RE: The Voluntaryist Position On Abortion (Are Children In Utero Self-Owners?)
I'm not sure either. I use it whenever somebody suggests if we don't like abortions we shouldn't get one.
My response assumes the person-hood of the fetus.
In the absence of the state, the market for parental rights (buying and selling of babies), combined with the cost of surgery would almost completely end the practice.
I've been working on a big piece about this, but it's heavy going, so I keep putting off finishing it. Consider me spurred on :)
Awesome. It sounds like I pretty much agree with you on everything, too. And excellent point about the fetus assuming responsibility for self-defense. Haha. It really kind of displays and embodies how asanine some of the counterarguments can be.
Looking forward to your article!!
