Yep this is the logical consequence of turning your state into un-free shitholes ruled by petty authoritarians

    Don’t go to Bama. The football isn’t going to be good for awhile.

    I mean…duh? Basically the entire point of having different laws in different states is that people can choose what laws they want to live under. No one should be surprised that young people are considering that when choosing colleges.

    FabledAepitaph ,

    Most people aren’t exactly choosing… they’re just too economical destitute to leave, because the society/government/capitalism has kept them poor. Totally possible for people to get trapped.

    so if you are not able to afford move out of a state or just stuck where you are it is your fault?

    what about the ones of us not allowed to vote was it our fault we have bad laws in our state too?

    what about the ones of us who because of work or whatever have to cross state lines?

    when do make politicians accountable or is always those people’s fault for not voting right or living in the right state?

    A while back I had to travel for work so read up on my employers benefits - apparently they’ll cover emergency airlift back to a developed country for medical emergencies

    That’s where you’re supposed to have basic rights. But that hasn’t been a thing in the US… Uhhh … Ever. Even when SCOTUS didn’t let cops kill people wantonly, it just never got that far in the legal system. So I guess there’s at least been progress?

    But yeah I’m not going to be mad that the people who can get out of the worst states do so. It doesn’t mean we stop fighting for basic rights, it means the idea of 50 laboratories is working. For example, you don’t hear much about the flat tax idea after Brownback obliterated the government in Kansas with it.

    As a guy, the same thing would be important to me. I’d want a girlfriend who valued herself enough to make that choice. Also, what if I screwed up and got her pregnant? I’d want her to get whatever care she chose, and not be treated like a breed sow.

    jak ,

    I also wouldn’t want her to die from an ectopic pregnancy

    I wouldn’t want that, either. I’d want to be where care is easily available and obstetricians aren’t afraid to do their jobs.

    As someone who used to be a teenager, I imagine that remaining 27% being mostly guys that haven’t thought that far ahead, and would have been much higher in my day

    Congratulations to the zoomers for proof that you’re compassionate and can think beyond immediate needs and desires

    My first thoughts from reading the headline was that it probably had to do with abortion and cannabis legalization.

    gaifux ,

    Seriously, I mean that was what I focused on when shopping around for higher education. 1) do you sanction the drugs I like to study with and 2) do you sanction killing off tiny humans if I make a oopsie.

    I didn’t finish school, maybe the weed had something to do with it if I’m being honest but at least I’m not an uneducated father!

    Daft_ish ,

    Tiny human? Is that what you call a formless mass of cells?

    Zygotes and embryos are closer to zygotes and embryos of other species then they are of fully developed human babies. Would you consider the zygote of a pig a “tiny human”?

    Another note, no one studies with weed. Why do I even bother with these out of touch people?

    theneverfox ,

    you get a biopsy well I’m going to take this tiny human down to the lab to see if it’s malignant. Now give me your arm so I can extract some liquid human

    What we really should be doing is normalizing the name “maybe-baby” for fetuses…“fetus” sounds too clinical. So people colloquially call it a baby, and that makes some people think of any stage of fetus as a baby, despite the fact miscarriages are extremely common and sometimes they just die randomly even very late in gestation…

    So it’s really a maybe-baby

    Daft_ish , (edited )

    Calling it anything close to baby gives these people ammunition. Im fine with the clinical terms but if we really need a branding campaign let’s get rid of the words abortion and termination. Cell removal? Uterus purge?

    Everythingispenguins ,

    Ultimately this is a brain drain story.

    CosmicTurtle ,

    Which ultimately helps the party that doesn’t want people to think for themselves and only parrot the party line.

    The same party that is gutting state schools, re-legalizing child labor laws.

    MNByChoice ,

    Long term, and we are likely seeing it already, those states will underperform and be a strain on the country.

    We really could use a way to reshuffle underperforming states.

    AA5B ,

    But they’ll get all the jobs. All those $7/hour warehouse jobs

    They almost become 3rd world states in a way

    If you go back to the 1980s there is an article in Playboy (the articles were actually pretty good) talking about how the Indy 500 was just a party for Hoosiers who got a great education and moved away for opportunity to come back home and be nostalgic.

    The Midwest used to have excellent schools.

    froge ,

    It still does they’re just only in IL, MN, and MI now

    silkroadtraveler ,

    I want to read this article. I went to the Indy 500 for the first time ever last year because I love Indy Car and racing. But let’s just say I wasn’t a huge fan of a lot of the attendees. I’m pretty sure not too many of the educated Indiana diaspora are returning anymore.

    RestrictedAccount ,

    To be fair, if you were in the infield, it was always a Mad Max scenario.

    silkroadtraveler ,

    Very true from the few pictures and videos I’ve seen from back in the day. ‘The Snake Pit’ name was definitely not dreamed up in a marketing office. If I go again, I’m springing for the nice seats on the front straight. You know, where all the European drivers’ families sit.

    Welcome to the marketplace. Sucks when it doesn’t go the way you want.

    I love how you’re beggaring the very question.

    I’d say look to science to fill in the learning gaps, but it’s already too late.

    Pay attention, folks, this is the result of prolonged ivermectin butt-chugging.

    Or, you know, if you’re worried about being one of the 14% of women in the U.S. who are rape survivors.…

    GONADS125 ,

    Some campuses have such horrifyingly greater rates of rape too… It varies from campus to campus, but it’s a systemic issue. Source

    otp ,

    If you want better access to healthcare as a woman, apply for schools in blue states.

    Or it could be about more than abortion access.

    Young women could just be choosing to move out of or away from states that have outlawed basic medical operations for women. College is probably the first opportunity that most people have to move away from home. And people going to college generally want to improve their lives, so why not go somewhere better?

    sharkwellington ,

    I’m going to assume you don’t have any form of insurance? Can’t predict if you’ll need it, after all.
