The Supreme Court ruled unanimously Wednesday that the government can seize a person's Social Security benefits to pay old student loans.

Want more details on how this pertains at the individual level? Have a look here.

Want more details on how to get somebody to do something to change the law so this kind of crap doesn't happen again to people who've already gotten the shaft by both life and the government? Pop over here and contact your elected officials.

I can't fix the RL problems that're plaguing you. I wish I could.

I can, however, provide palliative care. King Arthur Flour just informed me that your parcel was shipped today, via Fedex Ground, and that it should be in your home by the thirteenth of December.

Contact me for the tracking number so you can peg where it is as things move along.
