does that mean we shouldn't train people to be poets or unobtainium miners? besides, just recognizing "bus driver" as an occupation doesn't mean that it grants a living wage. how to define "gainful employment"?

Yes, even idiots can send letters to the NYT.

1) Don't blame the President for laws written by and enacted by Congress. President Obama is the chief executive, not a legislator.

2) Forcing everyone to get health care insurance was how Congress signed away your rights. Don't bitch to the NY Times, call your congressman.

3) Insurance companies used the confusion over healthcare as cover for dropping plans that were less profitable, and creating new plans that are more profitable. Don't blame Congress or the President for your insurance company's greed.

Poor people are stupid, proud of their lack of knowledge, and threaten the very existence of everyone else.

flapper chicks, woot!

not just tech companies. a former employer provides in-home healthcare service, and imports women from the Phillipines as nurses. They're not paid well, they work long hours doing grueling work, then are cut free once their H1B expires. Far better to pay a living wage and treat employees with respect, but I'm not the boss.

wasn't this addressed in February?

this attitude will get you killed in space.

There will be one state, or three, which will allow the sales of Tesla products. These states will reap the tax benefits. And I laugh heartedly at the Governor of Michigan, with broke-ass Detroit, turning away from what could be a spigot full of tax income.

there's already too many people for the planet to support. Leading-edge companies should be paying bonuses to employees for NOT having kids.

that is all
