There is no large number of people who ACTIVELY support abortion who are not related to the industry. Do you consider posting to the net as being ACTIVE? Net activity is known as "lip service" and if I did nothing besides post my beliefs to the net I would be guilty of "paying lip service" to the issue. Your statement in parentheses is clearly subjective and can't be addressed without a definition of "fair profit", "excess profit" or some similar term. In fact, it depends on such other factors as undue influence, misrepresentation and other circumstances. Matt Noah
