I am leaning towards not sterlising minors being a good thing because it is a life altering decision that Im not convinced a minor can make.
If you can’t be trusted to responsibly consume alcohol how can you be trusted to choose to be sterilised?
I don’t follow US politics closely enough to be aware of the memo but I did read about the actual policy that was passed. As for banning puberty blockers, that isn’t what was passed by 81 Democrats.
Name the country and I will disprove your claim. Healthcare is always political, from the structure (public vs private) to what care is legal.
It is even more dishonest to ignore history, the people who suffered and the progress that was made largely through changes to laws. Sometimes as a result of activism or protest.
That’s amusing, Im married with children, vote left and support Unions
Wrong. Government spending that doesn’t benefit society as a whole is wasteful. There are never enough funds to sort every problem out and the particular topic you’re referring to here was a change by a centre left government that I support.
Go open a history book. That’s exactly what the laws are doing. You talk like someone with zero understanding of how governments work, or the history that has shaped governments and the systems they govern.
