Penalty Plan Aims to Curb State Dumping in PA
A forthcoming plan targets illegal trash dumping on state property in Pennsylvania. In Michaux State Forest several offenders have been convicted within a week. Fines mostly total $25 with some magistrates doubling penalties. Wealthier violators may avoid repeated fines by proper disposal elsewhere, while Washington County sees few arrears, a public magistrate campaign like Franklin County could deter the practice as people tire of fines.

No Sugar-Coating Of Man's Failure
Commencement speakers have long urged graduates to carry humanity forward yet today focus more on failures than past successes. Dr Linus Pauling, addressing UC Berkeley College of Social Sciences, warned wealth is unevenly distributed with 2.8 billion poor earning 10 percent of global income while a tiny elite holds 0.1 percent of people. He questioned whether the current imbalance justifies pulling wealth from the rich to aid the poor, arguing wealth, used properly, can generate more wealth and charity alone can’t ease misery. The piece critiques the idea that development hinges on sacrificing the haves, and notes that current graduates seem to know more information than true wisdom.
