Could've used those math textbooks

1. Should Roe v. Wade be overturned this summer, 13 states are set up with "trigger laws" that will outlaw abortion at the state level immediately. At least another 10 will have similar or same on the books shortly after.

2. Today, a 59% majority of U.S. adults say abortion should be legal in all or most cases, while 39% think abortion should be illegal in all or most cases (Pew Research Center survey, conducted April 5 to 11).

3. Written in 1787, ratified in 1788, and in operation since 1789, the United States Constitution is the world’s longest surviving written charter of government. Its first three words – “We The People” – affirm that the government of the United States exists to serve its citizens. The supremacy of the people through their elected representatives is recognized in Article I, which creates a Congress consisting of a Senate and a House of Representatives (United States Senate).

1+1+1 isn't equaling 3 and until it does, we live in a nation that controls [i]us[/i]. If you don't like the idea of your elected state representatives assuming they can read your mind, text/write/call/contact their office and remind them about the "serve" part.

Actually that wont work in the US because the people your representatives serve are the people who contribute funds to their re election campaigns. Either change that or find a new place to live, where the government belongs to the voters😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Campaign contributions mean very little for a politician running for re-election. The real money is in being paid for influence

@redredred True.. But you have to get elected first. And then look after those "Special interests".😷

@whowasthatmaskedman yes but unelected candidates have nothing to offer
