The retraction note is all innuendo. It doesn't cure any actual wrongdoing, nor the actual basis of it's suspicions. just that "questions have been raised".

Meanwhile, studies that were quoted by grifters in the first true post-truth trial of Monsanto causing cancer were all ghostwritten by greenie hippies.

It's also not like it's the _only_ study of glyphosate safety. There have been 13 reliable mouse studies since 1984 ( https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/a... ), that found no effect on mice in any reasonable concentration. But now the anti-glyphosate grifters are going to glomp onto this study and pretend that nothing else exists.

right, they modded me troll decade and a half ago here when I said the nations will fall apart, governments will fail, libertarian ideas will take hold. They are modding me troll today, yet it is exactly what is happening. It is possible that people are actually afraid that my comments will cause ot to jappen somehow should more people read them. My comments are not the reason anything happens, that is magical thinking by the fearful moderators. My comments are a prediction and the reality is moving in the direction of my prediction.

It's very clear that you didn't read the article, don't understand the arguments involved, but SOMEHOW feel entitled to spout your opinion.

Why?? Why not just read the article and become smarter? You don't need to show your ignorance off to the world, you can easily read the article, become non-ignorant and say something informed.

The only reason th US is where it is right now is because the dollar is still the world currency. It remains so because you need dollars to buy oil.

People who complain about the US dollar and oil are people who've never taken an economics class.

If you're too lazy to learn economics, then do a simple search to find out the world's oil production compared to the number of dollars in the world, and that should give you an idea of how much influence it actually has.

see, here nobody accepts my belief system, they have moded both of my comments as "troll", yet I never troll here, I always say what I mean when it comes to tech, politics and economics. To mode my comments as "troll" means to declare that I do not believe and practice what I say or maybe that I am trying to start some sort of a riot. The former assumes that I am not serious, the latter assumes that everyone reading these comments camnot engage in civilized discourse, it is disgusting really, that people deny others their intentions or agency.

Correct, government shouldn't be running services, this is up to the private individuals to satisfy needs at an agreed price. Years ago here I said that at some point in the 21st century we will see collapse of the government structures, we are observing it now. The next logical step is to have all services, no matter what they are to be done privately if needed. This is what I am rooting for, I am hoping to see it in this life time.

Simply stated, the psychological industry has a monetary profit motive in getting more people on daily maintenance medicine. Each person on a daily maintenance medicine means 2 to 4 office visits per year allowing a psychologists to have a steady stream of paying customers.

This is much cheaper than actually going through the labor intensive process of psychoanalysis, so insurance companies like it.
