No, ya see, indoctrination is when we tell kids to respect one another’s differences and teach them all about the world. An education is when we teach them “America rules” so they become good little worker drones without complaints. /s
“Highly educated adults – particularly those who have attended graduate school – are far more likely than those with less education to take predominantly liberal positions across a range of political values. And these differences have increased over the past two decades.
More than half of those with postgraduate experience (54%) have either consistently liberal political values (31%) or mostly liberal values (23%), based on an analysis of their opinions about the role and performance of government, social issues, the environment and other topics. Fewer than half as many postgrads – roughly 12% of the public in 2015– have either consistently conservative (10%) or mostly conservative (14%) values. About one-in-five (22%) express a mix of liberal and conservative opinions.”
If companies in Republican states didn’t attract tons of out of state workers, the companies would have to leave. The GOP has killed their supporters’ prospects of jobs when you increasingly need more education and training in today’s world.
And Republicans aren’t even satisfied with that. Their abortion bans and attacks on LGBT people are making workers reticent to hire onto companies that want them to work in red states.
This is the one, rare instance where I’ll agree with Pence to a point.
Democracy can be cruel to the minority, and creating an equitable society built on freedom and justice means that sometimes, you have to listen to 60% of the people demanding something and then say “no.” Leaders lead their people to where they should be, living by example and making persuasive arguments. Leaders also compromise and build consensus, and great leaders recognize that sometimes they don’t get to have it their way. We should choose leaders we trust to make those judgement calls.
The problem with that is that Pence is not anywhere on the list of people with the qualities or integrity to be trusted to make decisions. Pence is the sort of guy to order pizza for a group and get four white pizzas with olives because he likes olives and sauce is sinful.
Yeah, when it is pharmaceutical fentanyl. In ICU, we maintained people through horrific circumstances on fentanyl/versed drips.
But now, there are pressed pills and cocaine containing norfentanyl, carfentanyl, etc that those expecting illicit xanax or simple crack etc get dead from.
Not watching either, I’m sure there’s plenty of Christie slamming, but willing to bet that’s a reference to Trump. It’s got a bit of a double meaning as he has the majority of the party’s support, and the Republican mascot is the elephant.
