In 1960 the US minimum wage was $1.00/hour and the price of a home averaged $11,000.00
Two kids could graduate high school and move into their own home the next day, and have the place paid off in less than a decade.
This is straight out of the GOP playbook.
Pass a law that you know will incite the Left. Ban abortion, ban gays, ban books; any civil rights violation will do.
Now the Left is forced to choose between fighting the laws in court, or contributing to political races.
Because the GOP runs the State, they can use taxpayer money to pay for the fight.

Apple TV show Careme is a French production with English language dubbing.
Napoleonic era intrigue where Talleyrand’s chef is used as an agent.
Fun show.
The NFL story makes a lot more sense than the alternative.
Trump et al would love to have a big Luigi movement to point to right now.
It would be a distraction from Epstein and a reason for much more domestic spying.
Are you trying to tell me that the people who make money off of paranoid rich people wouldn’t be pushing the idea of hordes of domestic terrorists coming for them?
Look what 9/11 did for Bush Jr, and then quadruple it.
You’ve been watching too many movies.
The NFL reports came out right after the shooting.
He shot himself in the chest because he wanted his brain studied.
No way could anyone put together a conspiracy like this that quickly.
Moreover, being targeted by a conspiracy would be a Godsend for private military contractors. Trump and the GOP would fall all over themselves allowing them special rights and privileges, and they’d be investigating everyone who’d ever complained about income inequality
Also, free range kids are likely to be reported by ‘concerned’ neighbors.
Pretty soon, ‘Stand By Me’ and ‘The Goonies’ are going to be classified as dangerous propaganda.
Rich parents can afford nannies who force the children to interact with them.
Poor parents use TVs and smart phones to amuse their kids.
Your wisdom is only overshadowed by your generosity.

It’s as if a fat guy who brought a bike for exercise and then threw it in the garage gave it to his pot dealer so the kid could deliver faster.
Okay, I know it’s not Scully and pretty sure it’s not Mulder, so who is it?
That’s why the slave traders wanted to enshrine their ideas.
They knew that there were Abolitionists at other universities; they wanted to make sure their reputations would remain unsullied.
Kind of like how oil companies today fund their own ‘climate research.’
Just remember that even fifty years ago the ‘scientific’ name for Down’s Syndrome was Mongoloid Idiot.
Thank you.
How about a link to the video?
Duh!
This is a favorite GOP tactic for decades. Back when the Supreme Court cared about the law, the Right would pass anti-abortion laws that they knew would be struck down. But since they were in power, they could use tax payer money to pay for the cases. Meanwhile, people on the Left had pick and choose where their money went, to a good candidate or to the legal funds?
