Wolfie - I reread the article after reading your comment and I disagree that the article in any way even touches on the idea of replacing beef by killing free-roaming bison - and don't know what you mean about "one sided reporting".The article is simply about reporting efforts to rebuild a fragment of a vanishing ecology by setting up an unbroken area where bison would roam as they used to.The specific American Prairie mentions a goal of 500,000 acres, and the largest land area mentioned as a grand possibility of open bison range area is three million acres. That sounds like a lot, but that is also just a bit bigger than the four largest ranches in the USA, using the list linked below.So the biggest area they mention is 5% of Wyoming's area, or 3% of Montana.Not to replace the US over-abundant beef supply. To restore a vanishing ecosystem we shouldn't lose.The reporting touches on a lot of benefits we'd gain in providing natural habitat for a great number of species, but varied landscapes without human's heavy agricultural footprint simply IS more varied.<a href="https://www.farmlandriches.com/largest-ranches-usa" target="_blank">https://www.farmlandriches.com/largest-ranches-usa</a>/

Last week Bret was trolling for sympathy for the hard-pressed New Yorkers who have to scrap by on $400,000/year. Now he wants construction workers to toil away at some “easier job” till they are 70, so that his friends can cut Social Security. Apparently, despite his endless performance of vocabulary, he has no idea what “shame” means.The right wing disdain for ordinary people has no limits. Bret may pretend to be a reasonable conservative—whatever that is—but he has the same scorn for anyone not rich as the rest of them.

I would write the early to current reaction to COVID as a failure due to require the most-effective measures be taken.In the earliest days, that meant requiring masks and encouraging isolation, regardless of age.Research by universities and companies accepting a cent of government aid should have been placed, daily, on “open shelf” websites, preventing the tremendous waste of duplicate dead-end research.Given the magnitude of the pandemic, fights and limits on a party’s use of the intellectual property or patents of another should have come off the table until the crisis ended - at which time judges or arbiters could decide how much company A owed company B for using a patented technique, with profits redistributed or licenses negotiated.In the middle of a major fire, a water company doesn’t demand immediate payments per gallon.As soon as mRNA vaccines were available, the failure was not requiring anyone entering a building open to either the public or a random group of unrelated people (a store, school or office) to be “fully vaccinated”, with an early effort (delayed by politics of supply and of antivax lies) to require everyone without a medical condition saying “do otherwise”, regardless of age, to be vaccinated and masked indoors in public.Current national regs should require 6-month boosters with updated viral templates, masks still required, even tracking restaurant patrons and staff, or at least a public list of places/dates which could have meant exposure.

Great idea: for a united front—that never wavers—of global democracies sticking up for one another would act as the single greatest dissuasion/deterrent toward any itchy-trigger-finger dictator from getting the wrong idea.Corporatism/Corporatocracy has allowed these monsters to grow in our backyards, by inviting the vampires in and by buying off too many of our “Western” politicians in its race to the bottom… as if doing business with violent autocrats (overtly engaged in violent revanchist rhetoric and with a chip on their shoulders!) wasn’t giving a hostage to fortune that would come back to haunt us, eventually. Yet Totalitarianism is not just a shopportunity, alas….If we as democracies want to make it through the 21st century intact, all in one piece… we need to recommit to supporting one another and running Autocracy Inc. out of town whenever and wherever possible. We don’t truly NEED them, after all; they need us… with our free markets and open rule of law… to conduct their global business and money-laundering.Hopefully Putin’s Ukraine war will be a wake-up call, finally; because Global Democracies can never make this mistake again.

Regarding the $400: Approach the friend kindly and ask if they would find it easier to repay you in installments, such as $100 a month. It's quite possible that the friend is having financial trouble and is embarrassed to admit they are hoping for a sudden improvement in their finances so they can afford to pay you back. It's not great that they have implied they are about to pay you and then not followed through, but they may have thought they could round up the funds to do this more quickly than it turns out.

Five years should be the max for brand name top-tier drugs at regular retail. Then they should have to go generic. Companies that invest in research and development deserve some return, but some of this is really hurting people. Xarelto, taken daily if you have AFib, is another example. $500+ a month and it's been over five years. I have decent coverage, for which I am grateful, but I'll hit the donut hole by July.

In the midst of this battle for the soul of our nation and the future of democracy, some real talk: The reason Greene got elected is because there are millions of Americans who do not trust government. Greene is wrong about a panoply of issues (Israel is not using space lasers on anyone) but she’s right to be skeptical about the government story about what happened on 9/11. The absolute media ostracism of anyone who questions the Bush administration’s narrative and ensuing war on terror reinforced among skeptics that government was at least using the event to justify nation building and prior geopolitical goals. It turned Glenn Greenwald from a lawyer to an investigative journalist and it turned me paranoid. I get it, Dems weren’t in power from 2001-2009 and no one has accused Obama or Biden of what people have alleged the Bush administration to have done. But to understand why Greene appeals to people, and to eventually have both smarter representatives and better governance, the media has to explore the full story of a full decade of the politics of fear: how neocon groups like the Project for a New American Century called for a “new Pearl Harbor” to extend American influence abroad and command oil resources; how credible reporters like David Cay Johnston, James Bamford, Steve Coll and Sy Hersh have all questioned Bush’s connections to dark groups; and how the silence about it only makes Americans more paranoid and encourages Republicans to do worse actions in the future.

The big difference is that, for the first time in history, there are more savings than there are lucrative places to invest it -- hence, $500 million yachts and cryptocurrency. Therea re plenty of places that need investment, but these are not the kinds of investments that pay dividends (think, water resources in Africa), so the investor class does not want the surplus savings to go there.

It's worth noting the 2023 marginal tax rate for those filing as "Single" is 32% for incomes over $182,100 and 35% for incomes over $231,250. That does not include state and local taxes, property taxes, social security taxes, Medicare taxes or sales tax. There is also a 15% long-term capital gains tax for "Single" filers with incomes above $44,626, and 20% for those with incomes above $492,300. One need not be "wealthy" to be on the receiving end of these high tax rates. Many are retirees, who saved for years, who by virtue of their age have significant required minimum distributions from their IRA or 401k accounts. Many "wealthy" taxpayers run businesses which create millions of good paying jobs. They also create jobs indirectly through the services and goods they consume. Go ahead and tax them even more. And then watch as they move overseas, choose not to expand their businesses, or reduce personal consumption. Who will suffer the most in that scenario? Why, the very people who presumably we want to help at the lower end of the economic spectrum. We had an effective model back in the late 1990’s with the Clinton-Gingrich era of fiscal discipline and somewhat higher tax rates. If we raise taxes back to the 1990’s levels, special accommodation should be given to higher income seniors, both in terms of their taxation rates and Medicare premiums. And while we're at it, let's cut military spending in half.

Aside indeed from the problematic notion of "fine" dining, the note about the still twitching shrimp reminded me of an odd but regular experience I partake in as a scuba diver: regularly, while diving, fellow divers and I will sometimes crack open an urchin and eat it underwater, before even surfacing. Same with scallops. It's something we do kind of for fun. More often, we'll prepare sashimi on the deck of the boat after surfacing. The fish is minutes old. What strikes me as discordant here is how probably almost everyone in restaurants like Noma would never think to step foot on a wet, messy dive boat, jump in the ocean, deal with waves, a pitching boat, the weather, cold, etc. to obtain an experience even more rarified than their own, yet will spend thousands of dollars to satiate their egos in these 'temples of food.'It's a grotesque practice of the world's elite, and I'll take any Indian market or taquero on the street any day--or collect my own seafood--before I'll spend a dime in these exploitive, grotesque spectacles of commercial excess.

"Nobody really knows". But a few questions:1. For a government is deliberately putting people out of work ethical?2. If so is the labor market dynamic enough to minimize the impact and if not what should be done about it? Perhaps the target at a minimum should be having job openings exceed the number looking for jobs by say 25%.

I live in a place called the Hominy Valley near Asheville, NC, so I'm no stranger to stone ground grits or hominy. (In fact, my family used to make our own hominy, a messy process involving lye best done outside on an open fire.)Having said that, I have to admit I'm also a fan of instant grits. With a half cup of boiling water, a package of instant grits and a few seconds you can enjoy hot grits with your fried egg.

It would help if the NYT explained that the word "insulin" now covers a range of biological molecules. If a doctor prescribed the original $1 patent type of insulin, they would be subject to medical malpractice lawsuits. Tweaking insulin and getting a new variety, that offers better safety or efficacy, through the FDA process is neither trivial nor inexpensive. That said, pricing in the pharmaceutical industry should be fair for patients, middlemen, and investors. Quick check on greed: what dividend does Eli Lilly pay? Easy to look up. 1.26% at today's stock price. Anyone who wants to share in the greed can buy the stock and pocket that hefty rate of return. I'll pass.

This is yet another p.r. article for the rulers to give your hard earned money to the capitalists, in this case chip makers.The Semiconductor Industry Association hints at 277,000 new employees. But, the article won't cite an economist saying this would reduce unemployment. If their giveaway was expanded ten times to include other industries, would this reduce unemployment by 2,770,000 workers?Like the excessive military budgets for enriching capitalists, far in excess of that needed to protect America; such expenditures reveal that Americans are horribly and unfairly taxed, yet the rulers won't give you an easy way to opt out.

My experience has been that *some* recipients of help respond by resenting the person offering the aid. Most are grateful. I’ve never made any assistance public because that could cause shame or resentment. Still, LW1 illustrates as many have pointed out that no good deed goes unpunished. Does this family resent the largesse?I’m also curious as to whether LW1 and his husband have been paying gift taxes on $6000 x 12. Maybe they have counted the limit from each of them to each family member to slip in under the legal limit?

If you were in at the beginning and got out when the first problems started, some did well. He only put in 15k and it is down to about 3k in total and he still thinks it will come back.

The debt crisis has a habit of happening with Democrats in the White House. The Republican House held up the debt ceiling four times during the Obama administration, the first time, in 2011, they got so close to actual default that S&P downgraded US debt anyway, and that debt is downgraded to this day. It has cost taxpayers an extra $19 Billion a year. And the Republican House has gotten more extreme every year.This means that it is inevitable that eventually they will go too far and default for the first time in history. It is in their nature. The Republicans on Wall Street should have thought about this when they were shoveling campaign funding to the most extreme right-wing cranks. But they didn't. So, it's not if, but when. It is time for Wall Street to get ready for global default. The white house should get ready for economic collapse and a new great recession. And all the seniors on social security who voted Republican need to get ready to eat crow, because they certainly aren't going to eat anything else without their social security checks.

This about whether half the country's populace retains bodily autonomy. But there's a far bigger picture in that it took 200,000 years for our population to reach 1 billion, 170 years to then expand to 4 billion, and only 47 years to surpass 8 billion. Apropos, forty-six states currently endure extreme or severe water shortage at least one month a year, as does 30% of our global population, and it's worsening.Scottsdale's cutting off water to Rio Verde was but the first highly publicized round in pending water wars where only those controlling its distribution will claim access. Concurrently, a fundamentalist religiopolitical sect is attempting to force birth on every woman or child in the nation who becomes impregnated. Having arguably passed the carrying capacity for our kind on this planet, this is the stupidest possible move at the worst possible time.

Consumers are valued customers until we need support, then we become the enemy wanting to steal the holy grail. Consumers are Davids and very rarely does a slingshot stone get through to cause a Goliath to blink or do the right thing. Great job by Seth Kugel to dig deeply enough to find the stone that made Goliath blink and do the right thing. And even when he found a way to pursue this, it still took threatening legal action and the influence of the NYT to get American or Trip Mate to move on this. There's got to be a way that us average folk can reach a decision maker, not a poor CSR who's job is to deflect until we go away. I could read the 299 page General Rules of International Tariff, but I'm guessing I wouldn't find a relevant passage to my issue. There's got to be a way companies do the right thing for the customer, automatically, not the right thing for the officers bonuses and the shareholder's value. It's too bad that 'just doing the right thing' can't be monetized into shareholder profit or loss then perhaps things might change for the better. Whether you vote blue or red, as long as lobbyists can influence elections, laws won't be created to change the system.

I think Biden's handling of classified documents is worse.First, IMO it is an open question as to whether Trump even took "classified" documents, as it may be (the supreme court may decide this) that the president has the power to declassify documents at will, whereas the VP certainly doesn't. Also, politically, the first documents were apparently discovered shortly before the midterm elections, and yet for some reason this was not disclosed until after those elections, when they very well could have impacted, negatively for democrats, some of the close races.

Stephen Boyington Well, Steve Cohen has a lot of money. Round numbers here, but he could give away a million dollars a day every day for 27 years and still not run out of it. And that's only if he didn't invest it and just kept it in boxes in his garage until it was all gone. I he invested it at, say, 4% interest ... aw, heck. He'd make more than a million a day of interest and would keep getting richer even as he handed boxes of cash out the door.

When they tried to raise rates the markets pitched a fit and the Fed did nothing. Is that normal?"I am of the opinion that if it took that many years to recoup from the big bank screw ups/criminal activity of that period, well then it's because there are deeper issues with the system.

It baffles me to no end that someone thinks $500 per person for a single meal is a worthwhile investment. And some of the comments "less than $200 pp" are just as absurd. I love food. But to think the more it costs the better it is its laughable. I've eaten at these types of restaurants and the food has never lived up to the hype nor the price. I've concluded these types of diners are more interested in the snobbery that comes with overpaying than eating good food or leaving with a full belly. I'm laughing now thinking how many of these diners stopped at McDonald's on the way home because they weren't satisfied by their $500 meal.

The new rest stops will probably use "localwashing", like many airports, to give travelers the veneer of including local business. Huge contracts with multi-billion dollar investment groups do not usually generate fresh concepts that are affordable. A grocery area and gift shop with NY-state brands (great opportunity to educate the public about regional businesses), food trucks (fun, tasty and affordable), farmers markets, good coffee, creative sandwiches under $10—that's the dream. Instead, it will probably be just another profit center.

To Ms. Goldberg and the New York Times: Please do some of your excellent journalistic investigations as to the origins of this strange and rather sudden increase in "gender dysphoria" in young people, especially children who have not reached puberty or even know much about sex. Claiming without a deep dive into these origins, particularly on the internet that this is all coming from peer influences is disingenuous. Adult activists and possibly nefarious outside influences from overseas are surely a part of this. Can it be yet another attempt by bad actors to destabilize our society and further the right-left political divide? Your own article recently "Putin's War" quoted Putin as making fun of Americans and (paraphrase) all of our so-called genders. Also, it does no one any good to continue to claim that these children will commit suicide if they can't fully transition and will plant these ideas in the minds of vulnerable young people, furthering the "cause". This all must come out in the open and all people on the right and left must be willing to confront the real questions. Schools must tell parents, even if a social worker or counselor is present to judge any danger to the child, if their child is making such huge changes in school.

Mark It ain't necessarily so. Many of the rich, especially in the US are highly leveraged. Some that I know would never want to pay cash for their cars, homes, lifestyle expenditures if they can borrow . . Although much recently created wealth is in the form of illiquid private company stock, restricted stock, partnership interests, etc. to the extent they have had liquidity events or otherwise have assets that can be used as collateral they'll leverage up. The rich use leverage to diversify their investments and try to do so in ways where they can offset interest payments against taxable income. But you are correct in the sense that the the poor pay higher interest rates, have higher debt burden measured against income and have a higher risk of non-payment and the additional costs arising from default situations. We could avoid some of the distribution effect of debt repayment if the debt is held by the government instead of private owners. Thus, interest repaid would flow into our Treasury to the benefit of the whole country. From a generational standpoint the pensions and retirement accounts of many retired seniors are invested in debt instruments. Granted poor people in America don't have much in their IRA accounts, but they do have accounts, and might be entitled to a corporate or government sponsored pensions upon retirement. For the last decade of low interests some of the biggest complainers were retirees looking for low risk , high interest rate bonds .

If we’d away aside the partisan fervor for a minute, there’s a critical lesson to be learned here — the system is broken. Our democracy doesn’t work. This isn’t about Republicans without scruples (though this group seems special). This is about a Congress that is paid for and does the work for the donor class. We have a budget written by two elderly, retiring Senators. It’s been 25 years since Congress passed a bill of any consequence that didn’t involve spending money we don’t have. We need to wake up. We spent about $300b annually on servicing the debt. And between interest rates rising and entitlement costs soon to go through the roof, soon we’ll have nothing left to fight a war on illiteracy in Chicago public schools, much less against Russia in Ukraine. This isn’t just another episode of pathetic Republican leadership. This is the next chapter in the end of how elected govt works in America.

Dividing the working class has been an ongoing effort and priority of the ruling class for centuries. It's not as simple as Black and White though the racism that pervades American culture has a sordid history that held back organized labor in the past.Today, the divisions cultivated are partisan a well as racist, sexist, national and generational These cultivated divsions serve to impoverish all of us and to enrich those we work for and the parasitic investing class. The solution is an understanding of our common working class history as available in books like "Labor's Untold Story" and in efforts to unite across cultivated division by recognizing our common reality, issues and the mutual benefits of a culture of class solidarity -- which can be found in cultural venues like The Blue Collar Review which seeks to unify working people around issues that affect us all and to foster a class perspective which makes that unity possible. It's vital that we recognize the power of culture to shape perspectives and the potential strength of our unified class to disempower the globally destructive rule of self-serving corporate power.

It amazes me that American Airlines and Trip Mate were willing to risk unflattering publicity in a major news publication just to maintain their default position that the customer is at fault or did something wrong when clearly both companies dropped the ball in service to their customers. All in an effort to make sure not one precious cent leaves their coffers unnecessarily. Consumers need to be reminded that in an era when many companies pretend, through clever marketing and hollow platitudes, that customer satisfaction is their number one priority, their foremost obligations and loyalties continue to lay with their stockholders and investors.While many companies do in fact go to great lengths to make their customers happy (and I applaud those forward thinking businesses), it is precisely the behavior demonstrated by American and Trip Mate that bolster the argument that government regulatory oversight is necessary to protect consumer interests. Voters also need to be reminded that the shameless, publicity hungry politicians parading around the Congress last week would be the first to make sure that such oversight will never come to be as THEIR loyalties lay with their corporate donors.

Ever since corporate raiders bought a controlling interest in the Republican Party during the Reagan years, the sole agenda of the GOP has been to facilitate the redistribution of wealth into their owners' pockets. Beyond tax cuts and removing legislative and regulatory barriers to greed, it means eliminating anything that benefits non-wealthy Americans. Eliminating social programs is necessary to reduce the debt and deficit that threatens the supply of free money for the party's owners to leverage and erodes their hoarded wealth. This agenda is difficult to sell to the millions of people the party needs to consistently and enthusiastically vote against their own interests. With nothing to offer 99.99% of us, they must rely on distracting their voters with hot-button culture war issues. It won't matter that Republicans are taking away their health care as long as they're committed to protecting the unborn, defending the God-given right to own assault weapons, protecting children from "groomers," and above all defending Free Market Capitalism from the far-left Socialism Democrats want to impose! Trump only made explicit the bigotry, racism, homophobia, and general hatred that was always implicit in the culture wars.The propaganda has worked so well that it has even distracted Republican politicians from their party's real agenda. Culture wars became their top priority because they were voters' priorities. That will only exacerbate their longstanding inability to govern.

He passed critical campaign strategy and polling data to a the same Russian spy he’d been working with for a decade in Ukraine, also as a commisar, er, I mean political consultant advantaging Putin’s candidate of choice.It is absurd Mr Manafort walks free today with this finding and absurd this finding exists but was not acted upon.

Did crypto inflate due to excessively low interest rate policy and complete disregard for traditional valuation methodologies and magical thinking? Absolutely, yes. But, I think there's a deeper reason you haven't picked up on as to why Millenials and Gen Z dabbled in crypto. Both generations have seen severely limited wealth creation relative to prior generations. The hurdles for owning a home, starting a family or just achieving some limited degree of success are so far higher than they have been for Boomers or Gen X that Millenials and Gen Z were willing to put some of their precious little capital at risk in the event that they--like so many visible examples of crypto millionaires--would have some chance at recouping the lost ground brought to them by high inflation, relatively low (historical) wages, student debt, high housing cost and more. These generations are being absolutely crushed by demographic and macroeconomic factors out of their control. However misguided it was to invest in crypto, it wasn't only because of the Fed or "magical thinking" insomuch as those were isolated phenomena. The "magical thinking" was that they could perhaps have a chance at regaining their opportunity to successfully achieve the American dream that's so increasingly difficult to capture.

After 40yrs in a stock fund that returns 5% on average, they would have 1.079 million dollars. At 8% avg return, that would be 2.4 million dollars. Granted, that would be worth something like 700k a year in today’s dollars because of inflation, but still.

I hope that Unleashed Brands failure to disclose ongoing litigation in their FDDs opens a window for you to manage your business under your own auspices.In terms of the “non-compete,” the entity against which you’re allegedly competing no longer exists. Even if the non-compete applied to “heirs and assigns,” it seems new ownership unilaterally and materially changed terms in a way that constitutes a break with previous ownership and therefore nullifies your previous agreement.I’m glad you have representation from a former FTC lawyer and hope he can see a way out of the Unleashed Brands extortion racket.

Actually it is just the opposite. Jared Kushner flunked multiple security clearances but still eventually got approval in a way no one does. But for his position as son-in-law. He got a $2 billion deal with Saudi Arabia to serve as an investment banker despite no experience. And there are no investigations of this by Democrats during the last 2 years. And he was one of the most influential members of the Trump administration.

I don't see anything in LW1's inquiry that says he and his husband agreed to anything more than (!) the initial purchase, forgoing rent, and property taxes. Even if they paid some or all maintenance in the past, that was over and above the stated terms of the agreement. The equitable defense of detrimental reliance that Prof. Appiah seems to propose shouldn't be a persuasive argument for sister and BIL here, because there's no mention of previous maintenance expenditure or reliance on its continuation.The sister and [employed] BIL should be grateful for and gracious about the windfall they've received. To make any further [non-emergency, foreseeable] financial demands on LW1 and his husband is in bad taste, to put it politely and mildly. The sister's psychological problems are irrelevant to the question of who should pay maintenance costs, as she's apparently never worked outside the home throughout this spectacularly generous arrangement. From what we know from the letter, she's contributed no funds to the household. (This is a question of funding, not of "enabling" or otherwise caring for an ill family member whose illness doesn't seem to be adding to the monetary costs of maintaining the home.) If the appliances are pricey and finicky, get less expensive ones. I hope the demands of the sister and BIL don't cause continuing tension between LW1 and his husband.

Please do not pretend that the increased enforcement of high-income tax returns is all about abusing the poor, $400K couple living in a high rent state. It is about the people who make a thousand times as much as that, or ten-thousand times. It is about the people who make that $400K in a single working hour, or the average yearly income of the rest of us every few minutes. This level of wealth is difficult even to comprehend, and it can place those who have it beyond almost any form of accountability. Giving the IRS the resources to deal with this crowd is the main goal here, and the desire to remain untouchable is the main source of all those multi-million dollar checks flowing into the anti-tax PACs, and into the campaign pockets of so many of our politician.

It's at 130% of GDP right now, the highest it has ever been, even higher than the WWII high, and unlike the end of WWII with no drop off in spending in sight.I thought the Sequester was a good bipartisan solution that should have forced both parties to the table to agree on less draconian spending and taxing alternatives. I thought Obama's bipartisan deficit commission had some good recommendations.As much as I agree that Republicans will make some unreasonable demands, is it any more reasonable for Democrats to refuse to even have a negotiation?

Say what you will about Microsoft, they at least gave laid-off workers 1.5 weeks of building and intranet access so they could say goodbye to colleagues. They trusted people not to sabotage anything.I'd bet this may even be better for the company--layoffs aren't just terrible for those who are laid off, they are seriously demoralizing for those who remain. A chance to connect in person helps people on both sides.

Re the letter from “Daughter-in-Law”:This MIL is a type – – one I’m very familiar with.She “loves cooking,” “thinks she’s a fantastic cook,” showcases her cooking at every meal during these long visits, is not open to takeout or restaurants, and her son is “terrified of hurting her.”If DIL takes Philip’s advice — to bring in fancy food and insert herself into the cooking — meltdown will ensue. MIL is an insecure, controlling person who derives much of her sense of identity from her cooking. Being the only person who provides the meals feeds her need to be the star of the show —at least in that arena. Her son walks on eggshells. (If it sounds like I’m suggesting a possible Cluster B disorder, well, I am.)DIL is stuck with MIL — this is not an optional relationship. She should not move into MIL’s central domain — providing food for the family. There are, I am sure, deep historic reasons why her son is “terrified” of hurting her. Don’t mess with somebody this dysfunctional. Better advice:Going forward, visit for less than one week. Construct a reason why you have to leave before your husband, and limit your exposure. Feed yourself outside the house, making sure your large tote is provisioned daily with simple foods that last at least a day without refrigeration. Make sure you always have car access — e.g., your own rental. Plead a chronic digestive diagnosis to restrict what you are expected to consume at table. Signed,I’ve Been in Your Shoes for Decades

The cats came from an illegal cheetah breeding operation conducted by faux conservationists, abetted by corrupt officials who refused to give us permits to release the cheetah into the wild. African politicians don’t want more wild predators running around killing a potential voter’s goat. Western visitors are not interested in the habitat story. They want to get close to the captive cats for photos. It’s all 99% of them care about.Even large fenced ‘preserves’ are zoos. Animals are bought/sold, collared, controlled and culled as needed. They’re giving cheetah away to India now for ‘rewilding’, a certain death sentence. But there are so many ‘excess’ captive cheetah it’s an easy PR stunt for the people involved.It comes down to the human desire for meat.

This imperative compels these companies to seek profits and to use all available technical and regulatory tools available to maximize those profits. A superficial analysis of the workings of the investment markets reveals that nearly $35 trillion is invested in US based investment funds. 61% of this money is invested in the stock market. Three firms, Blackrock, Vanguard and State Street, together control approximately 25% of the shares of the S&P 500 The capital invested in equities demands profit, and as pharma is the most profitable of industry sectors it is the profit seeking of capital that is behind high and ever increasing pharmaceutical prices, prices which are supported by the gaming of the patent system described in your article. Forty seven point four percent of American households hold shares in funds This toxic profit seeking is endorsed by the tax laws of America in that capital gains are taxed at a much lower rate than are wage income. Thus, WE are the problem, our retirement investments, our 401k’s and our stock portfolios, or at least those of us who hold such assets. All are preferentially taxed are thereby driving the inequities in medical care that bring misery to so many.

Looks like Russia could likely sustain this conflict for years. Can the US keep funding Ukraine’s economy and military for years? Thus far, we have spent over $60 Billion related to the conflict (with little or no oversight, no audits, who cares where it goes?). That’s about the entire military budget of Russia. Since 2014, we gave Ukraine over $2.5B in military aid, and trained about 80,000 of their soldiers. To argue that we, the US tax payers, were not involved, and are not fighting a war against Russia since 2014 is questionable. We don’t even know who pushes the “fire” buttons on the drones and long range weapons. We don’t even know how many Special Ops assassins (Delta, SEALs) we have in Ukraine now, let alone “advisors”.To claim that the Russians are more brutal than US military was in Iraq or Syria or Libya is patriotic but untrue. You should all do a little searching and look at the photos of Raqqa, Falujah and compare that with Mariupol. Russian torture-how about Abu Ghraib? War is horrible, and we, the US tax payers, are cheerfully getting fleeced by our government to fund a war that does not benefit us, nor the Ukrainian people noor the Russian people—it benefits the shareholders of Raytheon, General Dynamics, Northrop Grumman, but unless you work there or hold their shares, all you are doing as a US tax payer is paying for the killing of innocent civilians or conscripted, impoverished soldiers. We should see the enemy for who he is—us.

Thus far, we have spent over $60 Billion related to the conflict (with little or no oversight, no audits, who cares where it goes?). That’s about the entire military budget of Russia. Since 2014, we gave Ukraine over $2.5B in military aid, and trained about 80,000 of their soldiers. To argue that we, the US tax payers, were not involved, and are not fighting a war against Russia since 2014 is questionable. We don’t even know who pushes the “fire” buttons on the drones and long range weapons. We don’t even know how many Special Ops assassins (Delta, SEALs) we have in Ukraine now, let alone “advisors”.To claim that the Russians are more brutal than US military was in Iraq or Syria or Libya is patriotic but untrue. You should all do a little searching and look at the photos of Raqqa, Falujah and compare that with Mariupol. Russian torture-how about Abu Ghraib? War is horrible, and we, the US tax payers, are cheerfully getting fleeced by our government to fund a war that does not benefit us, nor the Ukrainian people noor the Russian people—it benefits the shareholders of Raytheon, General Dynamics, Northrop Grumman, but unless you work there or hold their shares, all you are doing as a US tax payer is paying for the killing of innocent civilians or conscripted, impoverished soldiers. We should see the enemy for who he is—us.\n",

A very well written article and consistent with my own experience in higher education. As a professor at a major university, I saw many students who, while not the brightest in the class, were driven by a willingness to learn and openness to new knowledge. This students thrived in the course because they were like a sponge soaking up information. And often ended up in the top of the course with regard to performance. In these students there was no bias of "I am not interested thus I will not work in the class to learn" or "I can do the minimum in the course and get by". In my 35 years as a profess I found the best students who captured what the author wrote were women in mid life (often after having kids) who were returning to college.My own personal experience was also consistent with the authors views. I clearly was not the brightest student out there (I scored a bit above average on SAT and GRE exams). Yet, I performed well in undergraduate and graduate school and went on to a successful career in academia. It is unfortunate that there are views out there counter to the points made by the author. Beliefs of "what do I need to do to get an A" or "Why do I have to take a course in diversity, I will never use it" result in a very myopic view of knowledge restrict the ability to intellectually blossom.

I speak as someone who attended an open enrollment community college and then a second tier state university. My high school grades and SAT scores would not have come close to qualifying me for any of the more elite universities.Nevertheless, I received an excellent education with professors who went on to teach at Yale and McGill. After graduation I made it through the very selective US State Department Foreign Service Officer process where many fail and few are chosen. I then spent almost 40 years in various demanding government positions, often surrounded by Ivy League graduates whose grammar and spelling I often had to correct.In sum, it really doesn’t matter where one learns. It is critical that one is driven to learn and to do their best in life.

Whether investing in a Harbor City fund, Theranos or Madoff - just goes to show that the ultra-wealthy are just as likely to be enraptured by and trust a 'promising' person, and to be duped by gravity-defying claims and returns as the rest of us. Please don't lecture me on due diligence. Seems I am doing just fine.
