Because that 100% legal medical procedure is also 100% optional. Barring terminations that are a medical necessity, which would likely be covered and are performed in hospitals daily, the issue most people have is with elective abortion, not termination of a deadly fetus.
If some people (not "most", as you erroneously wrote) have an issue with it, that's their problem. Others have an issue with having to pay into the pool to give men vasectomies, because they're not men. Others don't like to provide health coverage for people who catch the pox because they screwed the wrong person. Yet again, some individuals believe that if you catch cancer, it's karmic retribution, and you should fork out forthe chemo and radiotherapy out of pocket [8|] .

Ending a healthy pregnancy is not a health issue, it's a social issue.
That's your opinion, one that isn't shared by the majority of the medical body. It's a question of life and death: a woman shouldn't become an incubator for a life she doesn't want to bring into the world just because it's gestating in there. Your sentiments on the matter are personal, not universal. If an unwanted pregnancy is going to make her existence difficult or impossible, if it's going to cripple her emotionally, physically, mentally, it's a health issue. In the end, it doesn't matter what you think:it remains between the patient and her doctor. Because of this, it's a health issue. I'm so sick and tired of people like you trying to infringe on other people's rights just to push their politics upon everyone else... leave us aborting bitches alone :-) .
PS: and don't forget this... it's not because a pregnancy is 'healthy' that the woman is going to be okay. Childbirth is one of the most dangerous thing any human being can do.
