truancy helps weed out the kids that don't want to be there and the parents who don't care. they do the most harm to students that actually want to learn something.

so the deterrent to jailing them later in their lives because they didn't get an education (the stats ... the stats) is to jail them now? let them earn jail with violent crimes later on, not on these petty bullshyt to get people in the system.

you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink.

you have to try something, if you told me I could go to school or jail, what mindful person would choose jail? it's ridiculous to fault this because any sane person would choose schoool but we have some real works of art, people like @storyteller @CheckMate who just want to skip school and ask for free stuff later because they made poor life decisions.

She's black and has the Obama endorsement. But she really hasn't done anything to deserve that type of crowd.

Good on her though.

Top 3 gonna be Harris, Warren, Sanders.

Biden will pull white people and most likely old black people.

Breh, being a quarter of Black Jamaican doesn't make you Black. Hell, her father's side owned slaves in Jamaica.

Shes the chosen one. It doesnt matter. Fact is most dems dont want organic candidates. They want to be fed

Unfortunately a lot of the Democratic voters want them to tell them how to think just like Republican voters. smdh

All this would do is turn off independent voters and they make a significant number of voters.

Sounds like the truancy office should have been working with the Public Services office (or whatever they're called) to get these parents help. As opposed to trying to arrest everyone. Sounds like Harris made an assumption about truant children and their parents and found out it was wrong.

It’s going to be interesting to watch some people (including some of y’all) work over time to tear this black woman down :ehh:

Fam, she protected police from misconduct investigations, was against prop 47(proposition to release prisoners or reduce sentences), upheld wrongful convictions secured through official misconduct including evidence tempering, fought for the death penalty, refused to support marijuana legalization, opposed a bill requiring her office to investigate police shootings, opposed body cameras etc.

Her record is just :scust:

If you care about criminal justice reform or support Black Lives matter movement, I don't see how anyone can enthusiastically support her.....especially in the primaries.

I wish the idiots in TRL would focus on issues and not her Indian ancestry or her interracial marriage.

First I appreciate the call out. Had a similar convo with @King Kreole

There are many triggers in the economy that happens when you over print money to pay for domestic goods . Long term you would devalue your currency and the fact that we are ind eat to countries like China means we would need to settle that debt at some point, in the mean time if inflation hits and currency devalued, we would need to tax citizens more in order to pay interest payments on the debt. The sucking out money from the citizens and economy to try to settle foreign holders of debt would be disastrous and cause long term economic recessions / depression . MMT believes money has no value and we can continue printing it because economically the goods and services haven't changed . .its a farce


This is why I don't believe in the socialist movie of spending money we don't have and expecting nothing to happen downstream
The crux of our debate is over the definition of "over printing money". MMT absolutely accounts for the fact that continually injected currency into the economy can to inflation/devaluation of currency. In fact, that's one of the two pillars of concern that MMT focuses on, next to unemployment. The point of MMT is that the government doesn't need to tax to spend money, because tax revenues aren't what funds spending. Most people think the government, a currency issuer, must obey by the same financial physics as private citizens, who are currency users. It's a nonsense theory put forth by conservative thinkers who want to shrink the role of the state. So no, America doesn't need to tax citizens more in order to pay interest payments on the debt, because government spending doesn't come from tax revenues. The government actually accounts for spends before it accounts for tax revenue. Taxes are used to control and regulate the amount of money in the economy, not pay for expenditures. It's patently absurd to claim "MMT believes money has no value and we can continue printing it because economically the goods and services haven't changed." I have no idea where you even got that idea from. MMT says there's no actual hard limit that government can run into when it comes to spending, the limits should contextual to the state of the economy. Fear of the debt ceiling or government deficits is almost completely unfounded.

The key question is what is the current state of the economy? If inflation is high, MMT advocates increasing taxes and slowing government spending to cool the economy down. If unemployment is high, MMT advocates increasing government spending and lessening taxes to heat it up. A key point is that the government debt levels is not a primary metric to worry about, because the government can never run out of currency it creates out of thin air. The government by definition cannot go broke, and it can always afford any spending it chooses to undertake. There is no such thing as "spending money we don't have" because the government literally creates money.

I don't believe any believers of MMT believe printing money leads to anything, despite your initial statement your final statement is my issues in a nutshell. Of course you can print money , but there are dire consequences that MMT proponents don't believe in or at least don't take serious.

It's akin to flat earthers saying something everyone logical scientist knows is factual

All while fukking someone's husband who was 60 while she was 29 . And after getting jobs because of her relationship having the audacity that if he so muched as jaywalked she should indict him .

Instead of cronyism they are calling anyone asking about this as mysgonistic

National debt and deficit don't cause any inherent problems, and inflation and unemployment are emphasized by MMT proponents, so what are the dire consequences that they don't believe in?
