Considering many cousinfucker school districts all across the US are trying to abolish social and cultural learning and all access to political science. I’d say a governor taking a stand and making it clear anti-education curriculums won’t be tolerated, is a pretty big deal.
This shit isn’t being brewed up by the people in rural school districts, whom you so rudely slur as “cousinfuckers”.
It’s being brewed up by frat boys in right-wing think tanks — if we want a sexual slur, they’re not cousinfuckers; they’re Kavanaugh-style rapists — and sold to big, rich states like Texas and Florida first.
The ignorance isn’t organic. It’s manufactured deliberately, by people who did go to college.
Yeah the cousinfuckers didn’t give a shit that long ago. It’s rich educated people paying Harvard educated lawyers to sow divisions lest we all realize that the rich sold our present for money.
I don’t know what you’re basing this on. I’ve worked at rural school districts and they get Fox news just as easily as any Frat-bro. And they are more likely to be able to storm school boards.
The people you are referring to are the cannon fodder. They have been deprived of education for generations and have grown increasingly insular, priming them to become tools of a propaganda campaign with the insideous message “you’ve been lied to your whole life…” (which isn’t wrong) “…so demand to be put back on top…” (as if these people were ever on top ) “…or burn it all to the ground.” Same logic as ISIS. They’ve been adopted into a death cult.
I don’t know if it was planned this way long ago but it’s a pretty obvious outcome in retrospect.
Percentage of gross revenue. Movie studios are old hands at making profit disappear. John Cusack posted about how Better Off Dead had (according to the studio accounting) lost money over 30 years, despite grossing millions on a low budget.
Everything should be based on gross revenue - especially taxes. You shouldn’t get to not pay for all the infrastructure your country provides just because you spent too much on the business. The electric Co, water, suppliers, and contractor services get paid whether you make money or not. Government should be the same.
They probably can’t due to the way the old LA City laws were written. He atleast admitted those laws need to be re-evaluated. Will anything come of it? Doubtful.
Just thought I'd add this report from the AZ health department. This breaks down the factors MUCH better and comes to a similar, but not quite as extreme, conclusion. Only part is normalized for population, but it gives an idea of how to scale the numbers.
I doubt medics really want to bankrupt anyone. They’re usually the lowest paid out of any emergency service. Police and fire departments are paid way higher.
My area: ~$56k - Average police starting salary
~$59k - Average fire starting salary
~$32k - Average basic EMT
~$34k - Average advanced EMT
~$39k - Average paramedic
Blame the big pharmaceutical companies and corporate takeover of hospitals and small clinics for the insanity of medical costs. The absolute shitshow that insurance has become is also a large contributor. It’s bad enough that doctors are finding it much simpler to work for corporations instead of owning their own practice because it’s easier for the big company to fight the other big company.
