—-The Harvard Graduate Students Union (HGSU) has called for more assistance and pay increases for graduate students. The organization proposes that the $40,000 per year workers receive should be increased to $60,000, saying this would alleviate the need for the help of government programs intended for the poor.Graduate student workers have organized strikes twice over the past two years due to pay disputes.
Furthermore, approximately 30% of the relevant staff come from foreign countries and do not qualify for assistance programs.——
I have given you a land for which you did not labor, and cities which you did not build, and you dwell in them; you eat of the vineyards and olive groves which you did not plant
Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD.

There was a time during my time as a young man the Republicans were the Party of Abraham Lincoln and the Lyceum Address.
We knew the only threat to our Constitutional republic was from within, when those who hadn’t the slightest clue what the Lyceum Address was about could be stirred up by a demagogue to envy the good and the righteous who had built estates great or small and rail against the poor on food stamps, or the pitiful penniless refuge mother at the border, who does not qualify for any aid at all except a cage.
I suppose that the institution that claims both Ted Cruz and Barack Obama ought to pay their graduate assistants enough they don’t qualify for food stamps.
The barbarians who populate the Fox News Republican Party are outside the gate and look hungry.
