I heard an interview with one of the caretakers: they know it's not a great look, but it provides a ton of funding for their preservation and education projects. I think it was an episode in this series.

Yeah. I've had college instructors joke about accepting bribes for better grades, but it's usually something like "tonight's winning lottery numbers" or "bars of gold" or patently ridiculous amounts of money

But "the schools" is only part of it. In my town, we had neighborhood public library-, parks department-, and museums programs for pre-teen (10-12) and older. The public libraries were also just open as a place to hang out in the evenings and on the weekends.

More money for schools is great, but what about the other 16 hours of the day? After-school programs can provide a valuable bridge for kids who aren't getting good guidance at home. My circumstances weren't nearly as bad as many, but free after school programs and the public library definitely kept me out of trouble at a vulnerable time in my life.

Reply to comment by st1ck-n-m0ve in At one point this was a world record holding ship. by FGoose
Yeah. I worked in the industry for a few years (shout-out to SIU!) Between containerization, more reliable cargo liner service, and passenger airlines, we'll probably never see the likes of SSUS again. There's simply no reason that a non-military ship needs to go that fast for that far.
There's easily a whole Ken Burnsworth of documentary material about the age of shipping epitomized by the SS United States and the end of that age.

What do you mean "immunity"? A political trial (impeachment/conviction by the legislature) is the consequence.

They are elected officials, so the only recourse is state impeachment, much like they're trying to do to ol' Larry K.
I'll say the same thing about these county election bums that others have said about the state impeaching Larry: The county voted the bum in, let them vote the bum out. Keep your Harrisburg shenanigans out of the inner workings of my city.

Probably a recollection or based on some older drawing. I couldn't find any contemporary pictures of the Tun in a brief Google search.
