Ultrasounds before abortions

The chairman of the Alabama Senate Health Committee said he doesn’t see a conflict of interest between his support for a bill that would require physicians to perform ultrasounds on women seeking abortions and his company, which sells the type of equipment the bill would require.

Don’t worry, Sen. Greg Reed, R-Jasper, we see it.

  1. As long as he’s in charge, there will be no conflict with his interests. You can’t deny there’s a certain logic to that.

  2. Let’s get this straight – is he proposing that the government should pay for such ultrasound tests?

    If so, it’s socialized medicine; what’s to stop a poor woman getting a free ultrasound by pretending to want an abortion?

    If not, this proposal allows the government to decide how a person spends her healthcare dollars. That’s socialism, surely?

    I really cannot believe some of this stupidity.
