "my body, my choice"? Do people really want to affirm Roe v. Wade? Is it actually a "conversation with my doctor"? "Keep your laws off my body!" Is that a legit legal standard? So where should we draw the line? When does a fetus become a human with protected rights?
