(Except for the copious amount of drop shipping we do, component parts, manufacturing, and many other aspects of the global economy we engage with them on and will continue to do unabated once the political theatre is out of the way because people want to believe in a boogeyman that’s making eggs more expensive)
Living in Texas, a state with one of (if not the) highest maternal mortality rates in the country, it’s embarrassing that they simply hide the data that disprove their bullshit stance. My wife and I had a very complicated pregnancy that ended up with my kid being born 6 weeks early and her in the hospital, and this was after years of IVF. We spent thousands getting to the point of having a child and if her life was in danger I would not have given a second thought to protecting her.
It’s to the point where the first thing I did when it was viable was to get a vasectomy because I wasn’t going to even have the potential for those risks in a state that actively hates women.
