1/ There is no way we should open the schools until and unless CDC guidelines are followed. Trump says the guidelines are too "impractical and expensive." If we don't stand up for our children, we're failing a basic test of our own humanity. #CDCguidelines

2/ Some say it's more dangerous for some kids to be at home, which is unfortunately true. That's why we need a Dept of Children & Youth: to deal with the various traumas of millions of kids. If we just say "Well, they can go to school," what happens to them the rest of the day?

Is there anything in your mind...anything at all...that is beyond the reach of government?

Personal relationships. Personal choices that harm no one else. Religion. Love. God

When you talk about a "Dept of Children & Youth," you are well past the point of government competence.

It’s not about that. It’s about coordinating and funding all the experts in childhood needs that are desperately needed in the lives of millions of chronically traumatized children. Our one Dept of Family Services is overwhelmed, undersupported, and inadequate to today’s needs.

We have gotten to the point where every facet of American life is politicized. So how's that working out for us? We should be looking to get the federal government to live within its means. Our $26t debt shows how well we have been doing with that. Adding anything is a mistake.

Collective abuse & chronic trauma among millions of American children IS a political issue and there is no amount of money too much for us to spend to make sure that our children are safe. Cut needless defence spending, corporate subsidies, tax cuts for the very richest instead.
