The problem with anything is trying to over control it. Progress waits for no one. No one has to force progress it will happen even if you try to prevent it. The climate will take care of it self, the human race will invent new technology and carbon pollution will decrease. The problem today is people are panicking and panic never works. Just get out of the way and progress will take care of any problem real or imagined. Progress waits for no one.
I wasn't going to bother voting for Gov. on the 7th as I am filled with disgust by Chris Christie's Lieutenant Guadagno, but Democrat Murphy and his pledge to turn our already screwed and overtaxed state into a sanctuary for illegal Mexicans is something that I cannot sit idly by and not cast a vote against.So thats it. A lesser of two evils argument sends me top the poll on the 7th to vote for an official that fills me with revulsion. Only less revulsion than the alternative.
Hard to believe this was only 5 short years ago. If the Russians are even slightly as dangerous as Democrats now hysterically claim, what does that say about Obama and his judgement?
Some may say I need a psychiatrist, but I've always enjoyed politics and the topics involved. With that being said, wading into the sewage of political discourse these days is an exercise in madness. Gone are the days when such discourse could lead to anything remotely resembling a civilized exchange of ideas. We've ushered in a new era where most people who have such interest are more out to prove that they are right, and any person with any disagreement, or objection to any policy and ...
I was talking about political issues with a friend on fb and it caused me to decide never to do it again. The friend had posted on the topic of Trump, and a Jewish issue of some kind, I think it was one of those unfounded Trump/Antisemitism attacks, so I gently, or not so gently reminded him that Obama's support in Israel was the lowest of any American President in history. The poll I cited was not tilted or partisan in any way, cause it listed Bill Clinton as the Israeli favorite. So it rea...
I can't take credit for this as I found it out there on the internet. I was amused, so I thought I'd share. A Schumer. In the animal world when a donkey is mated with a mule the result is a jackass. The modern term now for a jackass is a schumer. Unlike a mule, noted to be a dependable hard working animal, in contrast, the schumer is exceedingly belligerent, un-dependable, and spends much of it's time braying at the world. Braying is somewhat of a disgusting sound emitted by a ...
There's a lot of mystical, teary-eyed attachment, especially among my fellow libertarians, to the idea of a hard backing such as gold for the dollar. The reality is simple supply and demand. People need dollars to pay their taxes. There is effectively no substitute. Mortgages and other financial instruments in the U.S. are also tied to the dollar and there is no sign that somehow bitcoin or any other replacement - including gold - is immediately av...
Can we have an extension on the day? Hows about a year without a Democrat?
Everything has changed. The internet has changed. Instead of information on the rise, we have a brand of censorship and authoritarianism that is far removed from filtering just mere obscenity. In the name of combating our own alleged racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, and any other perceived 'isms' or psychological disorders that offend the sensibilities of so-called progressives, we now have an Orwellian situation where you had better watch not only what you say, but what you think...
How many syrian refugees going to china?
Found this just surfing yahoo news. It is strictly apolitical and should not be construed otherwise....otherwise I'll get into trouble. Satire is a good thing.
A very interesting phenomenon takes place when one goes on Facebook to find liberal friends and family members pouring their livers out with the most vile accusations against people who voted for Trump. They claim a Trump voter was motivated by racism, sexism, and various other offenses they conjure up, or copy and pate from Rachael Maddow and Van Jones, cause they can hardly generate their own thoughts, apparently. They are perfectly comfortable hurling completely unfounded and vile accusati...
Chanciller blah blah who was running the imperial senate during the end of the old republic. First in the book Amadala identifies herself when the ship is in hyperspace to corusant. Now you decide which Amadala you want. The one that the slave called for his resignation is ellegal also, but this is not my point. The slave had no power to call for a vote. The chancillor should have fought this, but what I'm about to point out is that until Amadala's position as queen tern ran out, and she...
What an election season. Democrats are hardly worth the time to write about anymore, but Republicans are proving to be even worse. They have now been exposed as career politicians with absolutely no loyalty to party, only to interests, and money. Need evidence? Look no further than "war hero" John McCain. Most people that I know were so sickened by the idea of him becoming the party nominee in 2008, that they refused to vote for him, but I, as a loyal Republican, held my nose and did the deed. H...
In no particular order: People often lightly suggest that “you should sue X”. Lawsuits are multi-year arduous, tedious affairs. My opinion is that the threshold for a lawsuit should be if you lived without civil society would you be willing to commit violence to achieve your objective? If no, then find another way. A customer of ours recently got banned on Wikipedia for aggressively defending me on my Wiki page . Apparently he had been contributing for years. I fee...
