There's been so much talk (crap?) lately about how vaccines are
bad for you,
but now we have things like Measles and Polio coming back.
On the news tonight they mentioned one small district that
had checked the schools to make sure the kids all had the required
vaccine shots, and they ended up telling over 1600 kids to go home
and not come back until their shots were up to date.

Water generators are the best, but few areas have a good spot to
set that up. Not too long ago they were talking about a water
genertor plant (Hydro Electricity?) in Ontario that has been in
service so long that they have to convert the 25 cycle power to
60 cycle. We got rid of 25 cycle power in the mid 1950's.

A lot of countries built huge numbers of wind turbines and are now
just waiting for them to wear out so they can get rid of them.
One area mentioned installing enough to supply 25% of their power

There is new technology that is so efficient that it can use waste from old nuclear power plants to make electricity, but those are a lot more expensive to build. Maybe that's what you're referring to.
But you still end up with waste that is dangerous for several hundred years rather than 25,000 years, but both numbers are a long term

effect of slowing the economy, I'm amazed that people can still

I heard on the news that there were thousands of protestors out today
all across the USA (for the second time) over things that Trump is
doing. That's not all about tariffs either. Things about immigration
and mass firings of gov't workers and new LGBT(etc.) policies..
They mentioned we also have a huge number of highly skilled people
moving to Canada from the USA to get away from his changes.

Yes, more of the 50501 protest. Yesterday, in particular, was a big day>because it was the anniversary of the beginning of the American Revolution,

I think in most cases the gov't isn't looking for Only people
with specific skills. If they look to be employable and will
pay their own way I think most people would get in, at least
temporarily, and after that other factors would probably influence
whether they can stay permanently or not. What they try to avoid
is too many unskilled people wanting to move here, although a lot
of them still seem to get in..
'Refugees' are another story but
there is talk of lowering the numbers of those allowed in too.

I got the impression at the time that as a COBOL developer I might not be as>"desireable" as other skilled folks. :D

Was that a skill or a mistake? B)
Just kidding.. I've never used that so shouldn't really comment.
I was more following the comment you made..

I'm not sure Americans quite qualify as Refugees, although possibly some

I would suppose getting such a letter could qualify you, especially if you
Yes, that would freak you out.. I'm not sure if there was more than one
case like that but I heard something similar a couple of weeks ago,
possibly the same person although I vaguely think it was a woman that
was born in the USA who was being deported..
> > case like that but I heard something similar a couple of weeks ago,Yes, that would freak you out.. I'm not sure if there was more than one
Yes, there was one of those also. She is an immigration attorney, too. ;)

That would make her mad.. But Trump would probably like that one.
I doubt he likes Lawyers much more than he does Judges.
They just get in the way of the things he wants to do.. B)

Unless they are toadying to him, I suspect you are right. ;)
I suppose you need lawyers to help you try to beat the law too once
you get caught. I understand there are now hundreds of court cases
against some of the things he is doing so he may have to have several
lawyers in court full time for him since I doubt they can force the
President to come to court for his own cases..
To quote CBS News, since he took office over 100 days ago there have
been more than 300 lawsuits filed against him challenging just about everything he is doing.. More than 100 in Illinois alone against
him 'and his administration'..
By the sounds of things, most Presidents get sued by various people
and States over things they are doing, but I suspect Trump is setting
all time records for the number of them.. B)

Most of those in these cases would be government paid for lawyers, too.

He has set records. Yaysayers point out that it is proof that "they" are>"out to get him," while naysayers point out that he wouldn't be in trouble
The yaysayers may be right in a few individual cases but, overall, I think>the naysayers are 100% correct in their view of the matter. ;)
