Frequently, pro-abortionists use the argument that a woman has the right to decide what to do with her own body. If we buy that argument, then shouldn't we also say that drug users have the right to decide what to do with their own bodies? Shouldn't smokers and alcoholics be allowed to decide what to do with their own bodies?
I know, smoking and alcohol are both legal. But they are also heavily taxed. So why can't we heavily tax abortion?
Mind you, I am NOT advocating an abortion tax. Rather, I am pointing out how obscene sin taxes are. We ignore justifications for some activities due to individual rights, but then support taxes on activities where we as a society deem them socially unacceptable, or dangerous (although the danger is strictly to the individual).
