    Migrant farm labor. Are they proposing to send a farm bus to pick up 14 year olds in front of the local high schools and middle schools?

    @fu Given that AP is derived from pump.io's current protocol, it's more amazing that no "ActivityPump" instances such as Identi.ca can speak AP yet.

    @fu The idea is that your teen probably needs to successfully finish school, so she isn't still doing that same low-wage, no-benefits job thirty years from now. And yes, that does happen.

    What these pollies are trying to do is give companies compliant and helpless workers, so they don't have to raise pay and benefits enough to attract currently unwilling adults.

    Even in SoCal, I knew a girl who quit high school because $FAST_FOOD_PLACE promised to make her a manager with a sizable raise. A year or so later, after the promotion and raise hadn't come, she changed to another FFP employer ... according to someone from the old neighborhood, she wound up perishing in a suspicious single-vehicle crash a few years later.

    That said, if you and your spouse are home schooling your kids, one of you should be the relevant school principal. City Prep's principal has no record of how well students from outside that school are doing.

    Or put another way, a nation exercising its own rightful sovereignty to fight off an invader is portrayed as little more than Beach Blanket Bingo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beach_Blanket_Bingo in the eyes of your article's writer and you agree? Shameful.

    It may not be "choosing masters". It may be choosing their own nation's course. Why is it that so many "activists" refuse to grant the right of self-direction to the people they claim to rescue?

    At the #coin-laundry

    Not too many people this morning, but it includes a couple that took about β…“ of the facility's wash capacity.

    Also, there are a couple of machines that have been "out of order" for multiple weeks. This is the "good" laundromat that gets cleaning and maintenance.

    I saw some other articles implying that gold and silver were also involved in causing the panic and its following 4-6 year depression.

      Financial Panic of 1873
      from U.S. Department of the Treasury
      The Panic of 1873 After the Civil War, the US banking system grew rapidly and seemed to be set on solid ground. But the country was hit by many banking crises. One of the worst happened in 1873 – during the time of the Freedman’s Bank. The panic started with a problem in Europe, when the stock market crashed. Investors began to sell off the investments they had in American projects, particularly railroads. Back in those days, railroads were a new invention, and companies had been borrowing money to get the cash they needed to build new lines. Railroad companies borrowed using bonds, which were debt securities specifying how much a company was borrowing and how much interest it would pay. When Europeans started selling their railroad bonds, there were soon more bonds for sale than anyone wanted. Railroad companies could no longer find anyone who would lend them cash. Many railroads went bankrupt. One of the biggest banks in New York City was Jay Cooke & Company. It had invested a lot of money in the railroads, and when the railroads started having problems, Jay Cooke & Company went bankrupt. When people saw that such a big bank failed, they began to run to their banks, demanding all of their money back. The panic spread to banks in Washington, DC, Pennsylvania, New York, Virginia and Georgia, as well as to banks in the Midwest, including those in Indiana, Illinois, and Ohio. Nationwide, at least 100 banks failed. Next: Freedman's Bank and Family Histories

    @clacke For some reason, I remember watching "V" at a different house than where I lived in 1983.

    But I still remember the food and water motive.
