Senator Sanders Idea: 32 Hour Work-Week?

 Draft came up in the Senate....making the standard work-week....32 hours instead of 40 hours.

I paused over this.

He wanted the pay and benefits to remain the same (a gift, I assume).

To make this work....you'd have to mandate limits on restaurants, bars, stores. 

Any member of commerce/industry/banking....to support this?  I doubt it.

Personally, I would support this....if Congress/Senate would limit their hours to 28 per week, and force them weekly to adjourn by Thursday morning.

Two Observations

 1.  I spent a fair amount of time this weekend...over the Lindsey Clancy case.  I came to this odd list of drugs prescribed for her....prior to the killing of the kids....by different doctors:

Sertraline (Zoloft)

Lorazepam (Ativan)

Hydroxyzine

Buspirone (Buspar)

Trazodone

Fluoxetine (Prozac)

Zolpidem (Ambien)

Mirtazapine (Remeron)

Clonazepam (Klonopin)

Quetiapine (Seroquel)

Diazepam (Valium)

Lamotrigine (Lamictal)

Amitriptyline

So....I asked AI....don't some of these conflict with others listed, and make matters worse?  Yeah....responds AI.

It begs the question....aren't the prosecution folks and judge....simply wasting time....she was not in state of mind...while on this drug-combo deal....to be rational.

2.  The second thing I spent time on....for research....this Ilhan Omar-marrying-her-brother story.  True or false.

About an hour into this reading....I was finished.  

Unless the ID of the guy was totally false to start with (I'm willing to consider that irrational idea)....yeah, she married her brother.  Enough to get citizenship papers yanked, and kicked out?  Probably.

The question is....if she leaves for Somalia....what happens then?  I'm of the mind that she'll enter into the EU in some fashion, and stage a arrival....rebuilding a political career somewhere else.
