    A pro-life argument from a progressive perspective

    1) Rights come from the state. The state is the source of our rights. Whether a man or a woman has the right to an abortion is therefore subject to democracy. If the majority says abortion should be prohibited, then there is no right to abortion, period. Rights aren't natural - they're...

    Abortion is a Political Issue

    I'm not interested in playing word games. Call it whatever you want, it doesn't change anything substantive. Your position seems to be that once removed from the woman, it magically has rights that it didn't have a few minutes earlier. To me that sounds absurd, but then again, I'm not a member...

    It's entirely rational if you believe in healthcare privacy. If you don't support healthcare privacy, then you're admitting abortion is fair game for the state to restrict.

    Abortion is a Political Issue

    Ok, I'll rephrase: You said it could be killed when it was 9 months old. The location doesn't matter - whether it is inside of her body or outside of her body, it's still 9 months old. If you disagree explain why.

    Abortion is a Political Issue

    What does it depend on? You said you support healthcare privacy and keeping the government out of our medical decisions, but now you're already backpedaling. If you don't support healthcare privacy, then you're admitting abortion is fair game for the state to restrict.

    No, the purpose is to show you don't really believe what you are saying.

    Do you support the government interfering with which drugs we take, or is that a private matter?

    Abortion is a Political Issue

    Yes, and you said the baby could be killed when it was 9 months old. The location of the baby doesn't matter - if you disagree explain why.

    Your position is the woman may kill the baby when it's nine months old, correct? Agreed, but why for only this particular medical procedure?

    Abortion is a Political Issue

    So you agree the state has no business interfering in our healthcare decisions, since those fall under the patient's right to privacy?

    Abortion is a Political Issue

    You mean privacy from the state's prying eyes, correct?

    Abortion is a Political Issue

    So it's ok if she has the baby and then kills it?

    Abortion is a Political Issue

    How many months old does the "blobby mass" have to be before it has rights?

    According to at least one gop representative, high prices are good for the country. Trump supporters, please explain this to us morons.

    That's rich. A "progressive" worried about high prices? You guys invent scarcity - massive restrictions on the supply of housing, and healthcare by piling on red tape and bureaucracy, and then pretending to be surprised when prices skyrocket. As we write progressive morons in california are...

    Exporting Doctors

    And yet progressives are still pushing for more socialism in the US. We are seeing the same dynamic here in the US. Housing and healthcare are both heavily regulated and centrally controlled. Zoning laws, building permits/restrictions, and rent control choke housing supply. In healthcare, the...
