...have surgery, and one way or another, manage to get back to work that week to keep the business going, get the mortgage paid and feed the family. Even among the salaried folks, we do see a good percentage who take sick-time fairly and responsibly. What a glaring contrast they are to the corporate or government employee whose minor injury keeps him out - but paid - for months at a time. Months during which we are forced to fill out ever more ridiculous disability forms every two weeks...

...LInton, by contrast, devotes 11 pages to Michigan, tackling the pre-Roe ban and the appeals court ruling just for starters. From there it moves on to list four provisions in the state declaration of rights that pro-choice forces might use to assert abortion rights (including the equal protection clause). Then it provides Linton's detailed assessment of how each would fail. While he reaches the same conclusion that What if Roe Fell drew, Linton's is infinitely more finely argued. There are 70 footnotes...
