I never compared portugal with the UK or any other country, but recent statistics showed one or two years after legalization abortions per women increased, considering we are in a crisis and few people have means to provide for a full family this is justified.

Who are you to decide how women should use abortion? It's none of your business. Even if it's a tax thing, people bring lung cancer on themselves. Should they pay out-of-pocket for their treatments? How about diabetics? People who broke a leg in a motorcycle accident?
Also, you're going to have to cite your sources if you want us to believe abortions increased. I simply don't believe you. I had to have an abortion once (I had a dead fetus that didn't want to leave naturally), and it was probably the most physically painful thing I've ever experienced. Do you really think women WANT to have abortions?
Your lines of reasoning have been debunked several times in this thread, among countless other abortion threads on this forum. I understand you're (sort of) pro choice, but you sound a lot like someone who isn't.
