The ones who can't afford it (<200% federal poverty level) are covered in Texas. Friend who gave birth in Austin, TX talked to other mothers in the ward and one was having her second under that. There's lots of programs that cover this. Abortion should be legal, yes, but you won't be out that amount if you don't make enough.
System seems fine, though I think I'd prefer if we completely subsidized childbirth and 12 months after for all (because those are people who will keep us solvent in the future).
