How does action at the individual state level have anything to do with the failure of fiscal responsibility at the federal level?

Oh, it doesn't, just a trolling attempt and a thread failure.

No money, no services. It's as simple as that.
Just watch as more services get de-funded.

Are you saying that the high unemployment rates in those states are less important than de-funding Planned Parenthood?

Considering that Republicans recently made a big federal issue about light bulbs, I don't think the GOP has much room to talk.

Repubs think that all planned parenthood does is abortions thats why you see this attack on PP. They could care less about the poor and middle class. Remember all repubs care about are the rich who line their pockets.

I don't recall any "big issue". They simply tanked it. Much ado about a hairdo.

Reading is fundemantal. Individual state action on one subject has nothing to do with federal action/inaction on the economy and budget.

The OP is trying to tie together two things that are completely unrelated as a failed trolling attempt to respond to a thread about action Sen. Feinstien is attempting at the federal level.

See the difference?

DE-Funding? As the country attempts to pull itself out of massive debt? What exactly is the issue?

Only 33% of PP money is from government, not 100% like some think.
All PP has to do is send some "gimme more money" letters to the rich who donate.

Anyone who is concerned should send their check to PP in those states.
Let PP become 100% donator funded. Nothing wrong with that.

Go on..send in your check.
