Fortunately, and due by a strange twist to the abortion movement, back
alley abortion will never be the same. The majority of abortions are
performed by a suction apparatus now that doctors claim anyone can operate
safely and that is commercially available. I'm certain that free
enterprise being what it is, most back alley abortions will provide this
minimum and prices will be competitive enough to allow it to any class.
Knitting needles just won't bring in the business anymore.
