There are a lot of things that Medicare pays for, and singling out abortion is a little far fetched. What about Lung Cancer? Say I said that the people with Lung Cancer because they worked in an asbestos mine could get medicare but it served the lousy smokers right and I didnt want to pay for them? Suppose I thought that hysterectomies/vasectomies/tubal ligations were unneccesary and therefore I shouldnt have to pay for them? Suppose I thought that *all* elective surgery shouldnt be paid for out of my pockets? or all perscription drugs? or all pain-killers? The problem grows messier... Laura Creighton utzoo!utcsstat!laura
