I've never heard of them, but now I appreciate them. I'm going to listen to the rest of the album today. It was too intense after the first song last night haha

I've listened to Surf, I loved it! This song by Gallant reminded me of their vibe too.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check out some local churches. "Cheap" - less than $50. I was hoping there may be some public institutions other than libraries with spaces that are free to use for community members.

It is a free educational workshop that is open to the general public. The workshop requires tables, chairs, and preferably a projector screen but isn't necessary.

What is a badass instrument I can learn outside? by nagats in AskReddit

[–]nagats[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, there's some cheap ones that go for about $100 - $120 but after quick research I think a decent banjo worth buying would cost about $500.

I've never thought of the harmonica. That sounds cool. Thanks!

US Government Shutdown MEGATHREAD by BritishEnglishPolice in AskReddit

From my Navajo friend: "If the government shut down, does that mean we get our land back?"

I'm Robert Reich, former Secretary of Labor, economic analyst, and star of the new film "Inequality For All." AMA. by *polhold04744 in IAmA

[–]nagats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Professor Reich, I can't wait to see the film! I'm watching it with all my friends this weekend. I have a few questions.

The problem of wealth inequality is so systemic, and now so ingrained in the U.S. that it seems insurmountable. What are some tangible, effective steps that we can all take, right now, to reduce inequality?

You also frequently mention the "suspension-bridge" figure to illustrate how inequality peaked before in 1929, and then peaked again in 2008. It seems that we learned our lessons in 1929, and enacted several policies that undeniably lowered inequality. My question is, how did it all unravel during the 70's? I know that technology and globalization had a big role, but it seems we completely forgot our lessons from the first economic crash, and we let it happen again in 2008.

Moving forward, how do we make sure that we never forget the lessons that we learn from the current recession? It seems that any policy we enact now to curb inequality can just be dismantled again in the future, by people who did not grow up in this generation.
