Raise prices on education and care services. Do it through tax policy, worker organization, and the ideas you mention like more leave. Somehow we need to make educated people and well-cared-for people a result that people want to pay for.

But why do those occupations pay less and why are women more often in them? Why do women have less experience? Why do they have less access to economic output after taking on the lion’s share of caregiving needed in society? That is the res

If this doesn't work out, can we at least keep one day a year? Please don't shop on Thanksgiving!

Resurrect the original promise of OpenID! I want this capability, but I definitely don't want it controlled by big companies, and poor stewards of consumer best interests at that.

Exciting! I'm still badly in need of a bookmark manager (and hopefully sync-capable) since xmarks shutdown. I'm looking at Shiori, ymarks, and Floccus. How does Reminiscence compare?

Thank you for laying that out well. It's a shame the concept of time-to-replace can be overlooked.

This is a good and simple thing to focus on. My working theory—-as a parent of a soon-to-be teenager—was that teens are missing out on any true responsibility. No one expects them to do anything that actually is crucial to the family or com

Yep, this rings true for many women whose careers I’ve been able to watch. Can’t say I have it figured out, but my instinct agrees with yours. Is it that men won’t allow women in the circle due to pride? Or perhaps the only place men give w

Great movie. Stylistically it's aged quite a bit, but that in itself was interesting to think about when I watched it recently. If you're ever in Durham don't miss a Bulls game...great newer facility and the old one from the

I'm sympathetic to Gatto's arguments and also intrigued by alternative schooling models, but I wonder what has kept it all so fringe? Does anyone have insights into Gatto's credibility?

Call it a dividend; we could all expect out monthly American Dividend check and it would perhaps help congeal some sense of common purpose as well.

Give your life to someone for 25 years (think about what that means and what one gives up for that other person) and then see what you think of that other person if they simply leave you for an upgrade. This is not controversial. It is, how
