Also does not reflect government transfers to the household.

Oregon, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, Vermont, Alaska, and Colorado. Plenty of others have de facto abortion on demand up until birth. Just go to a doctor (or nurse practitioner in many states through things) and claim emotional distress. In many states you can do this through telemedicine with a doctor or nurse practitioner you've never even seen. Similar to getting a prescription for medical marijuana -- just check the box and collect your prescription. So that would be states that allow post-viability abortions for "health" instead of those that limit the exception for "physical health" or "life". These states include New York, California, AZ, CT, DE, Hawaii, IL, Maine, MD, MA, Minnesota, Nevada, VA, and Washington.

I probably have to go with the murderers and sex traffickers being worse. Or Melfi's rapist. But yes she is insufferable and she directly and knowingly benefits from all of the mob's nefarious activities.

That's not very nice.

It is not equitable. But not in the way you think. It's a neat trick to convince people that the "rich" don't pay their fair share. They pay their fair share and everyone else's.

Net of transfers from the government, the bottom 60% pay a negative rate. The 60 to 80 percent pay very little. And the top 20% pay for basically everything.

Especially from the bitter childless single women on this thread. They have mainstream views and really have their finger on the pulse of what parents think.

I'd rather have the admiration of the woke white leftists on this board, because I really like and admire them.

Neither were going to ever pass. And I never suggested either would. One bill's vote could be used against Democrats. And one could be used against the GOP. Chuck Schumer chose the former.

I am saying it was strategically stupid. GOP of all stripes can happily explain why they voted against the bill. Dems in red or purple states/districts have a target on their backs for voting for this. It was dumb politically. A smart move would have been introducing a bill that guaranteed the right to first trimester abortions. Then you put a target on GOP in blue or purpleish states or districts who vote against it. Note, doing the latter does not preclude you from later swinging for the fences with this bill, which basically federalizes abortion and overturns all state regulations.- Comic Relief: Satirical Tweets and Memes

It goes well beyond Roe and Casey. You may like that. But you don't get to pretend it does not. It was stupid political move. The smart move would be to advance a bill that codified Roe and Casey. Now the GOP gets to run ads that every democrat in Congress besides Cuellar and Manchin just voted for a bill that would preclude the parental notification and consent laws that 36 states have. Those type of laws are largely very popular among voters.- Joe Biden 2022: Enter Dark Brandon
Not everyone can love their fellow man like the sterling example set by all the folks who post in the cloak room a couple thousand times a year. They are kind and decent people.- The Supremes
It would do a lot more than that. It would vitiate all sorts of abortion regulations that federal courts have determined passed muster under Roe and Casey -- including parental notification and consent laws blessed by the SCOTUS. This was an unforced error. This this bill is not what Schumer said it is -- a codification of Roe and Casey. Instead it would be a federal expansion of abortion rights. The GOP can and will say this bill allows on demand abortions up and until birth. And that argument haves some merit when you consider how broadly courts interpret "health" and the statute's provision stating post-viability abortions are allowed “when, in the good-faith medical judgment of the treating health care provider, continuation of the pregnancy would pose a risk to the pregnant patient’s life or health.”- The Supremes
Schumer brought abortion bill that failed 49-51. I don’t know what he was thinking. He could've called the Murkowski-Collins bill that actually codifies Roe and Casey rather than going way beyond those rulings, gotten bipartisan support, and had the "radical Republicans blocked our reasonable abortion access (with restrictions) bill" all the way through to November. Chuck Schumer refused to call a vote for it, saying "this isn't the time to compromise." Now folks like Mark Kelly have to spend the next 6 months explaining to their purple-reddish state constituents why they were in favor of unfettered abortion up to the moment of birth.- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)

For the pro choice people on this thread, is there any point during pregnancy where you think the state has the right to prohibit abortions not otherwise necessary to save the mother from death or serious risk of injury or do you support no restrictions up until birth?- Surly parents worried about their kids being attacked- megathread
I skimmed and could not tell how they define sexual assault. Title IX's definition of sexual assault is typically a lot broader than the penal code's definition of sexual assault. - The Supremes
