“It is extremely advantageous to be able to bring a number of investigations under the formula of a single problem. For in this manner, we not only facilitate our own labour, inasmuch as we define it clearly to ourselves, but also render it more easy for others to decide whether we have done justice to our undertaking. ”

Immanuel Kant, “The Critique of Pure Reason.” [1781, 2nd ed. 1787] translated by J. M. D. Meiklejohn.

Beatriz Vargas, a single mother who makes $17.41 an hour washing dishes at a Stanford dining hall, said she can’t afford to rent a room in the area, in part because she earns too much from her job to be eligible for food stamps. Some nights she pays $15 to rent a van from her child’s babysitter to sleep in for the night. Stanford officials have also given her cash-value gift cards that she uses to pay for motels.
