Gen Y and Abortion
From Gallup today:
Those aged 18-29 feel differently about abortion than their parents and, to a lesser degree, their grandparents. Oddly, they are more conservative. Of all age groups, those under 30 have the highest percentage (23%) of those who believe abortion should be illegal in all cases. Ages 30-65 have a 17% share believing that abortion should always be prohibited, and for those older than sixty-five, the percentage is 21%.
It will be interesting to see how those ideological differences play out politically and socially in the coming decades.
