======== There are 4th and 5th perspective[s] and more, proliferatively a la Keynes: The ability to dismiss policy ideas because the analytics used to justify/explain the policy are found wanting. To hand waive the issue away as cynicism is itself cynicism, possibly the very stuff of the politics in dispute. Not into damage, but thinking pluralistically. Reducing hours is one *good* idea. We need many more, no? E. _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
