Episode 31 - What's Going On With Roe v Wade?

THOMAS JEFFERSON, 1789: "It may be proved that no society can make a perpetual constitution, or even a perpetual law. The earth belongs always to the living generation. They may manage it then, and what proceeds from it, as they please, during their usufruct. They are masters too of their own persons, and consequently may govern them as they please."
