Abortion Tourism...

With great fanfare, California's newest Governor, one Mr. Gavin Newsom, a man who's already accomplished much more than his rather pedestrian potential (having an uber-wealthy and politically-connected family can help a lot!), just announced his newest plan to further tarnish the once-Golden State.

He issued his "Proclamation on Reproductive Freedom."  In it, he "...reaffirms the State's commitment to protecting women's reproductive choices, educate(ing) Californians about their reproductive freedom, and welcomes women to the State to exercise that right."

He goes on to mention, "...it also references California's reproductive services already available to California women, including state-funded services for low-income women."

Hmmmm.  Now, I've heard of "eco-tourism," and "archeo-tourism," and "wildlife-tourism," and even "citizenship-tourism."  That last one appeals greatly to wealthy Chinese women who fly in just in time to drop their baby in the U. S. of A. and claim somebody else's piece of the American Dream.

Illegal, of course, but with 100,000+ illegals flowing across our southern border every month, why in this day and age should that stop them?

But back to Speaker of the House San Fran Nan Pelosi's favorite nephew (his Godfather was J. Paul Getty!), the new Guv.

First, I should say I'm not surprised.  Hardly anything this Leftist dweeb does surprises me.  He's already turned CA into a "sanctuary state."  That means he's seceded from our Union without actually taking the time to send Trump a love note announcing as much.  Must've forgot. 

Can you say, "Born on third base, thought he hit a triple?"  I knew you could... 

He just luuuuuuvs illegal aliens.  He wants many, many more of them.  And to provide them with an even greater inducement to break into America, he's now working on legislation to provide them with free health care, paid for by its legal citizens.  Like, ummm, me.  And maybe you...  

Not free health care for its senior citizens.  No siree Bob.  Not free health care for its veterans.  Nope, again.  Not free health care even for its legal foreign resident Green Card holders.  Just illegals!  And no waiting!  Break in today, go to the doctor on the State tomorrow!  And no co-pay!  

And if that's not "Progressive" enough for you, he's even offering free health care (i.e., abortions) for the residents of other States!  Hmmm, again.

Not satisfied with his promise to unilaterally end "global warming," perhaps by magic, or take away everybody's legal firearms, or punish success by imposing ever-higher taxes, or raise the price of gas so no one can afford to drive, he's now offering free abortions to the rest of America! 

Now I could be wrong, but I'm guessing there's still a few people here in The People's Republic of Taxifornia who don't agree with wholesale abortion on demand.  And especially when they're being ordered to pay for it.  For the very first time.  Ever.  

Excuse me, but isn't there a "Hyde Amendment?"  You know, the Federal Regulation that specifies no Federal taxpayer money may be used to pay for abortions?  Oh yeah, but maybe that's only for the states still IN the United States of America... 

Annnd, I might mention nearly all the Dem 2020 POTUS candidates have promised to do away with that pesky "Hyde Amendment," once and for all.  And Joe Biden, professional candidate for POTUS, and a guy who's been in D.C. since The Flood, just announced he's withdrawing his decades-long support for "Hyde," in an effort to placate Planned Parenthood, somebody named Alissa Milano and the marauding crowds of screaming Leftists who simply DEMAND it!  

The 10th Amendment to our Constitution tells us that if we don't like the politics or laws or taxes or rules or regulations in another state, or even its weather or terrain, we can pick up and move to another one.  In other words, we can simply vote with our feet.  

Along with ten of our Fortune 500 corporations, a million of California's forlorn Middle-Class have already done so.  Many more are to follow.  You can check the "U-Haul Factor" if you want to know how much more it costs to rent a truck to go from here to anywhere, vs. anywhere to here.  It's in multiples.  In some states U-Haul will pay you to drive their trucks back to CA.

But I'm guessing Newsom is banking on the hope that all those unwanted and underserved Middle-Classers bolting CA and taking their tax money with them will soon be replaced by pregnant women from other states.  And maybe they'll bring their families along with them.  And, while they're here, possibly take in Disneyland and Hollywood before signing up for State aid and food stamps.  I mean, Georgia just passed restrictive abortion laws that have Hollywood's panties in a major twist.  Perhaps Newsom thinks perturbed Georgians will now move to Taxifornia!  To replace all those whining folks who have bolted!  Just think of the boon to our tourism!

Yeah, that's it!  Newsom is doing this to improve our economy (cough, cough)!  Unless, of course, they come here to take advantage of "Abortion Tourism" and then go on home...
