Moms for Liberty are all about teaching our kids how to be toilet bowl cleaners. Nothing more.

Can you imagine being offended by a school trying to teach your child how to be kind and empathetic? What kind of world am I living in?

> Apparently, since the striking workers aren’t actually working, Temple is able to withhold benefits?
Typically, this only applies to benefits accrued through working. They're pulling all benefits, even tuition reimbursement which was already paid. IANAL, but several who've spoken on the issue say it's a legal difference.

Dollars to donuts says the donuts have nothing to do with Temple using grad students as chattel.

Fuck it, burn the place down. These folks just want fair pay and the university wants to put their health at risk.

You say it isn't a right until you're in a position where your insurance carrier drops you, regardless of your will to work.

I'm in Pittston - they've done a great job on our Main Street. We've lived here for 26 years and like it a lot...

Empathy works both ways. I’m guessing their kids are gonna be little douche bags.

Uh, no. No one deserves to die from lack of healthcare, regardless of whether or not they're working. It's inhumane. People like you are what's wrong with this country.

Do any of these phony religious Republicans remember when Jesus commanded them to turn the other cheek?

Temple grad students are making less than at any other school that is of equivalent rank (R1)- it’s absurd to expect people to live in Philly on 19k. And when they aren’t teaching classes they are doing other service to the university, aka research that the university gets credit for and gets published
Do you like advances in medical research? New drugs? They almost all start at these institutions in labs that employ these students

Healthcare is not a right. But I agree, it should not be used as a bargaining chip.
Wtf is with this push for everyone trying to get everything for free? We got enough lazy people unwilling to work and more free giveaways just encourages more of that. We should be talking about creating jobs to put people to work, not giving shit out for free to everyone, including those who don’t want to work.

I would venture that many Temple profs dont actually want the grad students doing scut work as the overhead to supervise said 'scut work' is more trouble than it's worth... which is why the striking grad students are out of line seeking a $32 per hour wage for part time work...
I support the strikers in theory, but the hourly rate demand is hyperbolic, and they need split the difference and settle out at $26.

I do too. There's a nest right above the Strip District in Pittsburgh. Love seeing them and the hawks circling.

Pretty good summary of conservative "christian" values. Forgetting everything Jesus ever said is the new christian way.
