Abortion doesn't deserve an amendment

The healthcare bill that passed through the House of Representatives included a provision that limited a woman’s coverage for an abortion. This goes against the landmark Roe vs. Wade decision, but that doesn’t matter when special interest groups want their way. No law exists that makes abortion illegal; therefore new laws shouldn’t try to swoop in and close this gap. Pro-choice is the standard. If Congress tried to pass a law abolishing it, or the Supreme Court voted to overturn Roe vs. Wade, the resulting dissention would make the healthcare discussion look tame in comparison.
Abortion shouldn’t be covered under any healthcare plan. That’s an obvious conclusion. However, it deserves nothing more than a subcategory. Devoting a separate amendment to it is overkill. A woman should be allowed to pay for an abortion as long as it’s before a certain point in the pregnancy. If her activities don’t harm the lives of anyone else, the government should stay out of her business. It’s on her conscious to accept the moral complications regarding her decision. Remember those last two words: her decision. Nightmares could ensue thinking about Nancy Pelosi potentially being concerned about what goes on in your uterus.
Capitol Hill should have more important things to worry about than the comings and goings of our personal lives.
