Dear MoonglowYou must hate mandatory auto insurance laws also..1. First it was over ACA mandates, and flipping to the extreme OPPOSITE of "free choice"
by mandating that everyone support "right to health care through govt" under penalty of law.
There were liberals DENYING that any free choice or liberty was lost "because everyone HAS to buy
health insurance anyway" (that's like prolife advocates explaining abortion is murder
and NOT a legal choice, so regulations banning or restricting it AREN'T taking away anyone's free choice)
2. Next came the insanity and cruelty of punishing people for their beliefs, and abusing govt to force
people to change their beliefs about homosexuality and gay marriage when these are faith based choices.
If liberals and atheists can SUE to remove references to Crosses, Christmas or nativity decorations, prayer, God/Jesus, Bibles or creation from schools and other public buildings, institutions, policies or practices (because "they don't agree with those beliefs") then why can't people who don't agree with "homosexuality as natural"
or in "gay marriage as a ritual" demand that THOSE beliefs be removed from public institutions and endorsement!
3. Now more of this:
This Bill Would Make Conversion Therapy Illegal Nationwide
The same liberals who REFUSE to ban abortion, as harmful or risky or abused that is, where abortion can be forced on people socially emotionally and financially where the damage is irreversible after the fact,
DEMAND to ban "conversion therapy" as a choice. They want it declared FRAUD.
Again, isn't that like declaring abortion to be MURDER in order to ban it.
Or barring "sexual reassignment" procedures from children as CHILD ABUSE.
It blows my mind that the same liberals who want MINORS
to have a choice of access to abortion and sexual reassignment surgery
would want legislation protecting minors (and now all people) from conversion therapy by banning it.
I can understand banning ABUSES of therapy and fraud.
But so many prolife advocates have argued that the liberals
won't police the abuses of abortion the same way, but allow BUTCHERING to go on
because they don't want to shed negative light that makes abortion look bad.
4. Lastly, this does tie back in with the first issue in #1.
It blows my mind how liberals want to FINE the free choice of paying and providing
health care "other ways besides insurance mandated by govt"
but REFUSE to FINE or regulate the "choice of abortion"
claiming to defend free choice.
So crazy. How can wanting to pay for health care another way
be MORE HARMFUL or against govt and public interest
(SO MUCH THAT IT MUST BE PENALIZED WITH FINES TO FORCE PEOPLE TO COMPLY)
than wanting to have an abortion which liberals DEFEND to the end on the basis of "free choice"?
Some day, maybe someone can explain this to me! Please!
Those are optional because nobody is saying you have to buy a car.
Those laws are also under States that have authority to police roads for safety .
That is wholly different from federal govt making laws from Congress that is trying to represent 50 states with their own diverse populations, as large and as different as CA is from TX. On a policy issue as sensitive as people's health care choices and beliefs that are as private as the individual choice of birth control or abortion that, last I checked, govt had no authority to regulate without overstepping bounds into individual free choice and liberty.
Moonglow are you really going to compare CA passing laws for CA and TX passing laws for TX, RI for their citizens separate from Hawaii and Alaska etc.
TO
One body of Congress passing a law that affects every citizen in all 50 states at once with no direct say in how this impacted our taxes and where half the nation, and activists from BOTH parties were protesting the corporate payoffs benefits they received at taxpayers expense?
Where in the car insurance laws did corporate interests get billions if not trillions in payoffs to cover drivers forced to buy cars so they'd be forced into a system against their will and beliefs?
