What about someone who takes a job in a dangerous sweatshop because they have no other feasible option, and then gets killed? What about pollution from that sweatshop causing a series of miscarriages in a village downstream from the water source it pollutes?
Until we address these complicated things, conservatives bloviating about abortions in the USA, and using the state to attempt to control it, is hypocrisy. We all look the other way on a certain amount of death

Nobody is saying all deaths caused by the military are justified.
Nobody is saying it is fair that some people have to work shitty jobs.
Nobody is saying life is fair.
The reality is the problems you are talking about have never been solved by any civilization in history. Ever. I am not saying that we shouldn't try to solve these issues, but you are basically trying to attribute problems as old as humanity to America, which is wrong.
We fix problems when we can, and abortion is an easier thing to fix than the dilemma of nations going to war, or solving poverty once and for all.
