I never said "give teachers guns" like was stated on Fake News @CNN & @NBC. What I said was to look at the possibility of giving "concealed guns to gun adept teachers with military or special training experience - only the best. 20% of teachers, a lot, would now be able to

History shows that a school shooting lasts, on average, 3 minutes. It takes police & first responders approximately 5 to 8 minutes to get to site of crime. Highly trained, gun adept, teachers/coaches would solve the problem instantly, before police arrive. GREAT DETERRENT!

If a potential "sicko shooter" knows that a school has a large number of very weapons talented teachers (and others) who will be instantly shooting, the sicko will NEVER attack that school. Cowards won’t go there...problem solved. Must be offensive, defense alone won’t work!

They're not going to walk into a school if 20 per cent of the teachers have guns. It may be 10 per cent, it may be 40 per cent.

And what I'd recommend doing is the people that do carry, we give them a bonus. We give them a little bit of a bonus.

If you had a teacher who was adept at firearms,they could very well end the attack very quickly.

JOHN YDSTIE, BYLINE: The whiff of inflation that sent the stock market tumbling came when the government reported earlier this month that over the past year wages rose 2.9 percent. That's the biggest increase in almost a decade. And that's good news for workers, says economist Gus Faucher of PNC Financial Group. But, he says, it also could be sowing the seeds of inflation.

GUS FAUCHER: Businesses are reporting that it's difficult for them to find the workers that they need so they respond by raising pay. That's obviously good news for workers, but it does raise concerns about inflationary pressures building.

YDSTIE: And, Faucher says, the big tax cut and spending package from Washington added even more fuel for economic growth. He says that's likely to push unemployment even lower and force businesses to pay even more for workers.

FAUCHER: With higher pay, businesses try to recoup that by raising the prices for the goods and services they sell. And so that leads to stronger overall inflation, which is prices throughout the economy.

YDSTIE: And that's how inflation normally ramps up. But economist Megan Greene is skeptical that classic model of wage and price inflation is working in today's economy, and she thinks the tax windfall that companies have coming could actually be used in a way that puts some downward pressure on inflation.

MEGAN GREENE: I think there's an avenue for the windfall from the tax bill that most analysts aren't considering, and that's that companies decide that they're going to try to protect their market share by cutting prices as they're trying to compete with huge conglomerates like Amazon.

YDSTIE: That windfall could allow companies to raise wages while keeping prices for goods and services they sell in check. And Greene, who's the chief economist at Manulife, says there are other powerful disinflationary forces in the economy, including globalization.

M. GREENE: There's an oversupply of cheap labor globally, and companies don't have to hire within the U.S. anymore. So that keeps upward pressure off of wages and therefore inflation. Also we've got the gig economy.

YDSTIE: Like Uber drivers or freelance writers and I.T. workers. Those contract workers can provide low-cost labor for companies. And then Greene says there's demographics.

M. GREENE: As the baby boomers are retiring, we're replacing them with much younger, cheaper workers. And so there isn't a lot of upper pressure on wages or inflation.

「電柱や電線の地中化に向け、政府がまとめた「無電柱化推進計画」案の概要が分かった。

防災上重要な道路や、お年寄りが歩きやすくなるバリアフリー化が必要な道路を「重点的に無電柱化を進める対象」と位置づけ、地中化を事実上強制する内容だ。2018年度から3年間で、1400キロ・メートルの無電柱化を実現する目標も掲げた。

推進計画は、16年末に施行された無電柱化推進法に基づいて初めてまとめるもので、国の無電柱化政策の基本方針となる。国土交通省は19日にも計画案の意見公募(パブリックコメント)を始め、年度内に正式決定する。」
