I expect eventually Roe will be over turned and so will Griswold ( the right to privacy). The authoritarians want no right to privacy. Obamacare goes a very long way in that direction. By allowing a law that essentially hands our bodies over to private Corps. to do with as they see fit for profit was a huge mistake. Instead, healthcare should have been enshrined along with privacy as a right not a paid for privilege to be forced on us.
Well we shall see, the Supremes are on it. I think this is one of those pivotal cases as it were.
