is that how it should be?

No, you've accepted that rich people/companies don't have to obey the law. (Or, at least, that's the tenor of your commentary.)

Therefore it needed to said that, no, they don't have to obey the law. They're complicit in the corruption that's forcing this young woman to account for an abortion that should already be legal, at least in a just society.
