Reply to How is storm response and two year tree trimming cheaper than burying electric lines?? by schillerstone
Corporations operate based on short term profits. If you make expensive up front investments, then the corporation has lower profits that quarter, and the executives get smaller bonuses. The way it's run now is making them money and will continue to do so, they have no real incentive to change.

I mean, the same can be said of trucks, the cargo being on rail doesn't make it any more secretive.

I suppose cops have a lot more personal experience with domestic abuse than the average person.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in New Hampshire Trans Sanctuary Bill (plus two others) by 1carus_x
Ah, I hope Massachusetts gets a similar bill passed, I was born there and still need surgery if I want to get that one last document changed.
Sure, I got my name legally changed, changed my gender on my ID and with Social Security, and have been living openly as this gender for years, but no they can't possibly change the gender on my birth certificate, what if I'm just faking so I can sneak into the women's room?

For the first one, is it allowing you to change your gender marker on your birth certificate? I know from personal experience that you can already change the gender on your ID without even a doctor's note.
For the second one I have to disagree on the "it's obviously designed to protect women" part. No, it's very clear that the only reason that the bill exists is to harm trans people.

Wait, so In Michigan it's only ok to seduce a woman if she's already married?

No, it's us too. We're just the kind of nice trailer park.
