这种污名化最初始于那些在服用类固醇期间自杀的青少年的父母，他们向国会议员请愿。在读《The Waxman Report》之前，我完全不知道大家到底在吵什么。http://www.thenewatlantis.com/publications/the-steroids-era https://www.amazon.com/Waxman-Report-Congress-Really-Works/d...
That stigma started with the parents of teenagers, who committed suicide while taking steroids, appealing to their congressman. Prior to reading The Waxman Report, I had no idea what the fuss was about. http://www.thenewatlantis.com/publications/the-steroids-era https://www.amazon.com/Waxman-Report-Congress-Really-Works/d...
“奥尔巴尼是好法案的坟场。”——引自一位朋友的话。改变政策、推行立法往往需要几十年。一本非常通俗易懂的入门书是《The Waxman Report》。https://www.amazon.com/Waxman-Report-Congress-Really-Works/d... 我的不请自来的建议是：- 把这种愤怒转化为行动。去筹款。- 建立一个能跑马拉松的组织。倦怠……
"Albany is where good legislation goes to die." -- Quote from a personal friend It's takes decades to change policy, enact legislation. A very readable intro is the Waxman Report. https://www.amazon.com/Waxman-Report-Congress-Really-Works/d... My unsolicited advice is: - Convert this outrage into action. Do fund raising. - Set up an organization that can run a marathon. Burnout…
……持续数年的地方行动，比如我和我的一百个朋友直接扎营在我的参议员或众议员办公室里。另外可能还有40个地方团体也这么干。这很难办成。前参议员亨利·瓦克斯曼的《The Waxman Report》一书讲述了他的办公室如何在某些议题上耕耘了数十年，以及要想取得实质性进展需要付出什么。非常务实，所以从某种角度来说也极其乐观。我目前正在啃《The Politics of Attention》，这本书……
…sustained years long local action, eg me and 100 of my friends camping in my Senator's or Representative's office. Ditto probably 40 other local groups. Hard to pull off. Sen. Henry Waxman's book The Waxman Report relates how his office has worked on some issues for decades, what it takes to move the needle. Very pragmatic, so in a way very optimistic. I'm currently chewing through The Politics of Attention, which…
……然后最终迎来胜利。想想任何重大的、实质性的社会进步：解放黑奴、普选权、社会福利、工人安全、童工保护等等等等。每一个都经历了数十年的酝酿。我建议你读读前美国参议员亨利·瓦克斯曼写的《The Waxman Report》，感受一下制定政策、推动改变需要付出多少心血和时间。你可以继续用愤世嫉俗、冷漠和不作为来让自己无能为力，或者去跟随……
…then eventually victory. Think of any major, significant social progress. Emancipation, suffrage, welfare, worker safety, child labor, etc. etc. Each decades in the making. I encourage you to read The Waxman Report by former US Sen Henry Waxman to get a sense of how much effort and time it takes to forge policy, move the needle. Continue to disempower yourself thru cynicism, apathy, and inaction. Or follow the…
现实点吧。我建议你读读《The Waxman Report》这本书，以便更好地了解政策和法案是如何出炉的。这是一本适合门外汉的轻量级入门书。TLDR：做研究、建立支持基础、达成共识都需要数十年时间。然后重大的改变看起来就会发生……
Realist. I encourage you to read the book The Waxman Report, to better understand how policy and legislation are forged. It's a lightweight, layperson intro. TLDR: It takes decades to research, build support, reach consensus. And then big changes apparently happen…
关于类固醇，在读前参议员亨利·瓦克斯曼的《The Waxman Report》之前，我一直以为这不过是小题大做，比如棒球运动员嗑药罢了。后来我才知道，类固醇对于青少年和其他有抱负的人来说是个严重的问题，会导致健康问题，甚至偶尔引发自杀。瓦克斯曼参议员自己对这个议题的介入……
re steroids I thought it was a lot of fuss over nothing, eg baseball players juicing, until I read The Waxman Report by former Sen Henry Waxman. I learned that steroids were a serious problem for teenagers and other aspirants, leading to health problems, and occasionally suicide. Sen Waxman's own intro to the issue…
