Absolutely, yes.

Turns out I didn't even need to reply. Yes, state-controlled health care, death panels, partial birth abortions, even Covid mandates....they all seem to be related. If I was a conspiracy theorist, from a purely actuarial basis I'd wonder if abortion, euthanasia, and the even the effects of Covid have all served to assist a centralized system of government rather than the citizens themselves. Freeing up some Social Security money and generating death taxes certainly is an unspoken benefit for the government when grandma dies of the Wuhan flu. And even big corporations are stepping up to offer cash and over-the-state-border trips to employees who want abortions; the alternative being paying for extended post-natal time off. Bean counter morals.

Otherwise, it's the "sanctity of life" precept that relates the two.

This does make me wonder how bad the Democrats polling numbers are. They must be beyond awful for them to do this.

Also I want to double down on this point while we're at it.

I never asked to be born, why should I be held financially responsible for ANYTHING?

They must be abysmal. I went to the dollar store to buy foil drip trays the other day, and all the price tags were $1.25. Monthly "the inflation is better" speeches can't spin a dollar store markup no matter how hard you try.

Yeah but it's it fair there are multiple billion dollar industries?

Don't know about that. My neighbor got back from early voting and as she stepped out of the car said "democrat all the way, baby!" And she doesn't even have a Ukraine flag on her car.

Right after my wife got her master's in special education, she was pressured to convert her federal student loans to a private one. Because it was private she wasn't and never would have been eligible for any forgiveness. She owed $2000 on $35k, when she died, a year and a half ago, after $100,000 in payments.

So she voted for x-Republican Charlie Crist (who knows what he'll be next year) and supports Joe "where am I?" Biden. Sometimes politics--like climate change--becomes religion. Never question, just obey.
