   Seeing what is happening in the world, I agree with you. While America does not have a perfect history and is not a perfect system, there is no other country in the world right now that i would rather have overwhelming military advantage ov

   I dont understand why this makes sense in uber-hot Texas. Why not northern, cooler states or even Alaska.

   probably because high-wealth individuals have a lot more wealth preservation instruments available to them and paying a $300/hr to professionals that help them navigate these tax reduction techniques makes very little sense when youre

   Can you point me to more info on “free college” of the past? I know that for this immigrant few years off the boat, federal grants and deferred interest loans was what gave me access to education that would otherwise put a huge burden on m

   I place less blame on taxpayers and more blame on exploding administration costs. On other hand, my alma matter - University of California system - cost $4500 per year in in-state tuition alone when I graduated in 2000 when minimum wage her

    Thank you for sharing, DeanCommie. In my experience reading the interwebs, a non-negligible amount of people see anti-Zionism as a belief that the state of Israel should not exist without seeming any nuance. Same goes for definition of Zion

    I am curious if that medical plan has done cost benefit analysis of impact of ozempic etc will have on downstream diabetes and heart disease costs for people who would otherwise be morbidly obese.

    Thanks for saying that. Reading your comment made me actually want to read the article in question and I am super glad I did. Emotionally, probably a best reminder of familial love in a world filled with indifference and often hate

    Same point stands. Their circumstances are not conducive to any kind of learning whether before or during college and should be addressed instead of getting rid of merit-based college admissions

    You’re describing an edge case which will arguably prevent the imaginary second person from succeeding in college even if they get accepted. Instead we should leave criteria merit based and invest in social programs that give the high schoo

    We should advocate for social programs that allow high school kids “make ends meet” without impacting everyone’s academic acceptance criteria.
