Here are some big ticket examples. Biden says “If I am elected I will do the following: Create millions of good, union jobs rebuilding America’s crumbling infrastructure from roads and bridges to green spaces and water systems to electricity grids and universal broadband… Create 1 million new jobs in the American auto industry, domestic auto supply chains, and auto infrastructure, from parts ...

*Restoring Our Troubled Academy* The state of our universities is disturbing. Problems abound: high costs, crippling student debt, poor educational outcomes, and, most alarming of all, the radicalism that underlies many of the recent riots and the continuing push for socialism. All of these problems share a fundamental cause—lack of leadership by those who are legal owners of universities or their representatives, the boards of trustees. No matter what other solutions are employed, one action essential for academic reform is to return board governance to its former place atop a ...

Yemen: A Torrent of Suffering in a Time of Siege
Bruce K. Gagnon, Organizing Notes - 16 hours ago
By Kathy Kelly *“When evil-doing comes like falling rain, nobody calls out “stop!” When crimes begin to pile up they become invisible. When sufferings become unendurable, the cries are no longer heard. The cries, too, fall like rain in summer.” -- Bertolt Brecht* In war-torn Yemen, the crimes pile up. Children who bear no responsibility for governance or warfare endure the punishment. In 2018, UNICEF said the war made Yemen a living hell for children.

"An Insufficiency Of Data..."

"Experience is a poor guide to man, and is seldom followed. A man really learns little by it, for it is narrowly limited in range. What does a faithful husband know of women, or a faithful wife of men? The generalizations of such persons are always inaccurate. What really teaches man is not experiences, but observation. It is observation that enables him to make use of the vastly greater experience of other men, of men taken in the mass. He learns by noting what happens to them. Confined to what happens to himself, he labors eternally under an insufficiency of data." - H.L. Mencken ...

*Mark Davidson and Kevin Ward* *economy, Americas* [image: Reuters] With many budgets in tatters, the prospect of growing numbers of city bankruptcies looms. U.S. cities are fast running out of cash. The pandemic will reduce local government revenues by an estimated US$11.6 billion in 2020. With COVID-19 requiring residents to stay home and stores to shutter, the bulk of this reduction comes from a slump in local sales taxes. Declines will continue into 2021. State revenues are heading in the same direction, so many U.S. cities will need to rely on help from the federal govern...
