Will Trump take the USA backward or forward with women's rights?
Where are women's rights today after 8 years of Obama and 8 years of GW Bush, and 8 years of Bill Clinton and 4 years of GH Bush?
Where is the line today? If we don't know where it is today, then how do you know how president Trump will affect it?
Do we even know what Women's rights are at all?
Hillary Clinton thought that she had a Right to president because she was a woman, and the country never had a women president. Somewhat similar to Barack Obama, although he was only half black. Hillary is most likely all woman.
Marcy, maybe you could write a hub on it, as the question as asked is vague and ambiguous. Not a slam, just an opinion.
? Should all people get the same pay, like the $15 minimum, or should pay be given on merits. Equal pay for equal work and performance.
? Aren't there women out there that get more pay than they are worth, just because they are a female.
? How many men are not getting the same pay as other men
Isn't the workplace more true to saying,"It is not what you know but who you know"?
?Could it be possible that men on average get more pay because more men have been in the work place longer than most women. And even the men get screwed by other men.
Just to mention a few. Feel free to delete my comment for any reason.
Can't go any further backwards than giving women the right to murder their own baby in the womb for no reason other than the baby is an inconvenience.
Hopefully Trump can find the strength to bring us out of the dark ages on this subject and allow the constitution to be interpreted as it was written and not as the SC in 1973 ruled succumbing to Judicial activism.
Roe v. Wade is the single-most destructive Supreme Court ruling in history. It is responsible for the death of over 55 million human lives, and harming millions of women and men whose “choice” has caused death, regret, and an unfulfilled “promise” of “equality”. The supremely wrong decision (like many other Supreme Court rulings in American history) allowed the killing of an unborn child through the 7th month of pregnancy (the point of viability). Based on a complete lie (Jane Roe had originally claimed she had been raped) the justices never even heard from the actual plaintiff. She was merely a pawn. Jane Roe is actually Norma McCorvey. Many people don’t realize that she actually gave birth to her child and allowed her to be adopted and loved. Due to the influence of pro-life advocates, in 1995, everything changed. She became a Christian (Roman Catholic) and was Roe no more. Today, McCorvey passionately defends women and their unborn children and is fighting to overturn Roe v. Wade.
This case is activist because the Supreme Court relies upon notions of living constitutionalism, invoking the doctrine of “substantive due process” to create a right that is nowhere to be found in the text of the Constitution. This doctrine, which was established in Dred Scott v. Sandford, is the prime example of judges reading broad constitutional terms divorced from any textual or originalist moorings, thereby making them empty vessels into which they can pour any policy preferences they desire. The Due Process Clause, which is now being used by judges as a “judicial wildcard,” was simply meant to protect the citizens from government abuse by ensuring that no one be deprived of life, liberty, or property except by a fair process. The fact that the Court has used the word “substantive” to describe a clause that is clearly about process creates an anachronism that defies language and logic. The Court in Roe wields the Clause to support abortion rights without any reasoned justification: after citing previous Supreme Court cases that erroneously established a broad constitutional right to privacy, the Court blithely asserted that this right “is broad enough to encompass a woman's decision whether or not to terminate her pregnancy.”- Hxprofposted 7 years ago
