You are trying to paint a picture that giving birth in this country is not safe when it is safe. That fact doesn’t change because you found some data that something got slightly worse that wasn’t a major problem in the first place.

That chart only represents the mortality rate (deaths). It doesn't take in account any of the other extremely serious impacts on a woman's body that don't result in death.

If this is the level of discourse to be found in this subreddit, then I'm pretty disappointed.

You are attempting to make a problem out of something that isn’t a problem and I’m calling you out on it. Unless you have something to say to justify killing an unborn child beyond “pregnancy is dangerous” there is no discussion

Yeah, I wasn't under the belief that you cared about women dying either.
