Purdue joins Ohio State, IU, dozens of others, ditches in-person classes: https://www.jconline.com/story/news/2020/03/10/coronavirus-purdue-not-ready-follow-ohio-states-lead-classes-still/5009324002/ I assume that 3/16-5/2 cancellation date includes athletic events? And will currently enrolled students at these fine institutions who are being forced to now take the remainder of their course "online" received some sort of partial refund on their spring tuition? After all isn't one of the promises of "online education" vs. "in-person education" is that the former is cheaper?

New Donald Trump thread

FTA: So Mr. Trump effectively wants to borrow money for "free". Nice. And anyway the Federal Reserve is an unconstitutional creation that should be abolished in the first place: https://www.aier.org/article/its-a-snap-to-abolish-the-fed/ -
Obama's former top economist says Congress should immediately send $1,000 to every American adult to stimulate coronavirus-stricken economy: https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/obama-economist-congress-send-check-money-adults-coronavirus-economy-stimulus-2020-3-1028981543 Why yes, just throw more "free money" at people to solve a problem. And I'm sure it won't hurt Mr. Trump's reelection chances at all. And I never did cash that check from Dubya back in 2008. May still have it in a drawer somewhere....................

https://news4sanantonio.com/news/nation-world/nbc-10-i-team-cop-retires-after-22-years-on-sick-leave What a huge waste, all funded by local taxpayers. And this is one of those prime examples of how businesses are more efficient than governments. Year one of a sick leave that it’s never going to end a business would have worked out a way to pay this guy off to leave or let him retire early to at least lower their payouts. Businesses want to be generous, but they are not endless founds of entitlement cash. The problem with unions, especially public sector unions like this cop was with, is that they teach their members to think of everything like an entitlement. I bet he spent those 22 years telling himself that it was his <insert deity here> given right to that paycheck. The police force should care for its members that were hurt on the job, but a staph infection is not an injury. Maybe he can’t walk his beat anymore, but his brain is still good (if he ever had one) so he could have gotten a new job doing something else where he didn’t need to walk a beat.

School Choice is Good For America; round 3

WL teachers: Share school referendum money with charters? Outrageous, legislators: https://www.jconline.com/story/news/opinion/letters/2020/03/09/wl-teachers-share-school-referendum-money-charters-outrageous-legislators/5007114002/ Amusing how those who want to just perpetuate the status quo get all up in arms when real, valid alternatives come to exist. If the co-presidents of the West Lafayette Education Association really cared about "Hoosier students deserving a premier education" they would realize that one size does not fit all, and charter schools exists so that parents like themselves can choose. -
