my God, this forum has devolved into the worst of the worst. It's always emotional and reactionary in here, but it seems that the rational and seasoned members have pulled back to make way for the kids.
I'm going to step back for the day too. It's just too much uninformed nonsense.
I am excited for a lot of you guys, because it seems like this is your first time tracking a PNW winter storm. I remember my first time.
Some of it is a hypothetical scenario, of course, but they really are trying to give free health care to illegal immigrants in California. Given the large number of people coming in, that's eventually going to clog up our medical system and cause very long waiting time .
Regarding DEI however, think of it as affirmative action on steroids. Cliff Mass explains it well (and it's not some right-wing click bait article)
Equality means "all men are created equal" as the Declaration of Independence says. It means treating people by their merits and qualifications or the content of their character, rather than trying to level the playing field, meet quotas, or give special benefits to disadvantaged groups.
Of course in real life, letting nature run its course there will be privileged groups and unequal outcomes because humans are not perfect and tend to judge others by their appearance rather than their character. But trying to force equal outcomes between groups just causes more trouble.
The article continues
So this student was failing out of college being a member of a disadvantaged group and being accepted simply to meet a quota, rather than by their qualifications.
Now think of them doing this for doctors, who don't have the skills to succeed and are hired just to meet quotas. The DEI industry already trying to do this.

Well we are going to end up a little above normal for the month, so that makes 13 consecutive months with a positive temp departure according to ACIS.
We will also finish roughly 1" below normal in the precip department as well.
