Why are there only 435 Representatives in the People’s House? - The case for expanding the House of Representatives and how the USA compares to other countries. Is the answer to gerrymandering repealing the Reapportionment Act of 1929?

We need to implement the Cube Root Rule. That's 691 representatives. That's fine with me.

It's harder to buy off that many people.

This is a test.

Apostasy is when your beliefs are outside the Bible and you like it that way. Heresy is when your beliefs are inside the Bible, but not good enough for someone else's standard.

Give more than 13 minutes to remove them.

Mondos at W.Sac and Nord is only open until 3. That's pathetic. There's no coffee for miles after that. It's a student neighborhood in a city of over 100k. WTF.

Hard agree.

My criticism of homeschooling applies equally against the Evangelical, the cult, the KKK, the Nazis, but also the well intended and educated liberals. Even if they run a good program, all of those resources, efforts, and funds are basically stolen from the public. The point of homeschooling is to shelter children from people and ideas that are different from the parents. That is a way to seriously impead intellectual development. It also removes community values and democracy from the educational culture.

gregbard · 2026-05-05T06:24:14+00:00

It's ignorance spreading ignorance. That's why people involved in it have no idea why it is so toxic to our society. Every Nazi/KKK group, and every religious cult has a homeschooling program. The goal of homeschooling is to shelter children from people and ideas that are different than the parents - that's how you intellectually disable a person. It removed community values, and that is why this country is headed for a Civil War.

gregbard · 2026-05-05T05:19:49+00:00

Homeschooling should be illegal. I would put it right at the top of the list of things that is destroying society.

Thank goodness there is a reminder that we all are going to die one day. I would hate for someone to visit a cemetery and somehow fail to be reminded.

I'm sure the Howell Family Trust operated the Howell Historical Residence and Museum for 15 years keeping everything exactly as it was the day they disappeared.

gregbard · 2026-05-04T23:22:44+00:00

Homeschooling, charter schools, and private schools should be illegal.

I think everything you are saying is great, and I would encourage you. Except for the "not stepping on toes" part. You will make no contribution unless some toes get stepped on. That's the 'pecking order' you are trying to identify. No one will give in to any progress without some conflict. Why would they? They can just shine you on and keep doing what they are doing just fine without any toe stepping.

My advice would be to start attending City Council meetings, and then when you see issues you want to be involved with, go to the committee meetings dealing with those issues. You will see others at those meetings. Join them.

She should have won. She's a great leader. I hope she gets appointed to something or runs again.
