Monsters
Jazz Shaw:
After all, what we're talking about here is political correctness being taken to monstrous, Frankenstein's Monster level proportions. One study after another has shown that in the vast majority of cases, children who express any sort of gender confusion so early in life tend to "age out of it" by their late teens if given the opportunity. And where they get such ideas in their heads is also a valid subject of inquiry. Too much of this "rapid onset gender dysphoria" is doubtless arising from peer pressure, social media or, as seems to be the case here, their own families.
Math is hard!
According to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget,
There is not enough annual income available among higher earners to finance the full cost of Medicare for All. On a static basis, even increasing the top two income tax rates (applying to individuals making over $204,000 per year and couples making over $408,000 per year) to 100 percent would not raise $30 trillion over a decade. In reality, a tax increase that large would actually lose revenue because it would institute marginal tax rates above 100 percent when other taxes are incorporated — effectively requiring people to pay rather than be paid to work, earn business income, or sell capital assets.I'm guessing that the requirements for a grievance studies degree don't include mathematics.
