View submission: True, who are they to complain
Possible conspiracy theory here - anyone else thinking about how Roe V Wade has been a thing for a loooooong time, the voter bases/belief system in the southern states haven’t changed, so opinions on abortion in the southern states haven’t changed…. But they are just now pushing anti-abortion laws after the top business analysts have started complaining that Millenials and younger are choosing not to have kids?
I’m suspicious of the timing of these laws that target undereducated, lower income people who don’t have the ability to travel outside of their area. It just seems too convenient for businesses that rely on cheap labor and compliant populations to make their profits that the laws are suddenly changing to force low income people into having more low income children right after the analysts warned that is not having children was going to affect the work force population in the next 20 years.

What I don't understand is, if that's the problem, why not allow more immigrants? Also I've never seen an American company think past a few quarters at most, let alone 20+ years till they can hit the work force.

Yes this is absolutely the truth. Can't force people to have more kids....oh wait, you can. Just stop teaching sex ed and outlaw abortion. Next gen workforce is growing by the day.

I subscribe more to the conspiracy theory that roe v wade has been in debate for so long as a distraction from other issues. If half the population has to worry about their right to bodily autonomy they are less likely to be focused on the degrading conditions faced by the working classes of America.

10000%.
Roe v. Wade is about maintaining a workforce pool big enough for the corporate elite.
