New generation of young farmers increasingly college educated, but indebted This is priceless, and emblematic of the social pathology that characterizes higher education today, as well as the media that write approvingly of such fail-to-launch adults. Last but not least, it also exemplifies many of the kids who are apparently not bright enough to realize…
The Minimum Wage….Wow, What A Stupid Idea!
I rant and rave constantly about the minimum wage, which, as many people with an ounce of common sense have pointed out, is $0.00/hour.
