The abortion law builds on legislation passed in 2010 that represented a major shift for a traditionally Catholic country, transforming Spain into one of the most progressive countries in Europe on reproductive rights. Spain's constitutional court last week rejected a challenge by the right-wing Popular Party against allowing abortions in the first 14 weeks of pregnancy.
The debate will be heated in Spain, I imagine, as the conservative opposition pushes back. My daughter had horrible menstrual pain during her adolescence and young adulthood. I'm certain that she would have benefitted from that time.
Obviously I can't tell how you I come across. I didn't say "economic calamity isn't going to happen". I said that so far the sky hasn't fallen.
I don't think I'd like Bulwark...their click bait is "BRUTAL Economic Numbers! Is Trump's Stagflation Spiral Starting?" and "Trump Created America's First Man-Made Stagflation Crisis". Too dramatic for my tastes.
Well, potato/potahto. A lifetime of looking over there, I have learned to ignore an ugly cover and check out the actual book. Sometimes it's like turning over rocks and finding tiny monsters with lots of legs ... and sometimes it's like panning for gold. Meanwhile it's great entertainment. (BTW, almost all commentary titles on YouTube is "dramatic". It's how they make their money.)
So I'll continue to go low while you go as high as you like. Different goals, different strategies.

I like to be a little more real. I think for several years now we've stood on very shaky economic ground and Trump's policies have yet to make things less shaky or better.
I did do a bit of a deeper dive though.
I would challenge the assertion that our economic status has been shaky for several years. I believe our economic recovery from the pandemic was pretty well documented and described as strong as compared to other nations. While our trickle down approach has created unprecedented wage and wealth inequity, that is not a recent or acute phenomenon. Trump has actively shaken our economy with his feckless policy.

I too go beyond the surface, what I call "a deeper dive". But often I don't take the click bait.
Going high to me means not being ugly, being realistic, honest and fair. But mostly not being ugly just because some someone else is.
