Ohio bill orders doctors to 'reimplant ectopic pregnancy' or face 'abortion murder' charges

67. What's a tragedy.....

is that there are decent people still residing in this state (most due to work, family commitments or, as in my case, an inability to sell a home), but their voices have been muted primarily by gerrymandering. While always leaning conservative and controlled by its business patrons, Ohio has become alarming more extremist in its governing over the past two decades. Along with the entrenched business interest, the rural and theocratic constituencies dominate all legislation and governmental operations at the state and most local levels (except for the large urban areas). It's rapidly trying to achieve 'worst in the nation' status in most metrics - most recently as having the highest number of ER visits by those receiving Medicaid. It's a dubious distinction that most societies wouldn't want, but one that the Republicans in this state seem to crave - a race to the bottom. Very sad and disturbing.
