Overall, you should be able to donate to whatever cause is legal for you to donate to. If say, you wanted to send support to Ukraine or alternatively Russia, a sovereign person would be able to. But we all know it's a fool's err

That would make more sense if if there weren't locals who needed intensive care. We have many, many people who fall through the cracks. Why do they take second place to people 5,000+ miles away? It's cool that they want to be c

I somehow doubt Cairo, Damascus or Baghdad would get targeted. Or, we could go to 1,000NM and include Athens and Istanbul and Kuwait. When our own Armed forces folks need hospital care, we take them to DE or IT. we don't fly them all

Do we normally say Europeans or Chinese were literate 400 years ago, even with woodblocks and printing presses? Some people knew how to read and write and do math, sure, but would we call them literate societies? Even at 10% proficiency we

There are many self-employed people in the third world who do not earn "living wages" what do you propose they do? Never was minimum wage equivalent to a living wage. A living wage is an ill-defined term. Does it mean I can affor

What did we stop doing? The sterilization program is ongoing. There are always periodic outbreaks in Central America and Mexico. The current one started in 2023. One common vector is illegal cattle trafficking.

The 170MM figure is referring to all losses of life like the purges, man-made famines (Holodomor), inept ww ii strategies, as well as “unborn” children. This last one has no reference so it’s impossible to know what that means or how many

Yes, obviously; but it’s not the end of the cattle industry as some make it out to be. To clarify: it was never eradicated. It’s been actively managed and kept at bay. Now it’s punching through some holes.

That’s how we manage them now. I mean before we had that program, we dealt with the pest/infestation that way and we can in the future too if need be to combat what’s getting through. Obviously neutralizing them down in the isthmus i

The key to managing this pest [edit: after it breaches the isthmus program] is through active monitoring, treating infested wounds as well as conducting castration and dehorning in less active months. It’s not like cattle herds didn’t exis

I think you can gauge that from the historical performance of students from those sources. Of course, there is a lag as schools either improve or dilute grades.

I think legacy admissions is only supported by the elites —be they leftists or rightists. Normal leftists and normal rightists don’t support legacy admissions (pay to play). I think the vast majority of people would support fair admissions

It's possible. It's probably too early to tell and things will settle in due time. One possible outcome is that if high minimum wages are placed across the board in all states and the feds enforce e-verify that we'll become

Didn’t want to often can mean cannot. Many of those businesses would go bankrupt. Also some people who may have started a business will now forgo that possibility. Now, for many that’s okay. People just have to be okay that that happens.
