Comment I Didn't Expect The Spanish Inquisition!!! (Score 1) 632
But I'm getting it..
The Inquisition didn't officially end until the 1800s. It turned Spain from the richest, most powerful nation in the world to a nothing, has been state. It caused many of its most educated and skilled to flee.. What else? A lot..
Might doesn't make right. Intimidation doesn't make global warming stop. Stupidity doesn't bring back innovation when its been silenced. Milking monopolies and intellectual property doesn't substitute for creation of new wealth.
The GOP may be able to maintain control of the US. They may be able to suppress our dealing with these things, even as people die from the natural disasters..skin cancer..pollution, etc. caused by their brain-dead greed-centric policies..
But the WORLD and its ideas and economic vitality will just route itself around (US, or other) censorship... don't you think?
