    In other words, Democrats cannot vote for something unless it allows women to kill their babies.

    It allows women to make a choices regarding their personal health and reproductive choices.

    Shall we continue to talk past each other?

    Did the bill disallow liposuction? Appendectomy? Diaphragms? Abstinence? Oh, it wasn't about all choices regarding their personal health and reproductive choices, just the one that involves killing their baby.

    We should kill more babies. Humans aren’t that important.

    You must be one of those republicans that thinks abortions are performed after birth. Certainly not a libertarian since they would be opposed to the government preventing an individual the right to make decisions about their own health and body.

    Libertarians are split on abortion, because the libertarian position depends on whether you consider the child in utero to be a living human being. Those who do are anti-abortion, because the child's right to life trumps the convenience of the mother. Those who don't are pro-abortion, because the woman should have bodily autonomy. Neither position is anti-libertarian.

    Trump is supposedly a guest speaker at this sh*t stain's conference tonight in Palm Springs. Why isn't that surprising? MAGA!

    He is actually giving the bottom 10 only of the "Life, Health, and Inclusion" subcategory, not the actual rankings.
    America's Top States for Business 2023: The full rankings (cnbc.com)
    Texas is actually ranked 6th overall, being first in access to capital, second in economy, and second in workforce.

    I'm aware, still interesting nonetheless. If I didn't work at a chemical plant and have a union position along with already being a Texas native I wouldn't move here and that's the purpose of the video. Then again if I lived in MS or AL or one the other shithole southern states maybe I would...

    Yes, he's talking about "worst states for people to live in" rather than "best states for businesses to operate". I wonder how most people value "access to capital" vs "life" or "health".

    I notice you skipped the categories "education" and "cost of living" and "infrastructure" and "economy" and "technology and innovation". Those, I am certain, likewise have no bearing on how bad or good a state is to live in, right?

    Stupidmoniker sure likes to type like he knows what's going on in a state he doesn't live in better than people who actually do.
