A little video put together in a Powerline contest designed to illustrate the impact of inflation. Enjoy.
A striking headline, to say the least: “Debate crowd cheers letting uninsured die.” Really? Really? Someone, somewhere, is dumb enough to believe that, but I’m not. So I looked up what really happened. It starts just before the five minute mark in this Ron Paul highlight video–I know, but it was the only place I could readily find that had the exchange in its entirety–when Wolf Blitzer asks Dr. Paul what should happen if a young man chooses not to buy health insurance and then contracts an expensive ailment. Paul began by saying that this is the essence of freedom–the ability to take risks. This answer got a lot of applause, as it should. Blitzer followed up by asking whether “society” should then let the young man die. Yahoo told its uncritical readers that the “debate crowd cheer[ed] the idea of “letting [the] uninsured die.” But that isn’t what the crowd cheered at all:
Paul answered Blitzer’s question “No.” By my count, three people yelled “Yeah” in response to Blitzer’s question, should “society” let the young man die. Paul’s answer was actually good: he said that when he was practicing medicine, the churches took care of indigent patients, and “we never turned anyone away.” That got another round of applause. “Society,” in other words, includes much more than the government.

For 70 years, a lone trading desk in Canada’s prairie region quietly has held sway over the price of wheat and, in effect, how much consumers pay for everything from a loaf of bread to a bowl of pasta.
But those days are numbered. Article
Very touching rescue, very tight speedos.
For those times you prefer a boner with your red beans and rice. Naughty.
After the nuclear meltdown at the fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan the below video has surfaced. It shows rabbit born without ears.
After the video was posted online, the Japanese government soon announced that this is the next step in the evolution of it’s citizen where Ninja’s don’t need ears. Their next step in the way of evolution will be to see if they can spread the wing and fly higher then U.S. debt ceiling.
“what separates real entrepreneurs from pundits and by-standards is a bias towards getting things done versus over analyzing things”
I also agree with getting things done. Starting any project or a company requires being “agile” allowing your ideas to be flexible to accommodate inputs from others or from lessons learned. This is also a big reason many shun away from start ups because of lower job security. however, for a project to be successful the owner has to be trusting and allow for participants of the project to prove themselves.
while developed countries try to fight off recessionary period developing countries with huge stock piles of monetary reserves are going for the gold err natural resources.
As published a long ago, that china has already started to shift off 100s of thousands of its’ citizens over to Africa India too has been participating in extracting some of that yummy and juciy nat resources that africa has.
What does this really mean for africa? Means more killing of its citizen by its Dictator who will be well funded with money and fire arms by I & C in return for these Dictators allowing them to extract cheap labor and other resources.
“Both India and China want to secure access to the continent’s natural resources, expand influence and bolster African support in international organizations such as the United Nations, though the level of competition shouldn’t be overstated, analysts said.” LINK
- Amazing that even with all this exploration activities by various governments we are just finding these:
Egyptian Pyramids Found With NASA Satellite
As many as 17 pyramids, more than 1,000 tombs and 3,000 settlements were uncovered using infrared technology.
“A top telecommunications regulator who voted to approve Comcast’s takeover of NBC Universal in January is leaving to join the company as a lobbyist.
Meredith Attwell Baker, one of two Republicans on the five-member Federal Communications Commission, will become senior vice president of government affairs for NBC Universal.” — Link
She was nominated by B.O in 2009. She votes to approve and then leaves to go join them. WTF? Is there no freaking law that prevents them from doing this? My employment contract when i was a consultant prohibited me from joining an org for which i had recently worked for.
Corruption to the core….oh by the way over 48 recent Goldman Sachs employees are now working for B.O in top positions.
On the days that are uneventful let us not forget that the Japanese nuclear power plants are still leaking radiation in to the water and atmosphere. this is visible even at night without the lights
.
Two days ago Japanese authorities confirmed that the reactor 1 and 4 are melting down. Today Dow Jones just confirmed that a Giant Fucking Circus Tent will be placed over the reactors.
“Giant polyester covers will soon be placed around the damaged reactor buildings at Japan’s Fukushima nuclear complex to help contain the release of radioactive substances into the atmosphere, the plant operator said Friday.”
Let us not forget that the Japanese are still in competition with the world to see who can be the first to start having citizens with 4 heads, 8 legs, and 2 penises. Californians stop eating those fish, drinking that milk and surfing in that water. Right about now, the wind is blowing eastward from the Japan bribing all of the radiation that is the atmosphere towards Cali.
East coast looks great right now huh ?! (at least for now until MA and NJ starts pooping out the radiation)
