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.
Stiglitz is a nobel laureate economist who believes that Trump's fixation and erratic behavior regarding tariffs and international trade agreements makes the investment environment in the USA unstable, risky, and scary. It's easy to discover his thoughts on the topic, they've been shared in these threads before. Projection isn't necessary when the evidence supports the thinking that is shared in the threads.

But to be fair I did say "some economists" when I sourced only him so that criticism of me is valid.
Not really. Sourcing one well qualified economist while indicating "some" economists is customary and not worthy o of criticism. Stiglitz' views are widely shared and hardly outliers in today's world of economic experts and analysts. The nit picking is an easy diversion from discussing the concerns of people like Stiglitz.

You are kidding, right? Can't wait for Smartmatic to win their case. It finally has begun!
You must not believe that Fox has a rehabilitated relationship with the truth after their lies about election fraud. I can't say that I blame you. There's not much evidence to support the idea of reformed behavior that I've seen.
Smartmatic has had a sketchy history. They may have a tough time convincing a court that Fox damaged them and thst they deserve $2 billion, if anything.

If a couple of people in a company are investigated for criminal behavior then that may mean that the whole business enterprise is corrupt, is that the standard? What about if people in the company are convicted of felonies or of fraud?
Finally they have moved out of depositions. I hope I can watch this on TV. It will be interesting how they could ever weasel out of this one since they admitted their guilt in their previous and their previous cry of We're not the news; we're infotainment won't be challenged. I doubt the judge will give them more than the $978 million they got from the last case, but a girl can hope that they get the full $2 billion.
