In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents.

It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years.

There should be no profit in education or healthcare.

Yeah well I mean, >85% of Democratic voters think this is a stupid fucking idea, >75% think negatively of Israel, and even >80% of Democratic members of Congress weren't stupid enough to vote against the WPR.

Sorry but you're a sucker if you think you can just cry and appeal to "the big tent".

Reynolds signs Iowa law barring local trans civil rights protections City and county civil rights commissions may no longer protect Iowans from gender identity-based discrimination under a law signed by Gov. Reynolds.

The first state in the US to remove statutory protections for an entire class, gender identity, has just enacted a bill preventing local municipalities from having their own protections for trans people.

NEWS: It was never about the children.

Transgender adults now face care restrictions after the ruling of the federal appeals court in Richmond, Virginia.

For awareness, Iran and Hezbollah maintain an extensive network in South America and likely have ties to certain cartels. While still a stretch in my view, it remains a plausible threat.

She’s (a) running against Ilhan, and (b)probably counting on people not figuring out that she was an ICE prosecutor before signing up to imprison people at DOJ. Her candidacy comes with a free laugh track.

I'm ready to just dispose of Congress at this point and get every US citizen on an app that lets them vote on each piece of proposed legislation themselves. What's the point of this political body if they are just an AI driven rubber stamp for the President?

Did you know that, without a court order, I can't get a certified copy of my own original birth certificate listing my name at birth?

Key oversight helping keep student loan records accurate has stopped, a watchdog says Without this Education Department oversight, borrowers could "be placed in the wrong loan repayment status, billed for incorrect amounts" and more, the U.S. Government Accountability Office says.

Of course the Trump admin is abandoning consumer safety oversight programs right and left. Student loans are such a snarled and exploitative mess that affect so many people, this is going to be a nightmare.
