Of course we don't do that now.

I just want to know what could or should happen if abortion became illegal.

If we have obligations as an ethical society to not kill human beings at any stage of development does that obligation end there?

There are always unintended consequences with any decision.  Legalizing abortion with few restrictions could be said to have the unintended consequence of promoting abortion as birth control.  Ok...so it becomes illegal.

Lets explore the potential unintended consequences of that.  The babies life is not the only life in the equation.  The potential impact on society could be large.
