I didn’t think cigarette man was looney. Thanks to your poll, I know he’s batshit
Well.... when you are from a middle class family, and your doctor mother buys a home...... you must consider the systemic impact of Trump being unstable.....
And one thing is for certain.... we are not going back!!! ( to suburbia where we all live)

I think you give up things when you're incarcerated and this is one of them. It's hard enough to get these things done on the outside. There shouldn't be a net benefit to getting sent to jail for anyone.

I thought this was an anonymous poll. This is going to do untold damage to my left wing street cred. Thanks a lot @seminole97.
Is that why only one person has voted with @tarheelbybirth so far? The rest are afraid to let others know their thoughts on the issue?
Don't worry, @RagnarLothbrok and others: Trump had the exact same policy for federal prisons. I guess he is a left wing extremist?...
someone should start a thread asking trump supporters which policies that were in place for the entirety of the first trump term they are vehemently against now
So, you believe it’s a moderate position?
Trump is a ****ing idiot and not relevant to the OP.
So we should vote for Trump or against Trump? I'm a single issue voter and this is all so very confusing.
No, but the amount is such a drop in the bucket (60-95k a year of the federal prison budget) that I don't REALLY care all that much.
Good point,.. Let the affected prisoners fund it themselves, or do it with private donations.
Republicans are SOOOOOOOO good at getting their base riled up about stupid shit that doesn't matter in the big picture of America. Hey! We voted against lower prescription drug prices...but look over here at this guy who wants to be a girl.
Roughly what percentage of the population do you think will ever have to consider an abortion?
Roughly.
I remember when gay marriage was on the ballot. It drove conservatives to the polls to vote, that’s for sure.
I was voting for W at the time regardless and didn’t understand why anyone would care about such an irrelevant issue to how the government is run.
People are stupid.
can you believe that there's a politician that allowed incarcerated trans people to recieve gender affirming care paid for by tax dollars during their term?
unbelievable
Who?
( there were zero cases od this happening during Trump, the law existed, yes, but there were zero instances of it being used.)
not true
hormone therapy (which is absolutely gender affirming care) was provided throughout the trump administration
my comment that you responded to says "gender affirming care"
so, you're fine with tax payer dollars paying for other expenses related to gender affirming care, just not surgeries specifically
makes total sense
its ok...no one realized - or really cared - that this was happening all along. and now you have to find some narrow lane where it doesn't make trump and all his supporters making this a major issue look like they're completely full of shit
its a tough job, good luck
Greater than the percentage of the population who are prisoners getting sex changes.
is that an important distinction here?
hormone blockers and other care (including hair removal)...these are fine for tax payers to fund? it's just specifically surgeries where it becomes a problem?
Well, based on current demographics I’d say roughly half the population may have to consider an abortion at some point.
Not to mention that OP says "sex changes" which requires both surgery and hormones, by definition. Sorry, jneffer is right on this.
I think it's a bad idea but no one is seriously suggesting that inmates get gender affirming care
Are you sure lol. We do house more prisoners than any civilized country in the world.
Harris' Position on Health Care for Transgender Prisoners and Detainees - FactCheck.org
Q: Does Kamala Harris support government-paid gender-affirming surgery for prison inmates and immigrant detainees? A: The government must provide medical care to prisoners and immigrant detainees. Vice President Kamala Harris expressed support in a 2019 questionnaire for “medically necessary”...

Harris voter checking in. We should be providing basic medical service to prisoners. The types of things to keep them physically fit/healthy. But body alterations don’t fit that definition to me.
You have the body you were born with. If you don’t like it I 100% support your right to change it. But not on my dime.
