I had truly excellent English teachers in high school.  And I didn't take AP. But DaN was part of the curriculum.  I need to re-read it.

Ms. Fish, Mrs. Troutman, Mr. Smith (later a baseball coach), and Mrs. Glover.

Highland Park?

It really sucks for those kids. Their drunk mom and dipshit right-winger father have really set them up for hardship and trauma.

The wife says the reports of his death are not true.

The only potatoes she cares about are the ones that make vodka.

True.  I bet her new suitors are amazed at how healthy she is. “American woman has all teeth and belly not too distended.. Only three childs…..can have 6 or 7 more.”

Looks like he enlisted before he got drafted.

 

My read of it too.  I thought he said that he signed up to take advantage of the enlistment bonus and fast track to his whole family getting citizenship.  He listened to the recruiter's promises and fell hook line and sinker.

What's really sad is that when a leopard does eat someone's face in Curtis and they survive, they won't have a hospital to help them recover.

I keep repeating something I read a long while back, the country changed when people started thinking of themselves as taxpayers rather than citizens. I finally got off my lazy ass and ran it down. I think the place I read it must have been quoting this piece in Harpers 2016.

 

Quote

There has been a fundamental shift in American consciousness. The Citizen has become the Taxpayer. In consequence of this shift, public assets have become public burdens. These personae, Citizen and Taxpayer, are both the creations of political rhetoric. (It now requires an unusual degree of historical awareness to know that both politics and rhetoric were once honorable things.) An important aspect of human circumstance is that we can create effective reality merely by consenting to the phantasms of the moment or of the decade. While the Citizen can entertain aspirations for the society as a whole and take pride in its achievements, the Taxpayer, as presently imagined, simply does not want to pay taxes. The societal consequences of this aversion — failing infrastructure, for example — are to be preferred to any inroad on his or her monetary fiefdom, however large or small.

It’s ridiculous what rightwing media has done to the people of our country.

You could post this observation on every thread on this board, and you'd be hammer-hitting-nail almost every time.

Trying to find an inflection point is mental masturbation.

Agree, but the reason for the aversion to paying taxes and also not understanding why taxes actually exist in our system is due to both lack of education and also a right wing propaganda machine the likes of which no one had ever seen.

I'm the choir on that one, Brother Biff. 

A confluence of factors led to this place where we are. Advertising. Slack education. Grad students. The press becoming overrun with college boys and girls who learned templates in school rather than learning how to find news and how not to treat every story the same.

It's a shit show.

MOBILE, Alabama July 28 (Reuters) - Under a broiling Alabama sky a frustrated Robby Robertson, a construction site superintendent, surveys an 84,000 square foot, mostly built recreation center close to the Gulf coast port city of Mobile.
The site is eerily quiet. Last month, the $20 million project was on track for on-time completion by November 1. Now Robertson says he is looking at a three-week delay after about half of his workers - scared by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement raid on a job site in Florida 230 miles (370 kilometers) away - have stayed away.

 

Was going to make money and finish ahead of schedule, now overbudget and delayed.

 

Any guesses how Mobile voted?

Only a naive citizen would not care about Welfare Queens taking all the tax money, but Patriot Taxpayers are very concerned about that issue.

Rec Center? Sounds like a socialist education center. We'll be pulling the funding for that anyway, so no big loss. 

Will turn it into the next concentration camp processing center.

Nebraska leading the nation in faces eating by leopards. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving dude.

Rick Wallace, 77, voted for Trump and supports his cost-cutting agenda, to a point.

“There are government programs that I’d like to see discontinued or cut back, especially those that don’t affect me,” said the retired Scottsbluff firefighter.“But the ones like the Postal Service, yes, we count on them.”
