Anyway, the thing that’s actually amazing is how shameless all of these people are. The Nebraska GOP has such a low opinion of their constituents that they aren’t worried at all about how openly oligarchic this is.
I care a lot about public education. I’m an educator and know how crucial a robust public education is for a democracy.

Qasim Rashid, Esq.Here's some New Years perspective to start your 2023.
Barbara Walters, Anne Frank, & Martin Luther King, Jr. were all born in 1929. Yet while we were just with Ms. Walters days ago, those two icons are portrayed as ancient history.

The moon belongs to everyone, so says the 1927 hit musical composition, “The Best Things In Life Are Free.” We agree!

tylerWarren Buffett opposes the proposed #Omaha #Nebraska #streetcar
'In a letter to the World-Herald, the 92-year-old billionaire noted that he rarely takes sides on local issues in his hometown, but decided to “make an exception on the streetcar issue.'
He's definitely worried about public costs, and not his investments:
Chevron ($30.30 billion)
General Motors ($1.68 billion)
Occidental Petroleum ($12.12 billion)
Buffet Automotive ($9 billion in revenue at ~80 locations)
