In Finland, charging fees for school tuition is illegal, which means rich kids have to mix with normal kids.
That means rich families had to make sure the schools their children attended were good, which in turn prompted the wealthy to invest in public education.

Finland, take a bow.

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

Denmark's government aims to ban access to social media for children aged under 15 The move would give some parents β€” after a specific assessment β€” the right to let their children access social media from age 13.

Denmark’s government on Friday announced an agreement to ban access to social media for anyone under 15, ratcheting up pressure on Big Tech platforms as concerns grow that kids are getting too swept up in a digitized world of harmful content and commercial interests. https://to.pbs.org/3JSdg9T

For almost four decades, Nancy Pelosi has served the American people and worked to make our country better. No one was more skilled at bringing people together and getting legislation passed – and I will always be grateful for her support of the Affordable Care Act.

Tomorrow is a big day. The resistance has been nothing short of historic volunteers across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, New York, and California have shown up in record numbers. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. You’re making history and remember, tomorrow there will be more of us.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

America’s still terrified of powerful women in politics.

It’s pure misogyny baked into the system. Add race to the mix and it’s on a whole different level of hate that most won’t even admit. Time to get over that shit!

Let’s take a step forward on Tuesday.

On this day 225 years ago, John Adams moved into the still-not-quite-complete White House, becoming the first president to occupy it. His blessing was carved into the State Dining Room mantel in 1945: "May none but Honest and Wise Men ever rule under This Roof.”

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50.

California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections.

Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.
