There would be no need for the surgical procedure of abortion, if contraception was more effective and easily available.The numbers of people against prevention and contraception are few in number and severely misguided. However, that doesn't keep the left from inflating and amplifying those numbers for political gain in their defense of abortion.I believe we need to hold the right wing more accountable for any perceived, cognitive dissonance.I don't have time (again) for a lengthy intro to this subject so I have to be brief.
A lot of comments are being made from all sides of the abortion issue - that the legality of abortion would be or should be a decision reverted to or left up to the States, if or when Roe V Wade is overturned.
I completely disagree with that position and here is why.
The U.S. Constitution (5th and 14th Amendments) clearly says that all persons (not only citizens) under U.S. Jurisdiction are entitled to the Equal Protections of our laws. The Constitution does not allow for that clause to be modified by or to be deviated from 'State by State.'
If Roe v Wade is overturned under the established principle that "personhood" begins at and by conception (using fetal homicide laws for example) . . . then the "personhood" of any children in the womb is automatic in EVERY State and so is their rights as persons under our Constitution, also going to be automatic.
All CDZ rules apply.
Why do they have a problem with Both, an ounce of prevention And a pound of cure?

The right wing, has a problem with that.
No, I don't see the general group known as the "right wing" having a problem with that. Only those who are very religious do. You must be more careful with your generalizations.
the religious left does not have a problem with an ounce of prevention, to prevent Any perceived need, for the abortion of a fellow human being.
It's not the belief in contraception that poses a problem on either side of the issue. It's the PRACTICE of using it effectively. Even if birth control is used every single time (and we all know it won't be) it's still never 100% effective - even when it is used.
That's why the claim that using birth control will result in NO need for abortions is just plain false.
