Just a casual reminder that in 1869 it was decided to have 9 Supreme Court justices because there were 9 Circuit Courts.
Now there are 13 Circuit Courts. So what exactly are we waiting for?

Blocked Crossings Force Kids to Crawl Under Trains to Get to School — ProPublica
When crossings are blocked for hours, kids risk their lives to get to school by crawling through trains that could start at any moment. Ambulances and fire trucks can’t get through. The problem has existed for decades. But it’s getting worse.

By the way, a tax of up to 5% on the world’s multi-millionaires and billionaires could raise $1.7 trillion/year.
That would be enough to lift 2 billion people out of poverty and fund a global plan to end hunger.
We can't afford NOT to tax the rich.

Getting settled into @Spoutible -- slowly. Hoping to see, in the future: 1. Lists feature that lets me aggregate folks I follow into relevant topical communities (e.g. Ocean Issues, Climate Change, Politics, etc.). 2. Suggested Follows that reflect my interests. I assume this will take time.
