All night kids
I see PBS on one of their channels has kid programs on all night. Do I understand this correctly. Are 5-10 year old kids up all night watching TV??? Or are adults up all night watching kid programs. Why?

PBS programming runs like that because kids are in different time zones.
it's dark in Californicate at 9:30 pm when it's 12:30 am NY time.
That's backwards. think about all those kids forwards who are still awake, Hawaii, Guam
Indeed, and as kids go to bed in Hawaii, they're starting to get up in New York.

Hawaii is -9. Ny is -5. Guam is +10.
Midnight in Ny is 7pm in Hawaii
California is 9pm (lots of kids still up at 9p)
Alaska is 7 and 6pm.
Guam is 3pm the next day
The point is that kids are up at all hours and all over the world. PBS would be 24/7

I've seen it all over. PBS is picked up by independent stations and they feed them content.
They do not control the independent stations, but they do sell them the content.
Independent stations would be outside the control of the United States and the territories.
I've learned most of my Spanish watching PBS Kids, we'd go south and watch the shows in the morning while eating breakfast.
Since the stations get free/stolen (aka government) money, they have no incentive to not to waste money. Perhaps they get paid just for showing an education program, doesn't matter if anyone watches.

Hawaii is 5 hours behind NY, 2 behind California. My work schedule was based on the time difference for awhile. That's more enough to have kids waking up in one state while going to bed in another.

A fallacy and nothing more than a hateful personal opinion.
Guam has no sub-stations. It does however run from 6am to midnight.
EXC thinks that any one who gets a hand out or some kind of fund from the government is a evil person.
PBS and NPR, for example, are really good and I'll support them until the day I die.

Good for you, so why then do we need deadly-forced charity if people like you will do it voluntarily? Why not lower taxes so you'd have more dough to support charities you believe in?
Haven't you been following the immigration debate? Apparently, Americans are completely incapable of being educated to do the jobs our economy needs. So we must import massive numbers of foreigners to do the work Americans are just to dumb to be trained to do. So why bother trying to educated American kids?

I was being sarcastic. Good and evil are purely opinions
I don't watch news. I don't watch television.
Stealing American jobs? Not happening. The jobs are there, go get them. The problem is that no American wants to go out in to a field to pick oranges. They pay .50 an bushel and you work from 5am to 9pm. No education needed.
Every time I hear people say "foreigners are stealing American jobs" I know I'm talking to a uninformed individual.

Yes, Americans would rather watch themselves and their families die of starvation than pick fruit. Thank you for pointing out that piece of SJW wisdom.
Have you ever heard of supply and demand? Obviously if they punished people that hired illegals, they'd have to pay more. Americans can't support a family with the illegal wages paid to illegals. In rural Mexico, you can raise a family of 8 for under $1000/mo.
I'm willing to work on orange picking robots if a capitalist is willing to pay me to make it worth my time. Cheap illegal labor does change economic activity. I know I'm talking to an uniformed individual when they can't understand that.

There's enough families living off of the standard schedule every day across the US to justify it. Some families home school and make their own hours. Others travel a lot and at all hours of the day. And then you have the kids who aren't quite old enough for school but are definitely old enough for tv, who's hours of being awake largely depend on their parents jobs/lifestyle.
It definitely isn't a majority, but if only one in every 100 families has a use for it, that's still millions of kids with nothing to do driving their parents crazy lol.

No, idiots like you don't want to pay taxes so your public education system is worse than Cuba or North Korea, and your population is therefore too uneducated for high tech jobs, so you need immigrants from countries that know taxes is a good thing and use tax revenues to increase the education of it's people.
The irony is it's YOUR fault that America needs immigrants. You and those like you.
Enlightened Atheist, Gaming God.
You need to do some research.
They don't punish them because they follow the law. The law states that the "picker" only has to provide the paperwork needed and that the "grower' does not need to verify the paperwork.
So how can you punish them when there is no law stating that they are doing any thing wrong?
And for the "supply and demand" thing, who really gives a shit about it? No one. Not the county, city, state or federal governments give a shit. If they did they would fix it, but alas, this is the problem with "lobbyists and special interest groups".
Only poor people want to pick oranges for $40 a day. Americans are lazy. They want $40 a day working at a McDonalds.
Total bullshit. Government is in bed with business, so they don't enforce the laws on the books. These employers know they are hiring illegals and their paperwork is fake. Where is there an exception for Farm workers in E-Verify? What about all the OSHA and minimum wage laws they break as well. Illegal housing for the workers on these farms as well.
Government and Big Business want slave labor, so we have it.
The guy that can't support his family because wages are driven down by illegals. The family that pays high rents because of competiton for housing from illegals.
I agree government does give a shit about the working man, it is a benefactor of big business. It is all about money and slave labor is a good way to get rich.
Population pressures mean that wages are at low end are at the minimum level needed to keep the worker and his family barely alive. On $40/day in Mexico you can survive, in the USA you starve to death.

Why don't you fact check first before you spew bullshit?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_spending_on_education_(%25_of_GDP)
India 3.3%
Canada 5.5%
USA 5.6%
A huge percentage of these IT workers will be from India because USA just can't educate very many.
Granted Cuba is higher. But this is because economy in this socialist paradice doesn't produce shit and much of the economy is underground.
What is wrong with just having the people that want a lot of kids pay for their education voluntarily? If you don't want to pay, don't have kids. Why should I pay to educate kids that are not my own?
That should be a criteria for being allowed to have kids, are you will and able to educate them, so governemnt doesn't find it necessary to steal from others.
And WTF horrible things are going to happen if we don't let millions of IT workers in. Zuckerburg won't become a Trillionaire by collecting and selling everyone's personal information? Less Americans will become homeless due to high housing costs? Less traffic on the roads? Less stress on the enviroment? A lower carbon footprint? What?

Your idea sucks.
If we give Americans the jobs in the fiels, that accounts for roughly 10% of them who can actually do the job.
Of that 10% we would have to raise the wages of the pickers by 50%, roughly another $16,000 a year. An illegal picker makes roughly $91 a day. That's $33,000 a year before taxes and all the other shit is taken out. Yes, illegals pay taxes and SS.
When we give them higher wages, the cost of produce goes up, this means that those people in the field need to now pay more when buying foods, meaning they will want more wages, which means they will want Unions, which means we'll have a big fuck fest, blah blah blah blah.
Why don't we also give those American workers a supplemental income because in order for them to stay afloat they have to travel. See, once they pick all those oranges, they gotta go some place else ot pick blueberry or apples or some other form of produce. That means they are on the road with their wife and kids (maybe) which means they have more to repair which means they higher costs which means they need medical and dental, which then causes the cost of produce to go up YET AGAIN.
Pretty soon the cost of produce is so high people like these American's who are picking the produce won't be able to buy them any more. Their need to eat rice and beans, just like those illegals do, which means they will turn in to Mexicans which means we'll need to deport them and get new Americans to go out and pick produce.. eventually no one will be left in America by the wealthy 1% and they will need to bring in works to pick the produce, which means we'll need to open the borders.
Sigh.... your idea really, really sucks the gaping dick hole.
Yes. I know many pay SSN tax. That is another reason government doesn't want to enforce the law. They got free slave labor. They don't have to pay them back.
I think you're argument is totally moot. Robots are the new Mexicans.

So illegals are competing againt American engineer, technicians and factory workers.

You obviously do not drink wine.
That machine is great for Welch's grape drink or grapes that are of a lesser quality (Gallo Boxed Wine)
It will never replace wine vineyards workers who have to manually inspect every grape.
There is no competition.
Unlike you, I know what I'm talking about. Money spent on education by gdp doesn't say squat. A country can spend more per student than another country on its education system yet spend less per gdp. Learn basic math and think before opening your fool mouth.
Why should education of the next generation bankrupt only those contributing to the next generation when the future of the nation depends on the next generation? You want the US to collapse just because you're too cheap to pay taxes? lol. How many skilled people will there be to help your sorry ass when you're an old man if only the rich can afford to educate their kids, and how expensive do you think it will be when only 10% of the population can generate skilled workers? You have to have had a massive head injury to be so dense and witless.
Society learned centuries ago that educated children benefits everyone. I guess the bare minimum average intelligence of the human species is significantly superior to your own. Probably why you're a nobody saying dumb things that a child could poke holes in.
.
No it shouldn't, and you're literally stupid for saying so.
The slow collapse of your empire followed by your country as everyone in the world surpasses you and the US becomes a 3rd world nation. No big deal.
No, someone somewhere else will do it.
More like more Americans will become homeless as the government won't have sufficient revenue to build affordable housing so housing costs will go through the roof.
And less roads, and less maintenance on those roads.
More like more stress on the environment as larger numbers of people are forced to find alternatives to urban life.
Probably a greater carbon footprint as the population becomes too dumb to use anything but fossil fuels and rejects clean alternatives.
Enlightened Atheist, Gaming God.
More government on education would make Americans less likely to be able to do high tech jobs. When students and parents are not spending their own money, they don't care if it is waisted. If someone uses their own money on education, they are going to study hard, use it to improve their prospects, it is an investment. When it is free money from the taxpay, they party and study whatever they please. More money for education means more degrees in gender studies, social activism and other SJW shit.
The story convienently changes when the subjest is taxes. When it is immigration, our nation is totally dependent upon bringing millions of workers both for high and low skill jobs. Fine let them do all the work so Americans don't have to be educated.
What we fall into a giant sinkhole which conveniently ends at the Canadian border? We all starve because we're too lazy to pick fruit? We'd become like eastern Europe after Soviet Union collapsed? Iwebeck says it is not so bad.
All the worlds information is online. So what can a school teach that you can't learn for free?
School have become a total scam. At best they are a babysitting service or social. They really are welfare for teachers and administrators. University are just places for young adults to avoid growing up for a few years. Elite universities like Harvard delibrately keep the number of doctors they graduate low so as to not dilute their brand.
It is all a scam.
Yes, people should just have as many kids as they can and make it the reponsibilty and cost of other to raise. Worker bees for the welfare queens and sperm donors.
Don't you want that? Third world countries are third world because of overpopulation. More technology does not improve people's lives.
Like the fine government provided housing projects in Chicago? Would just be horrible if I couldn't live in a place like that.
Probably a greater carbon footprint as the population becomes too dumb to use anything but fossil fuels and rejects clean alternatives.
What is the point of educating people to do things like climate engineering. According to you, it is way to difficult for humans to achieve such things as this. So all the technology job will be to help someone like Zuckerburg get even richer. Again you make no sense, you despise capitalism, yet you support giving rich capitalists easy access to millions of imported slaves. And training US/Canadians to be their slaves with tax dollars. It just shows you you're actually a capitalist pawn, their useful idiot.
