[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Putting the trans issue aside, there is a subset of voters who believe the government should provide period products to all women. IMO, providing it to public schools is a baby step towards a nanny government where people expect all their basic needs to be handed to them without any effort on their part. This is why the Harris/Walz ticket scares me. It’s a small baby step towards bigger and bigger bloated government. [/quote] What is wrong with you? THIS is an issue for you? Removing sexist barriers the affect poor girls and young women? Because you’re afraid of . . . What exactly? Shame on you. [/quote] My point flew right over your head; you are so triggered by anyone who doesn’t think in lockstep with you. [/quote] Multiple people here have had the same reaction, so maybe you need to articulate it better. Why does providing supplies to kids in school bother you? Are you also mad about free breakfast/lunch at school? I know that’s also an issue for some on the right. What sort of work do you think poor kids should be doing to have their basic needs met in order to focus on school?[/quote] I have no problem with feeding the hungry and providing basic necessities, never intended to say that. I do have a problem with encouraging people to not take personal responsibility— again I am not talking about period products themselves, but where this will lead. Thank you for not flying off the handle, lol. [/quote] It's a slipper slope, right?[/quote] DP. The slippery slope argument is a logical fallacy taught in the introductory philosophy course that most of us had to take in order to earn a college degree. I wish they taught these things in high school. We would all be better off if the average citizen could recognize this and the other logical fallacies fed to us by the media. [/quote]
