>idiotic “reverse discrimination” claims

The Nevada supreme court ruled that their state-constitution version of the ERA required the state to fund abortion. A clearly erroneous decision in my view. That is the risk with new amendments, they may be used by activist judges to enforce their agenda. I support the ERA conditional on it’s literal interpretation.

This is WRONG. Whenever states have reduced funding for higher education colleges INCREASED tuition, and vice versa. Cutting of funding is responsible for almost 100% of tuition rises.

But paying the much, much higher military budget with taxes is fine? I would rather see my money go towards educating our children than the military-industrial complex (=murder industry).

What a stupid statement. Copying information is a natural right, while so called “copyright” is not. Copyright is an artificial concept upheld only through state violence. If you support copyright, you support aggression against peaceful individuals.
