The only issue with nuclear fission is that it’s good. And that’s why climate zealots oppose it. It delivers dense, reliable, near-zero-emission power 24/7 with a tiny land footprint. If we cut the bureaucratic red tape to lower costs and standardized reactor designs like China has, it would solve the climate change “issue” overnight. But climate alarmists only want solar and wind, which need endless overbuilding, backup power, and rolling blackouts to keep the electric grid going. Intermittency justifies rationing and state control over how much energy you are allowed to use. If you control energy, you control human behavior. And that's what the climate debate is about. It's not about science. It's not about energy. It's about power, control, and wealth redistribution.
Texas has spent years building a system to recognize and reward effective teachers.
@GinaHinojosaTX seems interested in moving in a different direction: across-the-board raises.
She also wants to send $1,500 checks to every Texas household, at a cost of $17 billion.
There's a lot to unpack here.
This is only an issue because of ridiculous conference expansion completely unmoored from geography.
In the Big 12, example, UCF is 1900 miles away from the University of Utah. This is idiotic. They have nothing in common, no ties, and no shared history, yet they’re in a conference together for some reason (the reason is money).
If you can’t get the team bus there in a day or less, you shouldn’t be in the same conference.
