Sorry, but it is NOT the reality that women will not be allowed to have abortions (the portion or your post to which I was commenting).  Abortions are, and will be even after "trigger laws", legal in the US.  Every woman is allowed to have an abortion if they are willing to travel. If she wants to kill her baby, she can.

Bad grammar leads to bad arguments. it SHOULD read, "If she wants to kill her baby, she MAY."

Whether she CAN is up for debate.

If you take the cost of an abortion, and add the cost and complexity of travel and lodging, that is called a "price increase." Also a difficulty increase - the cost of an abortion is raised both financially and logistically. The less socially competent a woman is, the more logistical difficulty is going to dissuade/prevent her from aborting. and it is the less socially competent ones that raise the violent skreet criminals.

This is really text-book simple stuff. 

Under what we call the "law of supply and demand," raising prices lowers demand.

You can actully google this stuff - its widely accepted by economists. Don't take my word - look into it for yourself. "Supply and demand" - just put that into any search engine.
