	    Equating "abortion on demand" with "money on demand" shows, in my
	opinion, an extremely simplistic approach to a complicated problem
	which DOES involve (dare I say it) moral VALUES even if Mr cbostrum
	does not want to realize this.
Whoa! Abortion on demand means that the state should pay for your abortion
just for you asking, doesnt it? This, I believe is what LK had in mind.
Given this, I was merely pointing out that not having on abortion on demand
does not mean that the state does not approve of abortion, far from it.
It, again (sigh), only means that they wont do it for you, you have to get
it done with your own money. 
If by abortion on demand LK meant just that the state wont make it illegal
for you to get an abortion, then obviously my remarks are inappropriate, but
I dont believe thats what he meant.
AGAIN, ALL I WAS SHOWING (and effectively i might add) IS THAT THE FACT THAT
THE STATE DOESNT PAY FOR ABORTIONS DOESNT MEAN THAT IT THINKS IT IS NOT OKAY
FOR POOR PEOPLE TO HAVE THEM, UNDERSTAND?
