    oh oh! i like this...

    opera friday- (i never watch opera but whatever)- i still like this concept-

    they are having people work on five ish dollars an hour forty hours a week and see if they can deal (people that usually make more)- and the outcome is they cant.... but that is minimum wage there..... minimum wage is honestly a..... i dont even know what to call it.... its digusting i know that. you cant really support YOURSELF on that, non the less a family or if you have a medical issue and no insurance... sick...

    the details that i just grasped that are disgusting are about the LA area... most of its so rich but certain sections of LA with mostly latino populations havent had new schools or add ons in 30 years despite the ever growing population... often 30 seats in a high school class room with 50 students etc...

    yet the money that certain other, rich, white la schools get... that is every where i know just a big example...

    Time magazine has a great cover story about high school dropouts. It's worth checking out.

    I saw the subject line and thought it was about opera music being on the radio all the time. Not where I live.
