113 tests in 12 years? Goddamn I graduated in 2007 in New Jersey and only remember maybe 1 a year and at least at that time most of them had no bearing on our education like bumping us from clsses (I think they were more of an evaluation of our school) Most if them at least in my school district were simply to suggest areas to focus on. Testing really must have ramped up and ran wild since graduating because I can't imagine about 10 standardized tests a year(to meet that average of 113 in k-12) That is ludicrous
Is there any system that is not corrupted to the core? The country is falling apart... this is so sad. The richest country in the world can't even provide what most other countries consider a constitutional right.
I always wonder one thing - of all the 50+ minority groups in China, why the Uighurs? What would be the incentive and benefit for suppressing a harmless group of people? Why not suppressing all minority groups?
"why would someone put an assisted living facility next to an alligator pond?" because in florida any body of water bigger than a pothole has a gator in it. there is no such thing as a non-alligator pond
Ya should talk about your friends and puppets the Governor of NY. Let’s see how he handle retirement homes. Lastly Don’t California My Ohio. You all people doing your best to detract from your friends. That’s an un-fuckable offense. No matter how bad they is never slam the Democrats right ?
in a few months or no time people we definitely be kicking themselves regret for missing the opportunity to buy or invest in cryptocurrency trading with expert Mrs Jane is more better
John, having name dropped Bulgaria this episode, maybe look into the mob face that runs the country and the overall shit show that is going further down the drain with each year. At the very least there will be many many meme worthy moments to be had for sure in between revealing how a country can be abused and sold off piece by piece.
They should all be closed down. Purpose is to steal from public education. When the director (NYC) of charter schools is making 6 figures salary and a Hedge fund manager owns the school, it is obvious its a business not to educate our countries children. They want to bankrupt public schools. IF you want alternative school there are private schools. Not funded by our tax $.
People talk about debt like its a moonrock or something from outer space. Theres a famous business self help book called Other people's money. In other words, debt. Thats how yiu grow a business. America is nothing if not business. So people need to get a grip. They need to be concerned with their personal debt situation. Thats debt that is using future dollars. The U S can always light up the creditors.
I was called for jury duty when I was 7 months pregnant with twins(I had been called previously too); I sent in the form with my number. A few weeks later a nervous sounding man called and said I wasn’t excluded and needed to arrive, etc. After hearing him nagging me for 10 minutes I finally told him fine, but that I needed a bathroom break every 10 minutes and a bucket because I was still fucking vomiting. Click... I haven’t been called since. The twins are 17 now..
Now I am not a expert on food processing logistics and pricing. But for a 1.5$ 5$ a hog 20$ a cow all these employees could be provided with fair and equitable healthcare/ insurance policy. A increase in pay and better working conditions with a little to spare.
Damn was hoping the first comment would be Oliver pinning a comment from tucker telling him to fkoff with a nice lil reply section of them going in a yank circle of fk u's and yo mamas between them...
Well maybe that’s why 80 % of Puerto Rican’s voted for republicans so I’m kinda glad the republicans are sticking it to them bunch of stupid idiots...same with the Cuban Americans... the poorest states in America is 80 % Republican so how is that working for them ???
With Medicare guidelines in LA I qualified for a hysterectomy in San Bernardino I received a cleaning instead that’s why I G went why in and and need to be handled by the people who need it and use it only
It was never isolated so they are just fabricating a pandemic. People getting sick and dying is nothing new. Wake up idiots. Also masks don't do anything. Viruses are microscopic. They go right through any mask.
Could be nice to have a CSR of home care in just business because healthcare was invented such a long time ago they just never thought that society would change in their medical field such as yoga energies door meditation introduced things need to change they say oh we have brutal people we want brittle plates that’s just saying were brittle that’s not really saying we have six senses someone can’t walk does that mean that their 🦵 Get no activity I mean they would’ve went obsessive on the tusushi lately
Can confirm its crowded, i worked at one for 2 years and we’d stuff 2 old people in a Room like its a College dorm. And this is a Facility that is considered “Fancy” at $10k a month rent. Also the entire staff is underpaid and mistreated usually.
I like listening to John Oliver at 1.5x speed. Then he actually sounds like the little weasel he is. Billionaires bother you, but trillion dollar debts dont?
Stop being funny already and just say the points, you are not funny dude! Just cringe! Or hire some better writers!seriously! I was such big fan of the show at once, now I cant stand it!
The same BS the UK public was given before their empire's collapse. Stiff upper lip for the poor while the well-heeled walked off scot-free with your tax dollars in tax havens. I don't buy this import. Pay your bills or be servants to your lender. Britain is the bellwether.
Obama should have made a bigger topic. Trump took advantage of this . All his tax laws are supposed to shift the country's wealth to the upper class . Soon their will be 2 Classes . The rich and the rest of us
I'm a caregiver and had to quit because I couldn't take care of them all on my own while being underpaid. I received little training at all and am expected to do things I've never done before and am not qualified for. I make $13 an hour and my residents pay 10,000 a month.
Anyone in eldercare is sadly not surprised by any of this. I wish he had focused a little more on understaffing and how exploited, underpaid and neglected the workforce is as well.
The oppression in this country is real.... My family being low income is suffering from a great deal of oppression from the system in place that governs our people.... Laws are made against the poor to keep families of color oppressed and in some cases like ours it flows over to all of the poor not only those of color. As a family we feel the pain our country is suffering through as so much of our case relates. We are currently guilty until proven innocent. Being denied justice or safety because we aren't rich enough to afford a lawyer... By the way modest means... a program to help people retain a lawyer (and in this case we didnt even start any of the court proceedings) Can only lower the retainer to $1,500. (There is even a case we overheard the lawyer and judge discuss by name where a person suffering from mental illness has to defend herself in family court.) We have been battling against the loss of our children for the last 2 years.(they pulled a trump and spread misinformation and made a decade of false reports all unfounded and even brainwashed coached manipulated and mentally destroyed our children.) Recently we received a letter of recommendation from the therapist that states : To Whom it may concern, My name is ******** ********; I am a licensed marriage and family therapist at douglas CARES. I began working with the ***** and ******I family July 9th, 2020 for individual and family therapy due to diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder in many family members. During my time working with the family, they have made immense progress, they are beginning to stabilize however, visits with the kid’s grandparents cause behaviors and anxieties tend to escalate prior to and immediately following contact with their grandparents. There have been several behavioral concerns and stressors prior to and following visits with the children’s grandparents. The girls had been placed in relative foster care, with their maternal grandparents. This placement did not encourage a relationship with their mother and the girls were then moved into nonrelative care. While living with their grandparents the relationship between the girls and Douglas CARES has gone though many challenges. The grandparents would continuously get involved in their treatment and berate them into telling them about their sessions. The grandparents strongly discouraged any positive conversations regarding mom. For example, **** has reported that if she was to behave poorly in visits with her mother or Douglas CARES staff, she would be rewarded with bubble gum ice cream. When **** was ask how long this behavior had been going on with her grandparents, she reported “my whole life.” During **** and ****’s time in care, they have had an estranged relationship with their mother and stepfather; both have been working on reestablishing this relationship in therapy. Both girls are wishing to spend more time with their mother and stepfather at this point. Since the girls have been asking to visit and go back to live with their mother, they have been feeling as if their grandparents are treating them differently. **** has stated that she feels as if her grandparents are mad at her due to wishing to return home. When in sessions with Douglas CARES staff, if they attempted to identify strengths of their mothers or past positive memories, the girls would become agitated and not speak to therapist working with the girls the following visit. Due to these concerns, it is my recommendation that any visits between the **** and ****** family is conducted at the child welfare building. Weekly visits with the girl’s grandparents had become detrimental to the progress the girls are making in treatment. Visits with grandparents should be limited to once a month, supervised at DHS. Since starting visits with their grandparents, **** has begun to act out, including harming her sister, being defiant and having (bathroom) accidents both at night and during the day. I am concerned that these visits are causing a relapse of post trauma anxiety for the family. Thank you very much for your consideration in this matter. And the judge knowing all of this and more still is trying to force us to place our child in the care of people who have done so much to our children already. We as parents are absolutely mortified at the way everything has transposed. We have much more information please contact us by email: [email protected]
10:39 Actually it is being a slave to someone. In my opinion. Just tell that to the poor who take out loans from the sharks. Maybe he's to rich to know that.
