It’s no secret that Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is a staunch supporter of legalized abortion. What is not as well known are Ginsburg’s somewhat disturbing ideas about abortion’s nexus with the subject of population control, which Mollie Hemingway looks into over at the Federalist.

In an interview published this week by Elle, Ginsburg argues that access to abortions should be readily available to both poor and rich women, but more so the former because they can’t afford the cost of a new child. “It makes no sense as a national policy to promote birth only among poor people,” the Supreme Court justice says.
