On Monday evening, a San Francisco OB-GYN named Meg Autry went on Rachel Maddow’s primetime program to float an imaginative, radical, and characteristically Silicon Valley solution to the Supreme Court stripping away abortion access across the South. What if, like Peter Thiel’s plans for a seasteading institute in international waters, donors built an abortion clinic that floated permanently in the federal waters of the Gulf of Mexico, where women could travel for reproductive healthcare if unable to escape red states by land? The novel project, which Autry has been pitching to philanthropists, has an estimated $20 million initial price tag—for the retrofitted boat, for the staff, and naturally, for maritime lawyers to defend it in court.
