Also seems necessary for all the H-1B fraud.

    Turning and turning in the widening gyre
    The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
    Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
    The best lack all conviction, while the worst
    Are full of passionate intensity.

    Surely some revelation is at hand;
    Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
    The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
    When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
    Troubles my sight: somewhere in the sands of the desert
    A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
    A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
    Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
    Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
    The darkness drops again; but now I know
    That twenty centuries of stony sleep
    Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
    And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
    Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

People who oppose Trump don't do themselves any favors by misrepresenting this stuff. The guy is a ghoul and says plenty of terrible things that don't need misrepresentation to make him look bad.

I believe in public service, but PSLF is just another way student loans distort the labor market & stifle competition and innovation.

Selling near all time highs = being fearful while others are being greedy.

UI Request: Make the font darker. That light font on a light background is extremely hard to read.

Don't these suits usually result in a fine and an agreement to stop doing XYZ while both parties wink and nod, then the government lawyers go work in lucrative private practice a few years later?

It WOULD work, but alas, you don't do it.

This is also why the USA has all those anti-strike laws, especially regarding railroads.

By massive inefficiencies being removed from our economy.

Also, it'll literally be cheaper if you look at any other country that has implemented it.

There will be a huge wave of innovation whenever the USA implements nationalized healthcare.

I am top mod on a few large ("top 1% by size") subreddits and am always interested in those sorts of perspectives.

Our existing insurance model is basically a giant racketeering scam. The lack of access to affordable healthcare increases crime, stifles innovation, decreases longevity and quality of life, and has created a breeding ground for lot of the crazier shit we are seeing in America.

I think we see Medicare For All sometime in the next 10-15 years. The first major party nominee for President who embraces it is going to get elected.

Paris casts twenty-five millions yearly into the water. And this without metaphor. How, and in what manner? Day and night. With what object? With no object. With what intention? With no intention. Why? For no reason. By means of what organ? By means of its intestine. What is its intestine? The sewer.

Twenty-five millions is the most moderate approximative figure which the valuations of special science have set upon it.

Science, after having long groped about, now knows that the most fecundating and the most efficacious of fertilizers is human manure. The Chinese, let us confess it to our shame, knew it before us. Not a Chinese peasant—it is Eckberg who says this,—goes to town without bringing back with him, at the two extremities of his bamboo pole, two full buckets of what we designate as filth. Thanks to human dung, the earth in China is still as young as in the days of Abraham. Chinese wheat yields a hundred fold of the seed. There is no guano comparable in fertility with the detritus of a capital. A great city is the most mighty of dung-makers. Certain success would attend the experiment of employing the city to manure the plain. If our gold is manure, our manure, on the other hand, is gold.

What is done with this golden manure? It is swept into the abyss.

And America has a higher baby death rate than China, Russia, Japan, and the EU.

I wonder what all those countries have in common that we don't.
