57 young men did nothing to try and stop a young drugged woman from being raped None of them thought it would be the right thing to do I have not seen any evidence that even just one young man tried

When we can break the mindset that everyone has to have “a job” and instead have government provide a basic living to all then the fear expressed by these kids will end Automation can be liberating but it will also require incredibly high taxes on the billionaires

As disturbing as the young men that drugged and raped a young woman is the many other young men that knew about the rape and did nothing to stop it And apparently this wasn't reported to the police - why? Which officials at Cornell chose to keep this "in house"?

Buying chicken feed at Tractor Supply, a man complained about the high prices. I just suggested that Trump was to blame and did that launch him into a tirade about Trump! The undercurrent against Trump isn’t a myth - we all need to encourage folks to talk about
