yes - - 

The Supreme Court should   

1 - Throw out Roe v Wade and

2 - declare that the Tenth Amendment throws the issue to the individual states or the people... e.g. get the federal government out of the abortion issue.  

Pleas read again:

Article the twelfth [Amendment X] - The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

The Constitution does not delegate the power to regulate abortion to the United States. Therefore...

If the question is thrown to the people in the form of a referendum, either the "pro-choice" or the "right-to-life" citizens are going to be losers.  Civilized society will be the loser in all cases.

In my opinion, the best case is a permitting of abortion only in cases of rape, incest, or the physical health of the mother.  And, such NOT being at the expense of the taxpayer.  In NO CASE shall the federal goevernment be involved.

If we keep allowing this argument, we will soon be arguing over extremely late term abortion... the killing of old people... because they are a drag on society and the economy... and the mental health of their children.
