I'm Pleased

I'm not even sure the 20 pro-Life states are Republican, once the whole abortion issue gets obviated by allowing state control.
While I've seen countless arguments over the abortion issue, those that actually wax nostalgic for the situation prior to Roe are relatively few and far between. Good work.

Your argument also seems to suggest that geographical mobility is easy as pie. Sure, it's easy enough for us rich lawyers to move to Indiana, Utah, or CA (at least theoretically). But it may not be so easy for everyone on the economic strata to do so, and that's part of the reason why (as it was before Roe) an underground, illegal, and unsafe cottage industry would likely spring up in those 20 or so states.

So, no, I'm not so sure that the issue would "go away."
