Abortion Law

General Description
The Abortion Law is a non cancellable policy in Democracy 3 that controls your preference in terms of abortion. You can either move towards banning it or encouraging it.

In Game Description
Few areas of policy incite stronger emotions that the debate over abortion. On the 'pro-life' side, are arguments about the rights of an unborn child, and arguments are often made from a religious standpoint. On the 'pro-choice' side, there is the argument that the State should not have more say over what a woman does with her body than she does. Making any change to the State's position on abortion requires a hefty amount of political capital.
