Re: The School Crisis
My husband and I both work. We consider ourselves chassidish but we're not affiliated with any particular sect. We speak English and Yiddish in our home. We don't have movies or a TV, we both have smartphones + wifi. We're pretty middle class.Sorry for speaking bluntly but either wise up & play the game like everyone else does or move out of BP September 20, 2016, 02:59:24 AM |

Re: FBI Raids Orthodox Homes and Businesses in Monsey and KJ
DH's statement - besides being a moronic thing to publicize - is pure BS. Were these families living with 6 children per bedroom sleeping on mattresses on the floor? Were they sharing a box of pasta for dinner every night? No, they weren't. They wanted their cake and to eat it too. Pure greed and/or entitlement.I can guarantee every one of these families started taking programs when they were 100% eligible. Once you're hooked to this free money faucet, it's very difficult to stop. Almost like substance addiction, people who were recently poor have a hard time parting with their survival mindset. If we can assign some medical diagnosis to this, maybe the feds would respect their rights. If a man can feel like a girl, a prince can feel like a pauper. 🌈 June 28, 2017, 11:14:28 AM |

Re: Messianism among Lubavitch
What do you think would have happened if a fringe group in Ponovez started proclaiming the R' Shach was moshiach? What do you think would happen if they had a civil war in the yeshiva? July 25, 2017, 10:45:45 AM |

Re: Switzerland Master Thread
The U.S. is better run in every way, including the use of measuring units that are suited to everyday life instead of suited to science labs. I been to over 50 countries -- traveled extensively due to work assignments all over the world. You got to be joking: "The U.S. is better run in every way" -- It's not! Just look at the public transportation system lags behind many Western Countries. Switzerland has magnificent public transportation that everybody uses, even the very wealthy. I just heard that New York finally has mobile phone coverage in the underground subway, while third world cities like Cairo have mobile coverage in their underground since 2002. Look at the incarnation rate per capita in the US for 2013, 693 per 100,000, in Switzerland, it was 84. in Switzerland, the health care system is better, see: https://www.forbes.com/sites/theapothecary/2011/04/29/why-switzerland-has-the-worlds-best-health-care-system/ Tuition fees for top universities in Switzerland are about $600 per semester. In Switzerland, one can get around by foot or bicycle, in the US, in most places being without a car, is like being in prison, and people waste hours each day sitting in traffic. In Switzerland, you have a better chance of your kids growing up without having to visit a rehab clinic or undertake some form of psychological care, you don't see homeless people, Swiss employers offer 4-7 weeks vacation each year, Swiss drivers license do not expire, Work to live mentality, not the other way around in the US. US tax code is 74,608 pages/ 4 million words. Switzerland has very low low-income taxes (See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxation_in_Switzerland) And Fahrenheit the units are so small, that it's not always relevant. The weather in the US is reported the low 70s or the high 60s. Can you differentiate how it feels when it's between 64 degrees and 67 degrees? Celsius has two numbers that are easy to remember (0,100) tied directly to things we can observe. Having a decimal scale of exactly 100, makes it easier to figure out the difference between 0 and 10 (1 tenth closer to boiling), or -5 and 0 (freezing cold to freezing point), while the Fahrenheit scale uses two arbitrary numbers (32 and 212), making it much harder to figure out how much colder than freezing is it, or even the halfway point between freezing and boiling. Plus, Celsius has the advantage of universal usage, pretty much every place on earth other than the US uses Celsius. Reporting temperature in Fahrenheit is just confusing as hell and makes absolutely no sense to the 7.2 billion people out of 7.5 billion out there. August 12, 2017, 04:22:20 PM |
