I'm sure you're all outraged.

Well, if it's on X then it's definitely true.

You made the comment about values initially. What do you think those are? I did not make the same claim. What do you see in the Constitution that relates to student loans? Vague notions of freedom and liberty notwithstanding, because I don't see how they relate.

Lots of independent verification in that report, regardless of what you want to think. It was working until trump. He jacked it all up.

Wanting to cite to a third party... https://www.aph.gov.au/About_Parliament/Parliamentary_Departments/Parliamentary_Library/pubs/rp/rp1718/Quick_Guides/IranNuclear#:~:text=The%20deal%20is%20working%20and,abiding%20by%20the%20JCPOA's%20terms. It was entirely some idiot in our country that gave...

You made the comment about values and what we are. What di you think that is?

It was actually working. No evidence to the contrary.

Don't forget who pulled out of the Iran nuclear treaty, which was working. A very stupid choice.

What do you think this country is, as founded? What do you think our values are?

...and nothing of value was lost.

Like most things, it's not a simple black and white issue. There's a lot of nuance and a lot of players in the student loan and tuition issue that make sound bites satisfying but not realistic.

Honest question, born of ignorance: is this different from what the CMP does?

Oh, I was in Minneapolis during the protest/riots, too. And yes, take any Andy Griffith town in the country and you'll find a bar you just shouldn't go into. It doesn't make it a lawless city or mean politicians have let the city deteriorate. That is a fallacious argument (hasty...

I said it as a stereotype. There are definitely people who talk about how christian they are but in reality are some of the worst people I've met. Very much not in keeping with Christianity or any of Jesus' teachings.

Indeed. Don't put too much faith in them. Author might be one step from his Mad Max fan fiction.

If you do come back, there is a terrific burger joint called "The Nook" in St. Paul. Also, Fogo de Chao is always fantastic for a carnivorous person. If you want to try something more exotic there is a Nigerian restaurant in "Little Mogadishu" I recommend highly. Urban renewal has been...

Raw, unmitigated garbage. I spend plenty of time in downtown Minneapolis with not a shred of fear for myself or a lady I'm with. "Little Mogadishu", also known as Cedar-Riverside, is where my favorite mountaineering story was located until last fall when online shopping finally killed their...

Yes, quite a lot. Wilderness camping in both winter and summer, getting in by foot/canoe or snowshoes/skis. I did the Wet Highland Way (yes, I know it's called the WEST Highland Way, but with all the cold highland rain that week I feel fine with "Wet". Also, midges are the devil) with some...

I'd say it should be adjusted for inflation, at least. Life is more expensive. For a high-school kid working part time, maybe. But "moving on to the next stage of life" wasn't the reason for minimum wage. It was to create a minimum standard of living. No one in a first-world country should...
