Black Lung is making an amazing comeback, a nastier form from inhaling silica dust. The right-to-life party relaxed air quality standards, knowing that to do so will kill thousands more people a year from respiratory illnesses. Same with water quality standards. 250 million tons of toxic fly ash generated every year. Kingston spill killed 30 with over 200 ill. I could go on and on...did you see what the Life Party has wrought in Florida?
No shit...you forgot...to Donald "Family Values" Trump (grab 'em by the pussy)...
That's not really true. When it comes to abstinence, there never really were a whole lot of adherents. People have been having sex before marriage since the country was founded. Before trustworthy birth control and abortion, the most common outcome was simply a wedding. During Revolutionary times, 30-40% of American women were pregnant when they married. As a result, "an inevitable lack of self-restraint," as you put it, absolutely is the superior argument.
Let's also not forget that the standard form of abortion in rural, conservative America before abortions were legal and available was the local dumpster. Then again, still is.
What air quality standards are you talking about? Respirable silica standards were recently lowered significantly. Those rules were fully implemented in 2017. Full enforcement went into effect in October of 2017. So again, what specifically are you referring to that the Republicans have done?And the kill-by-deregulation Party.

I actually looked up the original link (it was an academic study) and I got a 404, or I would have linked it for you. Nevertheless, my point also stands: the change wasn't that people started having sex more. The change was that we changed how we responded to unplanned pregnancies.
apparently it was a drive-by as he has not responded to my query
Spend a month in a U.S. coal mine under these new uninforced standards and let us all hear from you again.
I went in coal mines for 32 years 7 days on then one off. I Also was a national safety inspector in UMWA mines. My own mine 6 men did not see their families again. These things hurt. Have you ever spent time in a black lung clinic? Reminds one of a hospice service than clinic. You do not forget men gasping for air. As far as a link, I was in on rewrites of federal and state rewrites on dust standards more than once. Why more? The coal operators have since the diminishing union mines where we made them fallow said standards are just not informed, if so show me the link where cases of coal and rock lung disease has diminished.
How about providing some links? My grandfather was a Kentucky coal miner. He had black lung, but it wasn't his cause of death. I sympathize with this kind of thing, but you're not providing anything of substance.
Depends on the decision and how it is applied to the states. In this case, states aren't protecting themselves from a potential decision as much as they are preparing for the consequences of such a decision.
If SCOTUS ruled for restrictions to Roe Wade that changed the approach, for example, requiring more than one Dr to agree that the Mothers health was in danger and requiring a Doctor to do the abortion how would that affect the New York law?
That's not how a ruling would look. Rolling back Roe would allow states to restrict abortion more. It would not require it.
I'm finally off my phone and on a real computer, so here is a more detailed response:

Your post was about black lung and that interested me due to my Grandfather having it, so I read your link on that (don't have much time for more than that now since I'm going running). I fail to see how that supports your contention that the rise in Black Lung was due to Republican deregulation. It says the rise started in the 90s during the Clinton administration, and the high in cases that it listed was during the Obama administration. The EPA was under the control of Democrats for the majority of the time period they cover. How is this due to Republicans?
It takes years for black lung disease to develop, so the party of the President in any given year is almost certainly unrelated to the number of new cases that year.
Makes perfect sense. I'm not going to rock the boat if I'm knocking down $80K in the mine. But when the mine closes down, and I'm looking for income, a black lung claim is better than nothing.
