Look at their success ratios!

And why isn't the NFL picking up the tab? Same with any large sporting event. Owners need to start contributing instead of taking a free ride.

All drivers over 60 should be re-tested in a simulator every 5 years. Over 75,every two years. If you fail, the license goes bye-bye. This would be trivial to accomplish. btw, about 30% of ALL drivers have poor night vision-young and old!

The LAST thing I want is Facebook acting as a platform for ANY of my essential communications. They have repeatedly lied - over and over - about privacy. No way!

Highly recommended as a supplement to Piketty: http://www.amazon.com/Inequali...

Here's an excerpt from one of the reviews,on Amazon: "The author asserts that it is not morally wrong and that the conversation should be around the concept of - do you have enough (sufficiency) vs do you have the same as someone else (equality)."

This is a short book: highly recommended, along with Piketty.

So how is it different than email - ultimately? Twitter is irrelevant!

Florida was stolen by Jeb Bush enabling his AG, Katherine Harris, to disallow any voter who had a name similar to any convicted felon. FIFTY_THOUSAND voters - mostly minorities who vote Dem - were kept from voting. Bush won by 500 votes.

The ACA was compromised because Obama - instead of CRUSHING the private insurers when he had the votes - agreed to keep them in the system and negotiate terms with them in secret. We need a single payer system, like all other developed economies. Yes, that means higher taxes. Either we take care of one another, or we don't. If we want to maintain a "winner-takes-all" meme in America, where everything is rated in dollars,then we are finished as a culture, long term.

Bulk beans,rice, pasta, cheap cuts of frozen fish or meat (and DON'T pile it on the plate! - a piece the size of your palm will suffice); bulk grains,bake you own bread, bulk greens and canned greens. 2 people should be able to live on that for a moth. buy milk in bulk and make your own yogurt. Look for fruit no sale;stew it and add to bread, yogurt, etc. Bulk eggs. "Drinks"? WATER,from the tap. You want something sweet? Bake muffins or a cake. Lunch? Fruit and nuts - bulk nuts and raisins.

What is the possibility of mouth bacteria evolving to mouth super-bacteria? Bacteria are very adaptive creatures, and we continue to find out with many baterial diseases that were once wiped out, only tocome back stronger and meaner than before. Look at the FAIL in anti-bacterial soap - same thing.

Libel and slander laws will be useful for prosecuting the dolts that start "rating" people on Peeple. I would also think that many Plaintiffs will include Peeple's principals and investors inn those lawsuits. That will keep their burn rate real hot!

FIRST among developed nations for gun-related homicide, and FOURTH among ALL nations for total death by gun.

But SCOTUS also said that municipalities have the right to make reasonable limits to access. Yes, do try to keep up!

Epidemiological research shows that most who survive a first suicide attempt to not re-attempt suicide; this research also shows that the easy availability of guns make that first attempt FAR more deadly than by other methods. Thus, the sheer easy availability of guns makes for more successful (if you want to call it that) first suicide attempts. If some percentage of those first time gun suicide attempts had not had access to a gun they would have had a better chance of survival and (according to the research) gone on to survive long term.

This has become a regular event in America. We can lay a lot of responsibility for this at the feet of the terrorist NRA and the corrupt legislators they pay off, with both these latter groups little more a bunch of bootlickers to the gun manufacturers. There are more than 300 MILLION guns in this crazy nation - so many that *anyone* who wants to get a gun can get one, one way or another. America is FOURTH in death by gun, after Thailand, Nigeria and Colombia; that's the company we keep. We have more murders by gun than any developed (and many undeveloped) nations. It's a national disgrace. More people have died by gunshot in America than were killed in all our wars! The NRA *actively* lobbies to defeat laws that will keep guns out of the hands of mentally ill persons, and on and on. It's a national disgrace. What about the rights of the 100's of thousands of people that have been murdered by gun in America - what about them?
