79. She's attending Dartmouth.

Whether she's paying for it out of pocket or with a scholarship, she has a bright future. And plenty of Mexicans work in horrible conditions for too little money.

The impact of one percenters is almost exclusively confined to stealing our money. They don't give two shits in a bucket about anybody's ethnicity or gender unless it can make them a nickel. Here's a little thought experiment for you, if you'll indulge me.

There are certain christian fundamentalists who seem to think that the first amendment precludes governmental interference in religion, but has nothing to say about religious interference in government. The proposition is absurdly unfair. Would you accept a power differential like that from someone; rules that require you to embrace the opinions of someone with the utmost importance with no input from you at all? I wouldn't.

That's the flaw in the thinking offered by almost every combatant in the culture wars. I can tell you how you're supposed to feel about an issue, but you can't say anything about how I feel about it. As a result, the standard of measure is based on the passion of an aggrieved party that is totally subjective. It's a dysfunctional relationship.

Like I said, culturally speaking these things work themselves out. But along the way there is a ton of money to be made by feeding off the umbrage of various groups from Christians to minorities. And I suspect that a large chunk of the culture wars and the animosity that goes along with them is the result of the 1% using the media to tell people what they want to hear for a price.
