What if Americans, in increasing numbers ,start going to India and
China to get abortions or stem cell transplants for curing diseases?There are no legal restrictions to these procedures in those countries that I know of.How would the Republican Fundamentalists deal with this "problem"?

3. I remember reading here
awhile ago, that someone was putting a bill forward that would deny re-entry to anyone that did this.

Unfortunately, I don't remember the details of it...like who proposed it.

4. i have said before that if the theocratic right wishes to be consistent...
we must also make in vitro fertilization illegal (fertilized eggs are often destroyed)

and should also take steps to ensure rich women do not leave the country for abortions:

pregnancy test at border

and (if positive) another test upon return to the country

with investigation and possible prosecution if no longer positive and no child with the mother.

Let 'em try to sell THAT to those white rich republican women with teenage daughters

6. many americans along the border have explored going to mexico
to get dental work done. i know the winter texans in s. texas really pump up the mexican economy every winter. i don't think this is far fetched at all. with skyrocketing healthcare costs here in the US, people may HAVE to look abroad for healthcare procedures.

my mother in law is planning a trip to india to get dental work done. she has enough mileage on her card to get her to the moon. that is how she is financing the trip.
