liberal abortion laws exist

illiberal abortion laws exist too, in some countries. Maybe in future tests HBD should be split into "is HBD true?" and "do you want HBD to be true?" to avoid this sort of confusion.

But what's politically relevant is whether you favor more liberal abortion laws, more feminism, more tax increases, more HBD.

The government can raise taxes, it can't raise HBD.
