@bern_identity $15/hour is not "exploiting children for cheap labor." 14-year-olds are voluntarily choosing to work. $15/hour is a very good wage for a teenager. In a time of a labor shortage, especially in low-end jobs, employers will hire who is available and willing to work.

Only one team in the Big Ten played Ohio State to a one-score game this season. There's no way that team should be as low as 11th in the country. #iufb

@BillPascrell Apparently, someone slept during the 1970s and has forgotten that price controls lead to supply shortages. Gasoline is one of the most competitive industries in the world. If there is any industry in which there is no "price gouging," that one is it.

In 36 seasons of following #iufb , there have been a lot of disappointing days. This is one of the most inexplicable. A team ranked 7th in the country is apparently not only not good enough for a NY6 bowl, but also not good enough for the B1G's second-place bowl?

10 cents/gallon x 15-gallon tank x one fill-up per week = $78 in savings over a year, and that’s just on gasoline. Multiply that times other goods whose movements are restricted via the Jones Act and its repeal could save a lot of families a lot of money in lower prices.

JPM says lifting the Jones Act would "only" save American drivers $0.10/gal on gas. The USA consumes almost 135 BILLION gallons of gas/year (EIA). If everyone saved 0.10/gal (not that easy, but still), that'd "only" save us $13.5B. Per year. Cmon, man.

Vlogger @Nerd4Cities previously praised Chicago as the best affordable big city. But in a new clip he rightly calls out Chicago for having the worst waterfront highway in North America. DuSable Lake Shore Drive is a nationally-known civic embarrassment.

Five years ago today, we became a family of four. Casey has overcome much in his short life. It’s been awesome to see him grow, mature and reach new milestones. He has a great passion for learning and for soccer. We’re so blessed he’s a part of our family.

@SweeneyABC This almost assuredly would not have happened on Brightline or another privately-run company that has to keep customers happy to stay in business. Privatize Amtrak and give RRs incentives to provide passenger service.

@iancmclaren And to fill the hole Pastrnak leaves on L2, they replace him with *checks notes* Taylor Hall. Obviously, this will hurt the third line a bit but this team is still really deep and has two solid scoring lines.

Every intervention in the market carries unintended consequences. The eviction moratorium has, predictably, shrunk the supply of available rental housing, which has raised rents. It also has incentivized landlords to cover themselves by requiring more money up front.

Funnyman @AndyRichter was shocked that his son was being asked to pay 6 months rent up front to lease a flat. He should be. But his anger over the issue is misplaced. @Jack_Elbaum with the story.

Aaron was given the armband as JV captain at the start of the year, earned varsity minutes in three games, was a beast on defense, JV “team leader” award at season’s end. I’m a proud poppa.

@frankmcd77 @WhitlockJason Indiana-Michigan was 92-83 last night. Iowa-Ohio State was 82-73 and featured a 29-point/10-rebound/15-assist triple-double from Caitlin Clark. Neither game was "slow" nor "boring." Both were really, really high-level basketball.

I got a note in my mailbox from a student today that read: "You made class so incredibly fun. You taught me so many important life skills. There are days I wish I could travel back to your class." The most satisfying feeling as an educator is knowing you made a difference.

@KaseyKlimes @sgodofsk Financial wealth often leads to better quality of life. The average middle class house in the U.S. is much larger than in Europe, most families have multiple cars (transportation freedom), access to abundant grocery items, parks, can afford entertainment, restaurants, et al.
