How could they possibly have lost more than they gained? Abortion has been legal nationwide for 40 years.
All the momentum since the decision has been on the side of those seeking to restrict access as opposed to expanding it -which was not the case before. Abortion may be legal -but it has gotten to the point that it has become merely technically legal for most of the country. On the ground, it is as if the decision was never rendered.
But how is this worse for abortion rights than if it were still illegal and we were fighting to have it legalized?
That's like saying capitalists should ask themselves whether they've lost more than they've gained because a one-sided debate launched by a socialist minority wants to change things.
