I feel like their fathers are probably equally (if not more) responsible, no? Where were their positive role models?

It has taken medical science 200 years to advance humans to the point where people are so healthy and living so long that they can deny that science and medicine is what got us here.

Rather than criminalizing homelessness, the much better policy would be to criminalize having three or four homes.

This. My daughter had 65% hearing loss and delayed speech. Within a day of getting ear tubes, she was babbling away and a mere week later the speech pathologist assessed her speech development as normal. Tubes also completely reversed her hearing loss and ended her excruciating ear infections.

100 men vs. 1 gorilla?

How about the working class against the oligarchy?

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%.

This is the real fight we need to be talking about.

Iโ€™m not suggesting I agree with the employer, I was just adding context for what I thought they might be up to. I support OP and anyone who chooses to mask at work or any other setting.

Profit motivation of social media companies often compels them to inject bias and create polarization, study finds A new study reveals how a social media platformโ€™s profit motivation compels it to adopt a user-targeting strategy that often injects bias and creates polarization.

I think the challenge here is that OP is a teacher so the employer may be trying to make the case that speaking clearly/having the teacherโ€™s mouth visible is a bona fide occupational requirement.
