So, how do you decide which women to enslave to serve the rights of the 400,000 thousand human being sitting in freezers in the US?

And if the legal definition of human is as you want it to be, then shouldn't I be able to obtain a few frozen embryos, and then deduct them off my income tax as dependents for as long as I keep them frozen and thus "alive"? (I'm single, male, and 60 - I can only wish that I could have had some low cost dependents for the past two decades to cut my taxes.)
