I just woke up & discovered it's 1965! "How you don't believe we're on the eve of..."

Has today's G.O.P. positioned itself better as "the party for the future" for 1965 or for 2022 ?

I'm afraid it's going to get violent, with "logan's Run" style manhunts across texas as women miscarriage and make a break for the border. Not the Mexican border, one with another state.
Yeah, this could create some interesting scenarios since it can easily turn citizen against citizen where someone who suspects another of having an abortion can report this to the authorities.

This isn't even about an abortion, it was a miscarriage by all accounts so far.
 
Why is there an obvious pattern of states that deny non-emergency medical care to all male low income residents who
would have access to it resulting from ACA legislation medicaid expansion "opt in" in the majority of states, experiencing
such dramatically higher incarceration rates per capita compared to most medicaid expansion states?

"Supporting" the post-birth poor by deliberately keeping their states among the most difficult places to obtain non-emergency
medical treatment while locking them up at 3X or 4X the incarceration rate of Massachusetts fits a mindset of forced pregnancy
(government interference on steroids) followed up with malign neglect of and then incarceration of the resulting unwanted born.

There is no clear connection between recent crime increases and the bail reform law enacted in 2019, and the data does not currently support further revisions to the legislation.

Why is life so different in these retrograde states? Their legislatures and governors seem absorbed in presenting and solving problems
that don't exist or are not priorities in states with the highest access to non-emergency medical care, including safe clinical abortion
and lowest incarceration rates?

Yep. The point I was making is it's now a weird situation for women to be in because they can be reported for this kind of situation and unless they have the resources to fight it, they can end up in pretty bad circumstances.
 
If i woke up and discovered that it was 1965, i would be buying two Bob Dylan albums and flying to England to see some cool shows.
 
I once woke and believed it was 1965 as well. It was after some strong peyote in Amsterdam back in the day.

Then reality set in, Busch 2 was still President.

Misery works at avoiding relieving itself. Isn't this the opposite result of propagandistic, G.O.P. justification for its hyper touted, "low regulatory," business friendly state governments that only fool the majorities of voters in the states in which the voting majority can least afford the economic consequences of being fooled by G.O.P. propaganda?

Weren't the governors of these states a year ago scapegoating residents of their states collecting unemployment, ending federal supplements
early and refusing federal covid-19 fiscal aid in every way they could publicize? Didn't they fail to implement distribution of federal relief funds
to renters, AKA landlord relief?

Does anyone recall any of the scapegoaters of unemployment benefits mentioning inquiring about the extent of home care responsibilities
of formerly employed who had to take care of their youngest and oldest family members as day care and long term care providers were
impacted by covid-19 and unpredictable school closings?

Don't these G.O.P. state politicians seem obsessed with work requirements for medicaid recipients that are not approved by HHS because
the ACA legislation did nor include a scapegoating or a "we gotta teach these people personal responsibility before they can receive
routine medical care," provision? Why are so many G.O.P. politicians arrested for public and financial corruption?

Don't G.O.P. governors refuse billions annually as a consequence of refusing to expand medicaid in their states per the ACA "option" carved out by Chief Justice John Roberts?

Why would any convenience store owner, for example, ever vote for a G.O.P. candidate for a state government position?

Midterms: Poorest states have Republican legislatures, and richest have Democratic ones
Ken Fisher
Special to USA TODAY
"On Oct. 4, USA TODAY published a breathtaking economic profile of all 50 states, ranked by household income. Embedded within it is arguably the greatest unseen political truth of our time..."

Fathom it, and you will see how politics may unexpectedly affect economics and wealth for years to come.

"Eighteen of the 19 poorest states have legislatures where both chambers are Republican controlled. New Mexico (46th richest, fifth poorest) is Democratic. But there isn’t another blue or purple state until you get to purple Maine (31st richest, 20th poorest) with its “split” legislature of one party in each chamber...."
