To those who think I'm a leech on disability, I never applied for
Section 8.  I've paid rent, at a steep price in Montgomery County,
Maryland, from my SS income, for a long time.  I didn't want to be
beholden to the requirements.  But it would've made me more well off,
financially.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
