As a Catholic, I am disturbed that the letter starts with how this bill will affect immigrants’ contribution to the economy, next, the mass attendance…and last, the effects on the vulnerable and poor. The foremost focus should be on the dignity of all human life regardless of economic contribution.

I like this, but it doesn’t deal with the fact that schools are generally not safe for children these days because of gun violence, bullying, racism, etc. I would want my child to have a phone for those instances. I was a junior in high school when Columbine happened and things are much worse today.

Please, sir. With all due respect, retire and allow the younger generation to have a fighting chance. Stop gatekeeping the American Dream (or what’s left of it) from the younger generations.

Any other Ghanaians here? Please, tell me where I can find the most unbiased news coverage of the upcoming Ghana elections? English or Akan Twi language is fine (though I prefer English).

I also think this is a sign of people buying what they can now to head off the price increases due to the chaos we’re expecting next year

I worry that the Democratic Party can no longer pretend to be the populist party. I’ve voted Dem since I’ve started voting but after this election, I will lean independent from now on. I wish there was an actual progressive populist party that I could vote for

Is Deli Meat Bad For You? The Case Against Cold Cuts β€” New York Magazine They’re consistent, convenient, and tasty. And at a time of food recalls and outbreaks, they’re one of the riskiest things you could possibly eat.

Save your coins and colons! Don’t buy deli meat that’s been processed by one of the big 4 meat processors. How can we rest the control of our food from big corporations back to local farms and suppliers? apple.news/Ag98adKnaS_a...
