Apr 23 semi-crepuscular commented on Should the Smoking Age Be Raised to 21?.

why do so many people want to extend childhood into the 20s? At what point should humans be able to make decisions for themselves? We advance as a society, and yet the transition to adulthood occurs later and later? I'm looking at you, too, helicopter parents. I don't get it.

How much money have crooked administrators stolen from SPS? So we should continue to give them more money? Can they stop hiring crooks and cronies first?

@10, the Stranger employs Mudede because he increases traffic to the site. he posts inflammatory articles, which is all he does if you'll notice, not because they are right or interesting, but because they increase traffic. he's a troll, really, but a necessary one for a website such as this.

This article seems like an easy summary of some of the things that state govt does now that it did not before. yes, more things, and things got more expensive as well.
I'm all for less expensive state-funded public education, but something has to give, somewhere. I'm only trying to point out that the general fund is limited, and we can't have everything we want.

how much more is the govt doing since the 70s and 80s? are there more programs, and more expensive programs, that the state govt takes care of now than it did then? I'd suggest that there certainly is. And with all of those additional programs, there is also lots of additional waste in the system. So, if you want better and lower cost higher education, then what are you willing to give up for it?

Jan 15 semi-crepuscular commented on Seattle Bag Ban Pronounced "Popular and Successful".

typical. measuring compliance instead of success, because success was never defined.
I'm thankful that I can get out of the city every once and a while, and when I do I always go grocery shopping so I can stock up on free plastic garbage bags.
