re: Colorado Legislature Passes Bill Forcing Taxpayers to Fund Abortions Up to Birth
Posted by COAUTiger on 4/7/25 at 6:45 pm
I found it. Anytime is correct.
I misunderstood the info (I thought it was 22 weeks based on a later sentence) but AFTER 22 weeks happens to include up to birth.

Just another one for accuracy
This bill should remove the Federal funding
"Because the bill requires all abortion services to be state-funded, it will shift costs to the General Fund and decrease the use of cash and federal funds. "
"Because the bill requires all abortion services to be state-funded, it will shift costs to the General Fund and decrease the use of cash and federal funds."
For FY 2025-26, the bill requires the following appropriations to the Department of Health Care Policy and Financing:
* an increase of $1,476,896 from the General Fund;
* a decrease of $41,650 from the Healthcare Affordability and Sustainability Fee Cash Fund; and
* a decrease of $1,721,497 from federal funds.

My information below is incorrect. Please disregard.
Downvoted myself
It reads that is 22 weeks.
Colorado is one of the few states where a late-term abortion (termination after 22 weeks) can be obtained. Most providers will recommend getting an abortion well before the 20th week, as abortions can become more complicated and more painful the further along the patient is in their pregnancy.

BTW - I am not for it by any means, just adding for possible accuracy.

re: The irony of funding Ukraine is that the conflict is keeping oil prices high.

Loogaroo, were are we disconnecting here?
US puts sanctions on Russian oil. This is to keep it off the international market. But there are other countries (China being one) that ignore the sanctions and buys it on the black market. Because Russian oil cannot be openly traded, it's traded at a lower than market value. No way would China pay open market price much less higher than market value for Russian oil. this means China has less demand on the open market. They are getting a lot of their oil cheap in the black market because Russia is desperate for the money (Russian government relies heavily on the oil revenue and not just for military).
Do you think it works different than this?

re: (Memo) Trump and GOP to come out against Alabama court ruling regarding IVF
Posted by COAUTiger on 2/23/24 at 3:56 pm
I agree. I'm just concerned it can take a turn like that. I am not aware of anything that would prevent it from going to this extreme. But I am by no means a law person.
It is a civil case but when you find the embryo to be human and was killed by negligence, it's now a criminal case (as far as I am aware).
Again, thank you for your responses. I don't think we are thinking the same way, but I appreciate your interactions.

Sorry IJAFK, I said I would leave it at my previous post but I just want to add this.
Yes, people are taking this farther than what this case is really about. But it sets precedence for other cases. Embryos are children. A vial gets destroyed accidentally aka 1-2 children are dead. Wouldn't the state have to press manslaughter charges because of the deaths? That's how I am concerned about this ruling. Maybe I am wrong but some laws have a much bigger reach than what was intended.

No, it's not a stupid question at all. I really don't see how you think it is. This law creates a precedence for other cases where embryos are involved.
But from your response, I gather you do not think an individual's actions can be held responsible. Thank you for your response.

How is that a stupid question?? If that California case happened in AL, the technician killed several kids by AL law. How is that a stupid question?
Heck, you are the one that posted the case yesterday .... You sure seemed to think it was related then.
And I was not trying to argue with you. I was curious how you think that should be handled. I was (and will) leave it at that if you answer and be polite about it.

In the California case you posted yesterday, you would be for the technician that dropped the vials of embryos to be charged with multiple counts of manslaughter?

Please ignore one of your upvotes. I meant that for cwill.
Did you know that the price of oil is based on supply and demand on the international market? US oil price is based on the price of the international market, not the cost of business. Oil has been sold at a cost of business lost in the past. That goes into profit margins, not price of oil.
Oh wow, I just re-read your post. You called other idiots about not understanding basic economics and then write this -
"If the US cow population doubled, that has no bearing on what the price of milk should be.
It depends on what it COSTS the company to produce and deliver the product."
WOW!! Even basic economics is not that basic. Just wow... Not even a mention of supply and demand?? And I'm an idiot??
And let's read my comment again, but slowly this time. My production numbers had nothing to do with the cost of oil. I just thought the production numbers were interesting. The later comment of price of oil v gas was simply stating that the margin trend between the two has significantly increased. I guess you didn't check out the link prior to spouting off. But that is typical so I guess I should have expected this.

I am one of the few on this board that believes the president has very little to do with the overall price of oil, but I found this interesting. This is NOT a political statement for or against any president.
Average monthly US crude oil production by year.
2013 - 227,984 per month
2014 - 267,387
2015 - 287,116
2016 - 269,816
2017 - 284,621
2018 - 333,098
2019 - 374,462
2020 - 345,209
2021 - 342,727
2022 - 362,281
2023 - 391,616
Looking at the price of oil v price of gas, the ratio of the cost to price is MUCH higher than it has been in the past.

re: If China invades the US would democrats support the Chinese?

Khrushchev was right in 1957 when he said “We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the U.S. We will destroy you from within.”
Just a side note donut, Khrushchev didn't say that. What he said was translated to "About the capitalist states, it doesn't depend on you whether or not we exist. If you don't like us, don't accept our invitations, and don't invite us to come to see you. Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you!". It's also debated that "We will bury you" meant we will be at your funeral.
Just stating for accuracy, not debating your comments.

Do you oppose the US from protecting a big national interest (at this time)? We are dependant (and will be for quite some time) on Taiwanese companies producing semi-conductors. Stopping the importing of those will set back the economy tremendously.
As far as "invasion" when they land in US shores unwelcomed, it will never happen. They could not ship/fly enough troops to take over. But maybe you meant invasion another way.

If a person drops the embryos like the California case, can they be charged with murder rather than negligence?
If the embryos were sent elsewhere for "disposal", could the shipping person be charged?

It's amazing this case out of San Francisco hasn't ended all IVF in California. It's almost like anyone saying such a thing about Alabama is just a complete moron who doesn't know what he's talking about.
That case was for negligence, not murder. Pretty big difference.
LA laws differ from AL as LA considers the embryo as a juridical person, not an actual person like AL. What exactly does that mean, I have no idea. But that is how LA and AL laws differ.

Maybe his is correct this time, but look up other Dimon predictions. He is almost always negative. That guy convinced me several years ago the market was going to crash. Went to cash in my 401k and missed out on a great market run.
