IB, take the internship. Your winning personality isn't going to earn you any fans so maybe you can do some decent work and get a full time offer that way.

That's not the GOP approach.
I think he might because Trump likes to shake things up. The rest of the GOP crowd (with the exception of Ben Carson) are still trying to win by playing the game straight by the data points that are available. They are reading all the old RNC manuals from the 1980s. They aren't trying new things which is why they are guaranteed to lose if they win the nomination.

Millennials are really angry about this unpaid internship crap. That and student loans (that they admit is all their own fault.) If you actually listen to them, I mean really listen to them, their concerns and what makes them vote is completely different than what Boomers or Gen-X thinks are important. Their priorities are completely different than ours. He who shall not be named (because I'm not interested in committing suicide) thinks this is all a joke, all "vetted", all perfectly legal, and not worthy of conversation or any of the myriad of lawsuits already filed. But it is. And there is an opportunity here for the GOP to pick up some votes if they add this to their campaign platform. We'll see if that happens.

How is this not a major story? Why isn't the MSM all over this?

Any links or pertinent info regarding this travesty would be greatly appreciated.

IB's mother should have gone to Planned Parenthood. Selling his body parts for research would be the only worthwhile thing to come from his existence.

You think my fetal tissue would have been worth anything? I tried to have them make me into Soylent Green but the government said... thanks but no thanks.

Our interns are beneficial to our practice and are highly sought after. They get paid $25 an hour plus $5K scholarship and they get to keep their laptop.

The real criminals are the universities who charge the student for a whole semester during their internships when they don't do a thing.

last Thursday I attended a school board meeting as a sign of support for lacrosse.

So they did their thing and we all clapped and the board gave us an ambiguous answer on whether they would charter us as a school sport so we would no longer be a club entity.

Then after that they went into the financials. At this point about 90% of the people got up and left but I decided to stick around. Man did I get an education.

during the financial crisis, Governor Strickland came up with a funding plan for schools in Ohio. If you're school was deemed "affluent" - which meant you are solvent, they took a % of funding designated to you from the state (and via the federal government thru the state) and allocated it to schools that were impoverished.

Now on the surface that might make sense, but in taking that money away from us, we weren't going to meet our expenditures which resulted in 8 teachers losing jobs, 4 aides, a secretary and on top of that we had a levy which jumped my property taxes $260 more a year.

Specifically my tax dollars for schools at the state level went to Lakota among others in the area. And fucking Lakota has a artificial turf field. We just got a turf field last year and student fees went up to cover it.

Only last year were we back to where we had a surplus, and Kasich, the current governor has returned some of the funding that was allocated for us, but not all - we're still giving 6% of our overall state funding to schools (and Lakota apparently is the recipient of it)

No one was talking about this during the 2010 levy.

And I mentioned student fees. Of a $33m budget (I think I can't remember), $846K is student fees - money that parents have to pay for classes. For example, I paid $91 this year for my daughter to take an honors History class. EVERY class has some kind of fee associated with it - from $10 to as much as $150.

Yet we have a surplus of $1.3m. So I'm paying property tax, funding those fucking mopes at Lakota with state tax dollars I should be getting AND paying on average $225 in student fees for my kids to take classes at the school

AND THEY HAVE A $1.3m SURPLUS THIS YEAR

I see me running for school board in the near future.
