SHEPPARDDENICE

—Will Sheeline More on drones I saw it as a way

By WILL SHEELINE wsheeline@liherald.com

According to McLean, who has worked with drones professionally for the past 10 years, learning how to operate them has had a profound impact on his life and work, and it’s something he’s passionate to pass on to the next generation. “I’ve been flying drones for a decade now. It’s changed my business, it’s changed my life, and all I want to do is do that for young kids,” McLean said. “You know, they use drones in cinema, in search-andrescue, the LIRR and the military both use them. There is such a huge market for these things, and I want to give these kids a chance to get involved right now.” While flying drones can be both fun and educational, safety is always the para mount concern for McLean. Ten children began the course on Aug. 3, and the entire first class focused on operating drones respectfully and purposefully, and most important, learning what not to do — fly ing them higher than 400 feet, for exam ple, where they can pose a risk to helicop ters and other low-flying aircraft, and fly ing them directly over people. The classes will take place at the His torical Society every Wednesday and Thursday, from 3 to 6 p.m., until Sept. 8. While some of the kids are more interest ed in the drones than the history, and for some it’s the other way around, all men tioned how exciting it has been to learn how to use the drones and to get to see Oyster Bay from a new perspective.

■ They have been used by humani tarian groups to deliver food and medicine to remote areas.

■ Drones are used for everything from surveillance to movies, and even for farming: Farmers use them to sur vey their crops quickly and efficiently.

The program has two parts. First, chil dren will learn how to safely operate drones, as they are introduced to the tech nology and taught to use it responsibly. Second, they will use the devices to take photos of historical buildings around town, such as Sagamore Hill and Snoud er’s Drug Store, with each participant choosing a building and doing a presenta tion on it at the end of the program.

Oyster Bay residents will soon be noticing something new in the sky over the coming weeks. Drones are giving chil dren an opportunity to learn about both a new technology and the history of the hamlet.The Oyster Bay ments, ledgers and articles of clothing. According to Denice Sheppard, the organization’s director since 2017, the drone project originated when she saw some of McLean’s work. “I saw it as a way to introduce and encourage younger peo ple to learn more about the history of Oyster Bay,” Sheppard explained. “I was thinking of how to engage kids, how to reach them, and I thought that this is something new that certain kids might be interested in.”

Kenneth Cruz, a 13-year-old from Free port, mentioned how he knew a little about drones beforehand, but was really excited about actually flying them him self. “I knew that they use them a lot for studying the environment, (and) they use them in movies to record towns and get different shots,” Kenneth said. “I’m a beginner. I don’t know much about drones, but I’m learning more about what they use them for, how they’re used, how they’re made, and what I can use them for in my future.”

ThE LONg IsLAND Crisis Center’s annual suicide prevention walk is slated to return in-person on Sunday, Sept. 18, after a two-year hiatus caused by the coronavirus pandemic.

By JORDAN VALLONE jvallone@liherald.com S eptember is Suicide Prevention Month, and for the first time in since the start of the coronavi rus pandemic, the Long Island Crisis Center will raise money and aware ness — simply by walking. Its 14th annual event, “Let’s Walk, Let’s Talk-Stepping Together to Prevent Sui cide,” is slated for Sunday, Sept. 18 on the Long Beach boardwalk. It’s one of the Bellmore-based crisis center’s biggest events, but had to take place virtually the last couple of years to help protect its par ticipants from Covid-19.Sinceits first journey in 2009, the crisis center walk has provid ed a chance for people to come together and raise awareness for suicide pre vention, said Debra Katz, a vol unteer counselor for the center’s crisis hotline. Many use the day as an opportunity to forhavethoseremembertheymaylost.“Ithinkthat,peoplewho have lost loved ones to suicide, even though their loved ones are always on their minds and in their hearts every day, the walk is exclusively for their memory,” KatzAndsaid.there is always strength in num bers, said Tawni Engel, the crisis center’s associate executive director. “We’re all coming from this like-mind ed place of wanting to support one anoth er,” said Engel, who worked her way from an intern in 2008 to her current leader ship role about a year ago. “It’s a somber day, but we try to keep it upbeat.”Thewalk’s festivities kick off at 10:30 a.m., at 1 Laurelton Blvd. Besides the actual walkers, those showing up can expect music, Engel said, along with informational tables and booths from var ious organization. The morning program also honors the crisis center’s person of the year, and feature speeches about sui cideTheawareness.walkitself starts at 11:30. Those joining the physical part will find a specific walking path to follow, said Susan Slagg, the crisis center’s operations manager. But there is no pressure for any one to walk the entire time.

A big part of the crisis center’s work is helping those identify as part of the great er LGBTQ community. Engel has worked extensively in the past with the center’s LGBTQ+ youth organization, Pride for Youth. There is direct correlation between what the crisis center and Pride for Youth does because, Engel said, “sui cide numbers are so high in the LGBTQ+ community.”Thecrisis center has been hard at work preparing for the walk.

Katz has volunteered as a counselor for five years, deciding to join after she retired from teaching. “I wanted to do something meaningful, that would give back,” she said. “It has really added a lot to my life.”

He’s a tough, strong kid.” Hernandez is a shutdown cornerback who’ll get the toughest weekly assignment in the secondary, Ramsay said. “He’s not the biggest guy (5-foot-9) but he can go against big receivers and shut them down,” Ramsay said. “He has great all-around skills and is one of our vocal leaders.”Campbell will spearhead the pass rush from the edge and comes off an impressive first season. “I’m excited to see what he can do after last year,” Ramsay said. Wright, from Dix Hills, is one of the defensive X-fac tors. He’s been dynamic in camp and will start at safety.

“He looks to be a force to be reckoned with,” Ramsay said.Offensively, Ramsay is looking for the Lions to take things up a notch under the direction of new quarter back Luke Sprague, a transfer from LIU-Post. “He’s a tre mendous pocket passer with an extremely strong arm,” Ramsay said. “We feel he’s someone who can elevate our offense to another level for the next two years.”

“We have a lot of challenges on the schedule that we’re pumped about,” Ramsay said.

assau Community College’s football team will lean on a mix of returning starters and new comers to lead the way this season.

The Lions were the No. 1-ranked NJCAA Division III program most of last season and are looking to get back to the championship game (Red Grange Bowl in Glen Ellyn, Illinois) after falling just short to DuPage, 34-29, after beating the Chaparrals by two points during the regular season.

The Lions, who finished 6-4 last season, traditionally field a fierce defense and Ramsey believes the foundation is in place for the unit to thrive again.

The first time you hold your child in your arms, you make promises to love, protect and always be there to guide him or her. Then reality intrudes.Unfortunately for us and fortunately for them, things such as school force us to release our little ones for a while and put them in the care of teachers and school administrators, who must oversee several kids at once. Suddenly, our precious bundle faces a must-be-decided-now quandary and finds that mommy or daddy isn’t there to make all the decisions. Sometimes the situation is even scary. Challenges face our chil dren in the form of peer pressure, drugs, sex and bullying.Clinical psychologist and author Dr. John Duffy says: “Parents do need to talk with their kids about bullying, sex and peer pressure. Many parents I’ve worked with over the years will pro vide time for a lecture, often a one-time-only lecture. But they will often fail to provide time for ongoing discussion of these topics, which is what children really need. They need to know that we as parents are available to them as guides should they need help navigating the world of peer pressure.” “I work with teens and tweens. They are at particular risk for peer pressure to participate in sexual activity, drink or smoke pot. Many are bul lied in ways we could not have even imagined a generation ago (texting, social media). They need parents who can help them in real time. The stronger the connection between parent and child the likelier a parent’s word will be heeded and the likelier a parent’s limits will be honored.”When you have that all-important conversa tion, Dr. Fran Walfish recommends: “The most important thing your child or teen needs on his first day of school is to not feel lonely or isolated. Talk with your kid about what it takes to be a good friend. Include what feels comfortable and what doesn’t. Teach your child to follow her instincts.”“Most kids know right from wrong. Teach your kid to listen to his internal voice and follow his intuition, not the crowd. I would wait to dis cuss sex and cyber-bullying and other issues so as not to bombard and overwhelm your child before school starts. Too much talk can raise anxiety when your goal here is preparation and to reduce anxiety.”

“I’d position it more as ‘making good choices’ versus ‘peer pressure,’ because big picture, if your kid makes good choices throughout life, he/she is setting himself/herself up for success,” advises Amy Kossoff Smith, founder of The MomTini Lounge. “I’d advocate sitting down before school to talk about your routine/expec tations, and in that context, say that there will be many opportunities to decide what is best for him/her and that you hope he/she will come to you for advice when needed and will make good choices, especially when presented with ideas or opportunities that may not lead to a good out come.”

Photo: Peer pressure starts when kids are young, so it’s important to talk with your kids about it early.

Stay Involved — And Communicate Keeping the lines of communication open is vital. Your child needs to know that you are will ing to listen, discuss his or her experiences and not judge. Learn to listen to your child; don’t just lecture him and assume he will do only what you’ve told him. Lead by example; it’s hard to persuade a child not to drink while you’re knock ing back a frosty mug of beer. Make sure that your child is involved in activities that inspire a sense of belonging; being a vital member of a team will encourage her to feel good about her self. Make sure you know what television shows and movies your child is seeing, and talk with him about the values and situations portrayed.

On Tuesday, the Town Board members and rabbis assembled in front of Town Hall promised to condemn and reject racism in the Town.

“I was appalled by the antisemitic fliers that Freeport Village residents discovered outside their homes over the weekend – fliers that were filled with vitriol, bigotry, and dangerous lies,” Nassau County Legislator Debra Mulé said. “Following this incident, I had a lengthy conversa tion with NCPD Commissioner Patrick Ryder, and he reassured me that he is working closely with his counter parts at Freeport PD to ensure that all who live, work and worship in Nassau County can do so safely and with peace of mind.”Howard Colton, co-president of the Central Synagogue in Rockville Centre, Colton received word about the anti semitic literature spread across various towns as mem bers of his synagogue would approach him to express their concerns about the material.

“I lost a quarter of my family in the Holocaust, Colton said. “And I look at something like this, and I just don’t understand how people can think like this. I just can’t.” Colton, who identifies as Jewish, is influenced by his father, reformed Rabbi Lawrence Colton, who served the Freeport Jewish community for nearly 20 years prior to his death. Howard raises his two 14-year-old daughters in Freeport, believing that the propagation of hatred will one day “Hatred,change.unfortunately, has no bounds. And what we find is as much as we try to educate.” Colton said. “And as much as we condemn what’s happening, there are always going to be people that hate. And that’s that, that’s what killsTheme.”antisemitic fliers discovered in Freeport come after similar fliers were discovered in Long Beach, Rock ville Centre, and Oceanside in July.

“As a former police officer, I take this hateful rhetoric very seriously, especially when it is perpetuated against our Jewish friends and neighbors in the Town of Hemp stead,” Councilman Chris Corini said. “We on the Hemp stead Town Board are disgusted by these blatant acts of antisemitism, and we stand united against discrimination andMarilynbigotry.”Gales, president of Freeport’s sole synagogue, Congregation B’Nai Israel, expressed her concern about the antisemitic flyers and the Jewish community of Free port.“The Jewish community has been in Freeport since 1915 and was very prominent until it diminished within time as that is just the evolution of Religious institutions,” GalesGalessaid.added that within days of the antisemitic litera ture being found, the synagogue received flowers and a thoughtful note from a religious organization called the Philos Action League, a Christian nonprofit dedicated to fostering positive Christian engagement within communi ties.The note read, “To the members of the Jewish commu nity, we are the Philos Action League - a membership com munity of Christians who are committed to showing up, physically, in solidarity and friendship with the Jewish community when an act of antisemitism happens.” Luke Moon of the Philos Project sheds light on their organization. “The Philos is basically a community of Christians that anytime there’s an antisemitic incident, anywhere in the United States, that Christians will show up with white roses and a card saying that we stand in sol idarity with you,” Said deputy director Luke Moon of the Philos“GettingProject.back to a place where people physically show up in solidarity, I think it is much more powerful than a social media hashtag. I think it’s important to physically show up as a symbol of our commitment to standing against antisemitism instead of hashtag activism.”

The Town of Hempstead had to cope with a compara ble problem when antisemitic graffiti was discovered on a sign outside the town hall with the names of elected offi cials.The Town of Hempstead supervisor Donald Clavin, said Hempstead is home to the second-largest Jewish com munity in the country, behind New York City.

The public is invited to the exhibit’s opening reception at the Emily Lowe Gallery on Thursday, Sept. 8 from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. The reception includes remarks by Albert and refreshments.

A print, in the broadest definition, is a work of art composed of ink on paper created through an indirect transfer process. Four major printmaking methods have developed over the centuries: relief, intaglio, and the planographic techniques of lithography and screenprinting.“Printmakers may choose between methods to produce a distinct type of image or line quality,” Albert explains.”Artists will choose the technique based on how they want the final image to look. This exhibition will give viewers insight into how and why such artistic choices are made.”

“It’s helpful to get an understanding of the process to see how it’s made,” Albert says. “How ink sits on a plate and how it’s transferred is different. Also notice the image is reversed, it’s the opposite of what it is on the plate.”

Along with opening for Foo Fighters, The Rolling Stones and Guns N’ Roses, the band was handpicked by Mötley Crüe as the supporting act for their last-ever performances. They’ve toured incessantly since their formation, including worldwide headline shows and major festivals like Lollapalooza, Governors Ball and Isle of Wight. When Covid-19 brought touring to a halt, The Struts created their third album “Strange Days” in a charmed and frenzied burst of Saturday,creativity. Sept. 11, 8 p.m. $65, $45, $35, $25.

Of particular note, she cites Romare Bearden’s “The Family” for his use of tinting and photo engraving. And Henry Moore’s “13 Standing Figures,” which visually relates to a sculpture that resides on Hofstra’s South Campus. Woodcuts, the oldest form of printmaking, appeared in fifth century Chinese art, and in Europe since the 15th century. Early prints — most commonly woodcuts, wood engravings and metal plate engravings — were often produced to provide illustrations for publications and, in the hierarchy of artists, printmakers were considered “lesser than” painters and sculptors.

DAVID SERRANT WAS convicted of first degree attempted assault and two counts of sec ond degree criminal possesion of a weapon.

To Place A Notice Call 516-569-4000 x232 Search

A Freeport man was sentenced to 29 years in prison on Aug. 30 for shooting at a Freeport police officer during a foot chase in February 2018. David Serrant, 23, was convicted this May of first degree attempted assault and two counts of second-degree crimi nal possession of a weapon. Serrant was found not guilty on two charges of first-degree attempted mur der of a police office and one count of menacing a police officer. In addition to the nearly 30-year sentence, he is subject to five years of post-release supervision. On Feb. 25, 2018, at roughly 11:50 p.m., officers from the Freeport Police Depart ment responded to a 911 call that individ uals smoking marijuana outside of an apartment building on Pine Street. As the officers approached, Serrant left the scene and was chased by two offi cers. Serrant then fired one bullet at the officer, missing him in the process while the officer did not return fire. A police canine team assisted in find ing Serrant several minutes later, in pos session of an empty .40 caliber handgun. “When approached by police officers, this defendant could have easily made the choice to obey their orders,” Nassau County District Attorney Anne Donnelly stated in a news release. “Instead, he took off running and fired his gun direct ly at an officer during the chase. Fortu nately, no one was injured, and Serrant was apprehended within minutes. We thank the judge for his decision to hold the defendant accountable for his crimes with this significant prison sentence.” Herald File Photo

Q. We were told by a building inspector that we need a permit for making our garage into a bedroom and bathroom. He gave us 10 days to “respond.” He told us we just need an architect to file a sketch of the room; he would even help us expedite the permit. We called around and are being told some crazy things and high costs to prepare the sketch. Why are we being told we need all these things, like a survey, a possible Sandy repair permit, an energy report, etc.? The inspector didn’t say we needed any of this. Who’s telling us the truth? We’re so confused.

A. I’ve always won dered why people in your situation aren’t given a more thorough explana tion of all the things need ed for a permit. Code words like “sketch,” “expedite” and “simple,” along with phrases like “all you need is a permit,” or “you just …” are mis leading. Making a much more complicated process seem so simple that peo ple have a false sense of what is needed only adds stress and mistrust to the problem when a licensed individual is trying to get you through this legal procedure. Couple this with the knowledge of codes, structure and pitfalls that a seasoned professional must apply, and you may have a better sense of how you got pulled into a much more involved situation than you were told about and why it costs more than you assumed.

For example, there are many regulations for sleeping spaces and bathrooms, such as means of escape, minimum space size, plumbing require ments and use. In most jurisdictions, the extra bed room has been used as a non-permitted rental, so the examiner of the plans, not the inspector you met, may have a policy to first get proof that you are not illegally renting the space. If you have a door to the outside from the room, for example, they will require that it be substituted with a win dow or blocked entirely with wall materials, mean ing that you have some remedial construction to do.

Site plan, zoning analysis, energy loss calcula tions and more are all required. Good luck!

I’m working with a few files right now where the owners didn’t know that the ceiling heights are lower than allowed by state building code, so, in addition to applying for a building permit, we are in a multi-month processes of first applying for a building code variance. This requires much more documentation, time and cost to the owner that the inspector might have noticed and said something about when they saw the spaces in question, but the owner wasn’t made aware of it. The owner was also only told they needed an architect or engineer and a sketch. This creates the false sense that the much more complicated process was simple when it wasn’t, and left the licensed professional to look like the enforcer of the law and “the bad guy,” pos sibly trying to rack up more fees.

Since Covid-19 attacked us from Wuhan, China, we’ve looked to our public health organizations for reliable information. We understood that such a novel virus would make immutable guidance impos sible. Faced with something so complicated and so new, we all accepted that scien tists would need time to gather and analyze data before they could define the pandemic, predict its prog ress and develop vaccines andWhattreatments.bothered so many of us is the supreme arrogance of the gov ernment’s public health community in the face of its amazing incompetence.

able, human error or deliberate attack, CDC fights disease and supports commu nities and citizens to do the same. CDC increases the health security of our nation. As the nation’s health protection agency, CDC saves lives and protects peo ple from health threats.” It had 76 years of experience to prepare for what to do if a highly contagious virus started killing Americans. In the 1880s, Congress commissioned the Marine Hospital Service with exam ining passengers on arriv ing ships for signs of infec tious diseases in order to prevent epidemics. To spe cialize in that work, the MHS set up a small lab (on Staten Island), which would grow to be known as the National Institutes of Health. So the NIH has had about 130 years learning how to use medical science and best public health practices to prevent viral illnesses from becoming pandemics that might kill millions.Andyet in the winter of 2020 Ameri cans had the impression that the CDC and the NIH didn’t know what the hell they were doing, even though they condescend ingly acted like know-it-alls. That was a disastrous blow to our respect for those institutions. Worse than that was a suspi cion that their leaders, Drs. Anthony Fauci and Francis Collins, knew more about China’s infectious disease research than they were letting on. It’s hard to tell what’s worse: Thinking our institutions are incompetent, or suspecting they’re hiding the whole truth from us. Less critical than a bungling govern ment and inept disease-control regime, there are other examples of once reliable and now ineffective institutions. Are you getting your mail as regularly and accu rately delivered as you once did? How do you assess the common sense and general intelligence of most college grads you deal with on a daily basis? Do they inspire you with confidence in the future? When you deal with a business in person or by phone do you feel like they know what they’re doing? When you read supposedly fact-based articles in newspapers do you quickly see the bias or advocacy going on? Do you think new fellow employees are less able than the ones they replaced? What other examples of incompetence do you frequently encounter? Institutions have only ever been as com petent as the people in them and who lead them. It’s up to us to demand that our fed eral, state, county, local and school district institutions act competently. It’s up to peo ple who call themselves journalists to dis cover and report the unbiased whole truth, without trading that truth for access to those institutions. It’s up to us to vote.

Iwas thinking of redacting my col umn in the spirit of the moment. I spent all morning waiting for the redacted version of the warrant authorizing the search of Mar-a-Lago to drop and so it has, and so what? This endless cycle of “breaking news” doesn’t actually advance our knowledge of how and when Donald Trump might be held accountable for any alleged crimes. Will he ever pay for his egregious misbe havior and heart.thepeople.neithergoingworld?standinghasimmoralitythewhichstainedourintheHeisnotaway.AndarehisIcantellbydreadinmy

Abhor or admire him, Donald Trump was elected in 2016 in major part because most voters craved a return to compe tence after years of pedantic lectures but no achievement. Many of us think we’ve returned to wondering if anyone knows what they’re Politiciansdoing.aren’t the only ones under mining our confidence in institutions.

Where has all the competence gone?

The Mar-a-Lago search warrant is one of hundreds of hyped up turns of events in the unfolding story of the Trump years. The man has taken up residence in people’s minds, pushing out benign stuff like recipes and happy vacations and memories of leaders we have respected and even loved.

All over again I wonder at the deep, glorious expanse of white sand stretching down to the surf. This week the sun was brilliant in a blue sky studded with dar ling puffs of white. Oil tankers rode the horizon. The waves were lively, crashing around the rock jetties. I walked along the beach and took notice of everything I could hear: my rubber soles scuffing on the sand, the cawing of the seabirds roost ing around me, a jet leaving a ghost trail overhead.Afewpeople, widely scattered, were enjoying the day. One lone fisherman stood out on the rocks. The scene was soli tary; the heartbeat slowed, the mind qui eted and I felt like my better self as I set new footprints into the sand. At the tip of one jetty someone had placed a large American flag, which was tattered by the wind. If I knew how to write music, I would have composed an anthem from that image. It was a perfect experience. Isn’t this the most we can hope for—to leave our worries behind or at least set them aside for a while- and immerse ourselves in a setting of peace and beauty?

S ummers are for beaches, barbe cues and outdoor concerts. But for Faye, each and every day of her summers during her college years were spent inside a hot factory, pushing a button many times over. It was tedious, but it came with a pay check. One that, by the time her summer was over, she could fund just about every single cent of the upcoming fall and spring semesters toward her goal of shaping young minds as an elementary school teacher. And here she was, in front of a class of students, sharing her tenacity. Her persistence.Exceptthis was the early 1980s. A time when tuition, fees, room and board cost just under $3,000 for the whole year — a little more than $10,000 in today’s money. But that’s not the same for teachers walking into our classrooms today as fall classes begin — not just across Nassau County, but across the country. That number is now just under $29,000, according to the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce, as reported by Forbes last spring. While those numbers haven’t moved too much since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, they’ve certainly climbed significantly over the past 40 years — nearly three times the rate of inflation.Goingto college is supposed to pre pare our best young minds for the future. Instead, it creates significant burdens, with recent graduates carrying debts with them in six figures, many times before they even buy their first car, let alone their first house. Student loans are typically structured to only be present for the first 10 years of a graduate’s career. But a 2013 study by One Wisconsin Institute say that is more like the first 21 years of a career. That means many college graduates are help ing to secure student loans for their kids, while still paying off their own. It’s a “circle of life” that shouldn’t even exist. Yet it does. And whether we are product of colleges from the 1980s or today, it affects each and every one of us. For one, the number of high school seniors choosing college after gradua tion is dropping. Just 15.9 million pur sued undergraduate degrees in 2020, according to the U.S. Department of Edu cation’s Institute of Education Sciences. That’s from a peak of 18.1 million in 2010, and has steadily declined ever since.Yet, more than $1.6 trillion in student loans remain outstanding for 45 million people, according to the White House. That’s an average of $36,000 per student. Such a debt load also makes it harder for new college graduates to get started on their own, independent lives. In fact, more than half of college students sur veyed by Pew Research Center said they were back home living with their par ents in late 2020 — the highest percent age since the Great Depression. Sure, we could blame Covid-19, but those numbers were already past 47 percent and climb ing even before the pandemic. Yet, the federal government’s plan to forgive up to $20,000 in student debt for anyone not among the super-wealthy is wrong — not because it’s wiping away student debt, but because it’s not wiping away enough of it. President Biden’s own numbers paint a horrifying picture for America’s postsecondary education system. The cost of a public four-year university has sky rocketed nearly 200 percent since 1980, but federal aid through Pell Grants has grown just 20 percent. In 1980, Pell Grants could offset 75 per cent of your total college expenses. Now? It’s barely 30 percent. That’s not how a country makes education a priority — and it’s certainly not how a country remains a superpower. This grant forgiveness isn’t a handout. It’s simply our government trying to catch up on the commitment made to each and every young person so many years ago. That means ensuring public funding is there while controlling costs at public universities. And at the very least, make community college free. Even the Founding Fathers felt educa tion was essential in ensuring democra cy, although it would take decades to establish broad-access public schools for children. In 1910, just one out of every 10 people had high school diplomas. Today, it’s above 90 percent. Investing in education makes a differ ence — but so does not investing in edu cation. Except that creates the kind of difference we’d rather not experience. Faye was able to fund her college by not only pressing a button over and over again at a factory all summer long, but because of Washington’s commitment to herBiden’seducation.move on restoring that com mitment is a start, but there’s still a long way to go.

That anyone, including our veterans, would have the nerve to accept this position and stand up in front of 25 impressionable children and think he/she can teach with out having had the methods courses or the hands-on student teaching experience is simply arrogant.

A s election season heats up, we are once again hearing the same worn-out message parrot ed by Democrats hoping to get elected. You know it: “I support access to quality, affordable health care.” But no one ever questions why health care should be this way. Because as far as I can see, health care shouldn’t just be affordable. It should be free. Under rare cir cumstances, like in rural areas of the country, get ting access to health care is gen uinely difficult. There are situa tions in which there is a real shortage of doc tors, and they must be addressed. But for the vast majority of Americans, the real barrier to health care is its prohibitively high cost.You have “access” to health care in the same way you have “access” to a Lambo rghini. What’s stopping you? Go get one! Clearly, the problem isn’t supply; the cars are there. It’s the fact that for most Amer icans, it’s way too expensive. The difference is, you can live without a Lambo, but you can’t live without health care.

Frankly, I wouldn’t mind paying higher taxes if it meant that my fellow Amer icans would receive the care they needed. But call it whatever you want. You already pay “taxes” to pri vate insurance companies in the form of premiums, copays and deductibles. And when expensive emer gency services are utilized for prevent able health problems, you foot part of the bill.Contrary to popular opinion, govern ment programs are extremely efficient. Social Security spends less than 1 percent of its budget on administration, and Medicare spends 2 percent, compared with a low estimate of 17 percent among private insurers, who spend many of your “tax” dollars on profits and market ing rather than health care.

I’m not suggesting that our good, hardworking doc tors work for free. Rather, we ought to provide every one in the country with uni versal health care through a single-payer program. Everyone would pay into a pool, and the government would use that money to pay doctors for treatment.

FRAMEWORK by Tim Baker

Remind them that single-payer is a policy supported by a majority of Americans. Health care policy shouldn’t be about providing “access to quality, affordable health care.” It should be about providing quality health care, period.

Will they stay up at night tweaking the next day’s lesson to make it even better? Will they create hands-on lessons? Can they do the new math required (or maybe not required in Florida) of elementary school children, and will they teach his tory the way it happened?

I agree — but her argument fell flat when she discussed the recent Supreme CourtGreenbergdecision.states, “the Supreme Court should not infringe on my personal right to make that choice.” My understanding is that the court took no one’s rights away.Itruled that the “right” to an abortion is not based in the Constitution, and that any laws about abortion should come from the people, through their state or federal representatives.

Your current health insurance would be phased into the new plan over several years, during which you could still access services.Thepath forward is clear: We need to move toward a single-payer system in the U.S. It will save money, lives, nerves, and a whole lot of paperwork. Luckily, we don’t need to move forward alone. We can look to our Pacific ally, Taiwan, which already has an outstanding single-payer system. Taiwan has a higher life expec tancy, a lower infant mortality rate and a lower maternal mortality rate — all for less than we spend in the U.S. If you want to reform our brutal health care system, find and call your state senator at nysenate.gov/find-mysenator. There is legislation that has passed the Assembly called the New York Health Act, which would enact singlepayer in New York state. Contact your U.S. representative as well, or call Sen. Chuck Schumer, at (202) 224-6542, or Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, at (202) 224-4451.

When did the idea that we should pay for necessary medical procedures become accepted? It’s as barbaric as demanding payment to breathe air. And the concept of affordability is completely subjective. A million-dollar procedure is affordable to a billionaire, but for those who live in poverty, coughing up a couple of thousand dollars a year — or even a couple of hundred — for bare-bones private insurance is onerous.

Why the heck should health care be affordable?

study, from the University of Massachu setts Amherst, put the price tag of singlepayer at just under $3 trillion, compared with the $4.1 trillion the American Medi cal Association estimated we spent on health care in 2020, meaning single-payer could save us $22 trillion over 20 years. Of course, there are con cerns about higher taxes.

The high court ‘took no one’s rights away’

The list of potential benefits is long. If you lost your job, you wouldn’t lose your health insurance. Small businesses wouldn’t have to bear the enormous cost of employee health care. Unions would no longer have to negotiate for health care benefits; 100 percent coverage would finally be achieved; and we would no lon ger lose 45,000 Americans a year due to a lack of health insurance.
