  • The new Texas laws on abortion (S3E9) 091521
    Dec 8 2021

    We have all heard the reports about the new Abortion Laws in Texas
    Abortion is a difficult decision – to make personally and it should be a personal decision with significant input by women
    Religious, moral, personal – you make the call but does it raise to the level of divisiveness for our country?
    We are turning cousins against cousins -- vigilantes and fugitive slave Act as a part of the Compromise of 1850
    Death penalty is legal in Texas
    Mask mandates are difficult to know about the Texas position

    Abortion is now decriminalized in Mexico Supreme Court
    Second largest Catholic nation in the world after Brazil
    Can’t access care
    It is reported that the law is for working class people because if you need or want one you can go to Mexico or other parts of the united States to get the procedure

    Also, let's air transport emergency crews from other states to those in need. Less time in transit, more energy on the critical restorative activities and cousins get their services back sooner. Bad idea or not?

    Dec 8 2021

    Operation Warp Speed helped to provide US cousins with COVID-19 vaccinations in record times. It is good management to audit a new program to understand what was good about the program what were bad ideas. Keep the good elements of the program and eliminate or improve the bad ideas.
