Romania shows otherwise. Ceaucescu banned abortions and it ended up causing such a crisis and conflict that got overthrown and executed.

I've never heard this argument before, but it does seem to be accepted by some.

I suppose it makes sense to a degree, but I'll have to do more digging.

Well, I'm not sure whether or not the U.S.'s change is related to abortion, but in Romania the banning of abortion definitely caused social problems.
