abortion

[C. G. Estabrook]

There are in fact a good number of people (I'm one) who agree with Nat
Hentoff on abortion; and they're not necessarily "very religious."  It's
as arbitrary to say that one is human only outside the womb as it is to
say that one is so only with a low melanin count.

A poll of CEOs of principal corporations would show majority support for
abortion.  And few of them would be explicitly racist or sexist.  (They
want their daughters to "succeed" as well as their sons.)  On the "social
issues" these captains of industry would be solidly with "the left." What
I want is a party that will go after the issues that the said captains
have succeeded in removing from the debate, issues of the economy and
power.
