One of the main arguments that abortion advocates use is that making abortion legal will make it safe. Otherwise, they say, women will just be led into home abortions, which are unsafe.

Despite the economic recession, which we would expect to cause an increase in abortions, Michigan’s abortion rate decreased dramatically in 2009.
