Controversial idea of the day:
Was
legalising abortion responsible for falling crime rates 18 years later? Two professors
claim to have found a causal link; namely that abortion reduces the number of
children born in poverty, who are most likely to turn to crime as they grow up.
This report has raised hackles on both sides; not only of the usual
religious demagogues but also of left-liberal types who argue that such views
may justify eugenics against the poor.
