(91,807 posts)Roe v Wade would be overturned because romney would appoint judges to do so, and yes there will be judges up in the next four years that he will appoint.
Women's rights would be taken back at least 70 years
Planned parenthood, PBS, would have funding slashed. Social security and Medicare would be privatized. Wall street would finally get the opportunity to get hold of people's social security
The ACA would have the most important parts reversed
We would commit more troops to the middle east
We would follow the PNAC doctrine of manifest destiny in the middle east. No reason not to believe it, since the advisors with bush, are now with romney
If you believe what they say, interest rates would eventually start going back up, much sooner than they should, and if it is anything like the thirties, we have a very real potential to sink into a real depression.
