People start to exist, when they take a breathe outside of the womb. 

We do know it would happen, because we already have huge problems with overcrowded foster care systems, poor who can't get or can't afford quality health care for their children, mental health issues that go unaddressed and a myriad of other issues. It isn't just one thing. What makes you rationally think that adding a huge amount of new people into the system won't just compound the issues we already have? Two and two will always equal four. If you have a problem and keep piling onto that problem, it's just gonna get bigger and bigger. 

Right now, abortions are relatively well regulated. Risks are fairly low, but as in any surgery unexpected complications can always arise. I'm willing to accept responsibility as a taxpayer for those complications, if your side is solely willing to accept the complications that would arise from the complications in illegal abortions that are not regulated and the responsibility of all the new kids put into the system, if Roe vs. Wade is overturned. I think we just compromised on something! Maybe we should be elected into congress. Things might actually get accomplished.

That was beautifully explained.

So a 39 week pregnancy is, to you, not a human being? How about a pregnancy that goes long, say 42 weeks? Is that also not human to you?

Also Mike's take was a beautiful bunch of unscientific horse [BLEEP].
