The Globe and Mail did a huge research project into abortion and the demographics behind it last summer. I don't have a link, but one thing that they were trying to hammer home is that it's so wide spread that it essentially is common in all demographic classes (Of course with overrepresentation from the expected groups, but a wide distribution non the less).

Demographics done by a newspapermight be a little misleading. Not only are there a lot of people who would refuse to disclose (or refuse to disclose how many). As well, when it comes to socioeconomics, you likely see a lot of young women citing their family income, rather than their own.
I do think there are far too many superficial abortions, but I don't think we want to live in a society that refuses to allow people to make their decisions.
However, ken0042 brings up a good point about adoption. However, I was under the impression there are already more babies available for adoption than eager parents. Of course, with the allowance of same sex couples to adopt, that could change a little.
