Leftist polices do not work (Eccl 10:2, Jn 10:10).

"I know that."

Our country will learn that the hard way.

[Reagan’s Darkest Hour: “Therapeutic” abortion in California by Paul Kengor and Patricia Clark Doerner] "...Reagan began to vigorously study the issue and the Therapeutic Abortion Act. He asked his longtime adviser and Cabinet secretary Bill Clark — a devout Catholic who had contemplated the priesthood — for counsel. “Bill, I’ve got to know more — theologically, philosophically, medically,” Reagan confided. Clark loaded up the governor with a box of reading materials, which he took home and read in semi-seclusion. Edmund Morris later said that, by the time the Therapeutic Abortion Act reached his desk, “Reagan was quoting Saint Thomas Aquinas.” Years later, Reagan remarked that he did “more studying and soul searching” on the issue than any other as governor.

Nonetheless, he signed the bill. Reagan and his staff calculated that if he vetoed the bill, his veto would be overridden by the state legislature. Therefore, he decided to do what he could to make the bill less harmful, arguing for the insertion of certain language that eliminated its worst features and allowed for abortion only in rare cases — such as rape or incest, or where pregnancy would gravely impair the physical or mental health of the mother.

The Therapeutic Abortion Act became law. And as would happen with nearly every abortion law in the years ahead, the mental-health provision was abused by patient and doctor alike. Reagan biographer Lou Cannon notes that even the bill’s Democratic sponsor confessed to being surprised that physicians so liberally interpreted the law.

Reagan was shocked at the unintended consequences of his action. Morris said Reagan was left with an “undefinable sense of guilt” after watching abortions skyrocket. Cannon claims this was “the only time as governor or president that Reagan acknowledged a mistake on major legislation.” Clark called the incident “perhaps Reagan’s greatest disappointment in public life...” Reagan’s Darkest Hour: “Therapeutic” abortion in California

[Libs call for boycott of Papa John’s as CEO anticipates cut in workers’ hours by Twitchy Staff] "'James Renner@JamesRenner[:]Boycott Papa Johns. Papa lives in a castle with a private golf course and is now saying he can't afford to pay health care for employees.'

Yesterday Twitchy reported that the unhinged Left was targeting Applebee’s because one monstrous franchisee may implement a hiring freeze to deal with the financial realities of Obamacare. Today, the target is Papa John’s CEO John Schnatter.

Schnatter was hammered with Twitter abuse in August after he told shareholders he would raise prices to offset the cost of Obamacare. Now, he expects franchise owners will reduce employees’ hours rather than provide costly, mandated insurance coverage to people working 30 hours per week..."

Response to comment [from a Christian]: [From the article: "...Like the other retailers, Toys “R” Us is bringing on thousands of part-time seasonal workers right now, to prepare for the holidays..."

Part-time. Full-time jobs will be more difficult to get. Employers never wanted to adopt their employees for life.
