Ida’s damage is not comparable to what’s happening along the southern border.

LIBERTARIAN: Roe is bad law; the Federal Gooferment has no role in healthcare since it is NOT an enumerated power

Did Roe Just Get Effectively Overturned? – LewRockwell

*** begin quote ***

A few months ago, Governor Greg Abbott signed the “heartbeat law,” and everyone on the left was screaming about going to the courts to fight for “reproductive rights.” Frankly, I thought we’d be in the courts by now rather than watching the new law go into effect.

So what happened? Well, the law was written in such a way that it makes it difficult to challenge in the courts.

*** end quote ***

What should be a very private decision between a woman and her support “staff” is suddenly the Federal Gooferment’s business.

We should have a national debate on when does life begin and when do human rights inure to a person.

There’s a school of thought that says “rights” begins when you can assert them. Another say when you can fight for them. Others say at conception, when a human becomes viable outside the womb, or at birth.

I’m a fat old white guy injineer; not a doctor or an ethicist.  And I’ve never stayed at a Holiday Inn Express.  But I’ll go out on a limb and say, in the absence of some consensus otherwise, the Gooferment, at all levels, should focus on more pressing problems.  The debt, the deficit, and such come to mind!

NEWJERSEY: Pepuls Republik of Nu Jerzee sets new diktats for the cable company monoloplies!

FED UP WITH YOUR CABLE COMPANY? NJ DRAFTS NEW RULES TO IMPROVE CUSTOMER SERVICE
Dino Flammia — Published: September 1, 2021

Cable companies in New Jersey may soon be forced to provide you with better customer service.

But it’s possible you’d end up paying for the improved communication.

The state agency that oversees utilities is in the process of adopting new rules related to the way cable companies handle incoming phone calls from users and provide the work needed in order to resolve customers’ problems.

“All I want is for people to get what they pay for,” Joseph Fiordaliso, president of the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities, told New Jersey 101.5. “Right now, the general customer service experience, in our estimation, is not acceptable.”

A 46-page proposal, dotted with proposed changes aimed at improving the customer experience, was unveiled and approved by the BPU at a meeting in August. A virtual public hearing concerning the proposal is scheduled for Nov. 2 at 10 a.m., and comments may be submitted to the agency through Dec. 2.

How about just deregulate the entire industry and let the marketplace discipline “poor service”?

Instead the State creates “monopolies”!

Argh! 

Yeah, but then we wouldn’t need “regulators”, politicians, and bureaucrats.  And no campaign contributions from Cable Companies either!

The State is immoral, ineffective, and inefficient. As well as untrustworthy. So let’s take away their power!

Fact-Checking 9 Major Biden Claims About Retreat From Afghanistan

1. Trump ‘Made a Deal’ With Taliban

Biden repeatedly said that he was bound by the February 2020 agreement between the Trump administration and the Taliban that the U.S. would exit Afghanistan. Many Republicans are among those who criticized the Trump deal with the Taliban. 

Biden said again Tuesday that when he came into office, the Taliban was in the strongest position it had been in since 2001 because of a deal with the Trump administration specifying that the U.S. would pull out by May 1. 

“The previous administration’s agreement said that if we stuck to the May 1 deadline that we had signed on to leave by, the Taliban wouldn’t attack any American forces, but if we stay, all bets were off,” Biden said during his national address from the State Dining Room of the White House, adding:

So, we were left with a simple decision, either follow through the commitment made by the last administration and leave Afghanistan or say we weren’t leaving and commit another tens of thousands more troops going back to war. That was the choice, the real choice.
During his brief press conference last Thursday after the terrorist attack at the Kabul airport, Biden, responding to Fox News reporter Peter Doocy, said he bears responsibility. 

But he also blamed his predecessor, Donald Trump. 

“You know as well as I do that the former president made a deal with the Taliban that he would get all of the American forces out of Afghanistan by May 1,” Biden said. “In return … he was given a commitment that the Taliban would continue to attack others, but would not attack any American forces. Remember that?”
