You don't have to go across the ocean to find labor issues. The agriculture industry in the U.S. has questionable labor practices, and everyone has to buy food. There is little transparency with how food is produced, just like how ther

Regardless of "fruit of poison tree" laws, information known is hard to unknow, and it wouldn't be surprising if information leaked to others could be used to lead hounds to foxes via different paths.

Charities often have strict income limits regarding those who they will serve. Some of the charities your link mentions state they can only serve a limited number of patients. Many of the programs are in a single county. You may end up havi

What with the low cost of cellphone service and the high cost of raising a child, I find it hard to believe that parents don't at least equip their child with a feature phone that allows voice and text. It allows you to: A) Check in at

It does not have to be actual kids picking on another child, but the child can feel excluded. When I grew up my mom chronically destroyed the TVs we had because of content she didn't approve of. Sometimes we would be without a TV for y

In the 90s there was a big fear of stranger danger, and that your child might get abducted, but maybe that was just pumped up scaremongering. It's much easier to coordinate with a child if they have a cellphone. You can send a text or

Being a parent isn't a very good indicator of good advice either. It seems that a favorite past time of parents which I have observed is commenting on the poor parenting done by others, including such gems as "they got their 11 ye

When did Louis C.K. become the guru of the internet, and when did parents decide they should accept parenting advice from a comic who's act is extremely child unfriendly? Not only do I think a child not having a cellphone(even just a b

Just because you didn't have a serious reaction, doesn't mean others won't. Mislabeling of food products is not an acceptable solution. Those with food allergies need to know what is going into their food.

Lights are used indoors all day long in much of the world. If you don't like poking holes in your roof, then you probably don't like sun windows either. The gravity light requires manual labor to produce light, has moving parts th

I am not sure this story is really about the need for socialized medicine. This is more about the need of specialist care and second opinions. If most doctors he saw determined that he most likely would not survive treatment, a socialized m

I think he's probably underestimating his responsibilities and overestimating those of the other employees. It also sounds like he has to deal with things he doesn't want to deal with, not that he has nothing he has to do. The details of th

Many people still receive their pay in the form of a paper check. I personally pay my rent with a paper check, or at least have my bank send one out. Debit cards are certainly more popular and less risky than your personal check though.
