Kindness is often cheaper (thus "fiscally responsible") than the punitive approaches we generally try:
“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
It costs a lot less to house people.

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me
In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

American Democracy Might Not Survive a War With Iran
The United States is well down the road to dictatorship. Imagine what Trump would do with a state of war.

Two critical points:
1) Trump campaigned on ending endless wars: that was yet another lie.
2) If our brave troops are going to go to war Congress has a constitutional and moral responsibility to vote to send them.

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:
A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

Communities aren’t staying silent about ICE…
18-year-old Massachusetts high school student Marcelo Gomes was taken by ICE on his way to volleyball practice Saturday morning. No word on where he’s being held.
Marcelo missed graduation today, so Milford HS graduates marched to rally in solidarity.

Once viewed as the path out of the pandemic, mRNA vaccines are now being vilified by fringe figures and conspiracy theorists. The attack on this important platform could render the US far more vulnerable in the next pandemic and trailing China in the field of scientific advances.

Alarming new study in JAMA modeling measles in the US:
If we stay at CURRENT vaccination rates, measles will become endemic again over roughly 20 years.
If rates drop by even 10 percent (and they're sliding), there would be 11 MILLION cases over the next 25 years. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...
