Comment Bertrand Russell on vaccination programs (Score 1) 616

""Diet, injections, and injunctions will combine, from a very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible. Even if all are miserable, all will believe themselves happy, because the government will tell them that they are so." Russell, Bertrand. The Impact of Science on Society. 1951

Goldman Sachs Reveals it Shorted Gulf of Mexico NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report) - In what is looming as another public relations predicament for Goldman Sachs, the banking giant admitted today that it made "a substantial financial bet against the Gulf of Mexico" one day before the sinking of an oil rig in that body of water. The new revelations came to light after government investigators turned up new emails from Goldman employee Fabrice "Fabulous Fab" Tourre in which he bragged to a girlfriend that the firm was taking a "big short" position on the Gulf. "One oil rig goes down and we're going to be rolling in dough," Mr. Tourre wrote in one email. "Suck it, fishies and birdies!" The news about Goldman's bet against the Gulf comes on the heels of embarrassing revelations that the firm had taken a short position on Lindsay Lohan's acting career. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/andy-borowitz/goldman-sachs-reveals-it_b_558774.html ALSO SEE: Criminal Negligence: Despite Knowing It Had a Damaged Blowout Preventer, BP STILL Cut Corners By Removing the Single Most Important Safety Measure - http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2010/05/despite-knowing-it-had-damaged-blowout.html AND Prominent Oil Industry Insider: "There's Another Leak, Much Bigger, 5 to 6 Miles Away" - http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2010/05/prominent-oil-industry-insider-theres.html
