Simple solution to the "Personhood Initiative"

From http://www.personhoodinitiative.com/ectopic-personhood.html

"The inalienable right to life possessed by every human being is present from the moment of initial formation, and all human beings shall be entitled to the equal protection of persons under the law."


Very simple solution if this initiative ever passes:

Every month that every woman has sex, they should take out a life insurance policy worth $1M in the event of death. It matters not that the woman has not tested positive for pregnancy, because there could easily be a fertalized egg, Woops, I mean a person, who has not yet attached to the wall of the uterus.

Every month, what previously was a small nusence for women will suddenly become PAY DAY!!!!!

Every month the woman can walk into the insurance agent and say "Gosh Darn it, Baby Zygot died. That will be $1M please. Thank you. See you next month."

ETA:

Additionaly, You can have the child tax credit for up to 12 children a year right???

Talk about a can of worms rolling down a slippery slope.

And mom and family should be able to receive disability monies for zygot because
he/she definitely does not reach the standard of a developmentally stable child.
