@PreppyProf Me too--about how bad it is! Another money and power grab by the big government folks. The people pushing for it never talk about savings except when they talk regionalization; it ought to make you suspicious...

"There is more than one way to burn a book. Every group feels it has the duty to light the fuse. Each ripped a page or a paragraph from this book, then that, until the books were empty and the minds shut and the libraries closed forever." Ray Bradbury, edited afterword to F451.

@TroyXing @RayDalio Most certainly not--she had nothing to do with this commission.

@RayDalio Erin Stewart, is that politician

A number of you asked me to explain what the political environment was like that led my wife and I to pull out of public-private partnership to help disadvantaged high school kids in CT

MSNBC host and NYTimes editorial board member off by a factor of one million in basic division. Those who think taxing billionaires will solve our problems haven't done the math.

Jason Bartlett can't genuinely believe the Harp administration discriminated against him because of his race or sexuality. It's a terrible accusation to make insincerely, and Bartlett ought to be ashamed of himself. newhavenindependent.org/index.php/arch…
