Birth rate decreases as income increases. The highest income earners have the lowest birth rates.

The pointy-haired boss is still clueless. Now, the world around him is just nonsensically shifting in a way that also makes most of us feel clueless, so we can empathize.

Funny how you criticize someone who pokes fun of people who fall into their own version of reality (and a giant corporate structure who encourages everyone to fall in line) as the one who is sinking into his own version of reality.

When I travel between states to partake in a service that is allowed in one state but not another that is not interstate commerce. I'm still conducting intrastate commerce within the state where I am located. The federal government doesn't have the authority to regulate all laws federally just because I can travel to a state with different laws.

Regarding bodily autonomy, it becomes a little tricky to make that argument when a mothers' decisions affect a separate body from her own. A body with its own DNA that happens to rely temporarily on her mother. Is the argument that a mother can kill her healthy child as long as it couldn't survive without her?

That's exactly what the court did. Congress is now forced to clarify the charter if they want the same regulations in place.

The Dobbs case has everything to do with whether or not a federal abortion law would be constitutional. The court determined on 10th amendment grounds that the constitution was silent on abortion. Therefore, that power belongs to each state. “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”

That website says $12.5 million for 2021 and was a decrease by $10 million vs 2020.

Because they are pandering for votes. They know that the average citizen doesn't know that the law would be deemed unconstitutional based on the most recent ruling.

Congress created the EPA, but the court ruled that some regulations were outside of their charter. Congress can fix it by updating the EPA charter.

"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people."

Abortion regulation powers were not delegated within the US Constitution and therefore those powers go to the states.

Abortion is not mentioned in the constitution and therefore each state has the power to legislate it as they see fit. Any federal abortion law would be deemed unconstitutional on that basis.

These media companies are regulated by the FCC, so media companies will now feel pressured to effectively regulate free speech on behalf of the political party in power to avoid any negative repercussions in unrelated matters.

It's disturbing that the constitution limits the government from quelling free speech so now the government is pressuring private companies to achieve what they are forbidden to do on their own.

Twitter can't clean up that garbage either and is also used by extremists. However, Twitter has not been deplatformed.

Many users wanted a free (as in freedom) platform and Parler provided it.

Parler wasn't intolerant. Parler wasn't advocating for Twitter to be taken offline.

Based on his heart tweet, Jack sure was happy when Parler was removed from the App Store. Jack is the intolerant one.

A government middle man is not going to reduce income inequality. First, we need to decide whether or not inequality is necessarily a bad thing if everyone's situation is improving. Otherwise, it just comes off as covetousness. Second, we need to evaluate if mental health/drug rehabilitation facilities would solve a lot of the homelessness problem. Third, we need to reduce government restriction on building to put some downward pressure on housing costs or encourage people to establish employment or businesses in areas that are more economical.
