Surely THIS will lower the price of eggs, I presume?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Fascists need to have someone to hate and blame, and they're cowards so they pick on the most vulnerable groups. It's not like they have any ability to govern, or any positive proposals. It's just stoking hatred, resentment and violence, while quietly taking all the money.
This from the same DeWine who just a couple weeks ago told Nazis that their "hate is not welcome here".
Not that I'd ever suspect fascists of not being hypocrites, but COME ON! This is ISRAEL levels of assuming that your audience is a bunch of total idiots with no memory!
Mike DeWine Wednesday that will bar transgender students in public and private Ohio schools from using "multi-occupancy facility"—bathrooms, as well as locker rooms, changing room, or shower rooms—that match their gender identity.
There was a post a few weeks back about a school that solved this problem by converting a "multi-occupancy facility" into private toilet stalls, and converted the handwashing area into a "public space" instead of leaving it as part of the "multi-occupancy facility".
And they pissed off pretty much everyone.
They did convert the stalls into separate rooms with full-height walls and doors, but to convert the handwashing area to a public space, they installed a window from the handwashing area to the hallway.
Great solution if every school district has a bunch of cash laying around to throw up a few new walls
Imagine investing directly in students and their safety!!? What a crazy idea.
Yeah! Who cares if every desk and book is 60 years old and our teachers make 35k per year? Let’s spent money on other stuff!!!
Almost like there are various priorities and different buckets of spend for schools. Safety is always a priority in balance with everything else. You really think bathroom renos come out of teachers salary? Lol
lol you’ve never been to a school board meeting, huh? You think they have money set aside for renovations?
I’m saying it should come out of safety budgets. I would assume a school board might have a couple dollars for that. But ya, you’re the expert here internet man! You’ve seen them talk before!!! lol
“Just pull money out of nowhere, don’t ask me what you should cut, you just need a budget!!!1”
So not only have you never been to a school board meeting, you’ve never had to budget for your department or handled anything that has accountability apparently lol
It was a great way (in theory) to sidestep a bullshit law. It increased everyone's privacy, by doing away with the bullshit partitions we have in most public restrooms.
But it got misrepresented in the press with both sides accusing the other of wanting to spy on kids in the bathroom.
