Expensive education in the US is like corruption in China. It is a part of the system, not an anomaly. Extravagant cost of US education is a tool whereby the rich maintain the monopoly of high-paying jobs for their offspring.

One fun thing about having a toddler is how relentlessly they point out all public services in eyesight at any given moment. Mail trucks! Fire engines! Playgrounds! Buses! Libraries! Bridges! Ambulances! And they're right! Public goods are amazing.

In Maine, we have no voter ID laws, we have same day registration, we have no-excuse absentee voting, we have mail-in voting, we have early voting, we have 24/7 drop boxes. And we have virtually no fraud. Expanding ballot access doesn't encourage fraud; it encourages VOTING.
