both the illegality and unethical nature of doing such a thing would open the doctor up to a huge malpractice lawsuit... which would cost the state even more money...
But...does abortion count as "delivery?" I suppose it would depend on what type of abortion, how early in the pregnancy. Obviously a partial-birth abortion would count, I would think.
And just cause it's illegal and immoral does not mean it's impossible. As I'm sure we've all seen [censored political comment]...

Beside, I believe it was a joke...
