What the *ell!
That is a big surprise. It only used to be 6 months up here when my two boys were born in the late '70s and early '80s but I remember when the improvements were brought in.

The USA has no mandatory vacations either. The country only holds $$$
sacred.

Ordinary people don't seek welfare. Why don't you just go bunk in with
Donnie for a while to get an idea of how it is to live in a socialist
welfare state. He'd put you up in the basement where you'd be most
comfortable. Yoy wouldn't mind a dirt floor, would you?

No Harry, that's wrong. Since the passing of Roe v Wade, a fetus has
had absolutely no rights especially in regards of it's life or it's
death. a fetus rules over nothing.

That must be why the right wingers are making abortions impossible or
nearly impossible to get in states controlled by republicans.

Ahh, but in the good old U.S. of A., we don't give a damn about the
health and welfare of mother and child once the fetus is delivered.

That is impressive.
If we could only figure out a way for men to get pregnant, little Snottie could have a job for life. ;-)

That might be true in your family, but the general population doesn't
think the way you do.
