If I were a lawyer arguing against the law in court, my primary argument would be that this violates the interstate commerce section of the US Constitution.

Tyranny
A right to remain silent. A right to a competent attorney regardless of ability to pay. A right to due process. A right to a timely trial by a jury of peers. A right to healthy food, shelter, healthcare, and other accommodations while incarcerated. I'm probably missing a few.

"You won't have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians."
States can do it. Elections belong to the States, not federal government. So talk to your state government and tell then what you want.

I thought I'd retire from Intel. Then I got laid off in my 60s — and I'm still struggling to find a job.
He lost his job at age 63.
He would rather retire at age 65, when he is eligible for Medicare for his health insurance.
He would like to delay Social Security to age 67, so he can get the maximum benefit.
I would love to sit down with him and discuss his situation. A few small adjustments and he could probably hit his goals. It just might not involved him using the same skill set he developed over his prior working career.

One of capitalisms biggest tragedies
I thought capitalism had something to do with capitalists owning the means of production and alienating labor from their work. Where I live most universities are public entities.

Rand Paul is still trying to blame vaccines
I think the problem was rooted in public trust. Many people were required to vaccine due to their work or where they lived and vaccine manufacturers were largely sheltered from product lawsuits. Putting these two things together has a corrosive effect on public trust.

China pollutes so much because George HW Bush and Bill Clinton pushed American jobs to China so CEOs could make bank on huge profits on cheap labor, unsafe work places, and near zero environmental regulation that was impossible in the United States. We built China by disregarding worker rights and the environment and we are paying for it dearly.
