Engineers cannot replicate the problem in the highly publicized Prius that supposedly accelerated out of control on a California freeway.
Obama's totalitarian buddy Hugo Chavez plans to censor the internet. That's what all the cool totalitarian kids are doing.
TAX AND SPEND:
Harry Reid repeatedly claims America has a voluntary tax system. Orwell would be proud.
EDUCATION:
Texas adds Hayek and Friedman to textbooks. Thats excellent.
HEALTH CARE:
Trust problems continue to plague Democrats over this reconciliation plan. They should. Once the House has passed the Senate bill as is and Obama has signed it, neither the Senate nor Obama has any incentive to revisit the bill.
Republican anti-Obamacare leader Paul Ryan voted for the prescription drug expansion of Medicare. What a hypocrite.
GLOBAL WARMING:
This is a beautiful example of the folly of central planning. The British government banned some ads commissioned by a government official because they exaggerated the claims of climate change. I don't support using the government to silence proponents of man-made climate change, but what if the proponent is using money taken from us by force to push that position? It's not clear if that happened in this case (at least directly - all this climate change nonsense is funded by tax dollars), but it's interesting to see the government fight itself, and it's thought-provoking. I don't want the government taking more money from me to either promote or shoot down the climate change fraud.
Legitimate scientists continue to condemn the manipulation of data and the failure to share data by the climate frauds even when they believe the fraud.
Sun's conveyor belt running at never before seen high rate of speed. Of course, since the sun is over 4 billion years old and we've only been monitoring the conveyor belt for a few decades, that's not nearly as alarming as it might sound, but it might be responsible for the low solar activity we're experiencing.
Global warming concerns continue to drop.
New technology using clam shells to reconstruct temperature data shows the same features we know so well from other sources including the Little Ice Age, the Medieval Warm Period and the Roman Warm Period.
The UN named it's new head of the climate change promotion organization. It's a former South African apartheid government spy. You can't make this stuff up.
WAR ON DRUGS:
Mexicans kill American consulate worker and husband.
I want to read this book purporting to expose how government intelligence services work with drug kingpins.
WAR:
Homegrown terrorist had brainwashed seven year old son into jihadist. This is happening all over the world because we're waging war on Middle Eastern Muslims. All we have to do to stop it is stop waging war on Middle Eastern Muslims. We're creating a whole new generation of terrorists with our policies. No wonder the politicians keep telling us this war will never end. They're making sure it will never end.
More on the McCain-Lieberman bill to turn Americans into military prisoners. It's easy to see how bad Obama is since we have to defend ourselves against him every day, but we'd have had to defend ourselves against McCain too.
If you believe that the government won't use census data to help spy on Americans, I have some land in Florida I'd like to sell you.
Obama and Axelrod claim they're against corporations having free speech in elections, but that's the law in Illinois.
LOCAL:
Researchers moving to UD to develop mind reading technology for the government. You got to be kidding me.
MISC:
Five steps every civilization goes through during collapse, we're on the way.
"One of the disturbing facts of history is that so many civilizations collapse," warns anthropologist Jared Diamond in "Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed." Many "civilizations share a sharp curve of decline. Indeed, a society's demise may begin only a decade or two after it reaches its peak population, wealth and power."That may be true, but the seeds of our collapse have been planted throughout American history from the creation of the Constitution through the civil war to the Federal Reserve and income tax and the creation of the welfare state.
"You are also reminded of one of history's great tragic ironies -- that all nations fail to learn the lessons of history, that all nations and their leaders fall prey to their own narcissistic hubris and that all eventually collapse from within."The more I read, the more I see that.
"'The Consummation of Empire' focuses us on Ferguson's core message: At the very peak of their power, affluence and glory, leaders arise, run amok with imperial visions and sabotage themselves, their people and their nation. They have it all."We suffered through that. A major point of this essay is how quickly we could collapse.
Incumbent re-election rates are ridiculously high.
