That is great news. When my son was young, one day a week of day-care ran me $300/month. 2006 dollars.

I’m also motivated by anti-religious beliefs, but it generally manifests as nothing stronger than saying, ‘Get the fuck off my property’ and slamming the door. I’ve mellowed as I’ve gotten older.

Quote:New Mexico became on Saturday the first U.S. state to offer free child care to all residents in a bid to boost its economy and lift education and child welfare levels ranked the worst in the country.

Under the program, families, regardless of income, can receive state vouchers to cover public and private child care fees. It culminates efforts New Mexico has made to expand access to free child care since the governor and state legislature created the Early Childhood Education and Care Department in 2019.

The launch comes as other Democratic-run states, cities and counties eye a step popular among working families. Connecticut recently passed a bill making child care free for those families earning under $100,000 per year and no more than 7% of income for those earning more. New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has proposed no-cost universal child care.

In US first, New Mexico launches free child care for all

In other election news (stuff that didn’t get as much coverage as the biggies

-Colorado voters approved a measure to increase taxes on wealthy families and use the money to provide free breakfasts and lunches to all primary school students, regardless of income.

-Maine voters approved prohibiting gun possession by people the courts have determined to be a threat.

-Maine voters also rejected a measure that would both require a photo ID to vote and make absentee voting virtually impossible.

Glimmers of hope.

You think it's fake?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
