    Poll: Is the world overpopulated?

    I have related questions. I am wondering how life experience and perceptions affect the opinions expressed. So, next time you do a poll, ask these three questions: Which Generation do you belong too? Boomers, X, ect. Do you live in an Urban, Suburban or Rural setting? Do you think there is...

    Logic Test

    pfft. The answer is clearly the shadow of the tallest building at precisely Y time of day. The sentence uses an interrogative pronoun. The subject of the sentence is "What". That creates a question even if you leave off the ? at the end. Like a Jeopardy "answer".

    Another logic problem 2

    Moles? In daylight? What the heck are they doing above ground? Or do I have 12 Mole HOLES, which of course I could maybe see, but then being HOLES, they have no weight. And if my backyard is big enough for 12 territorial MOLES, it is not likely I could see ALL the Holes. It is more...

    Game of Thrones

    I am glad HBO has deviated firmly from that monstrous crap that was the books. I was suspicious on the third book, and downright pissed on the 4th, and my suspicions were confirmed in the 5th. Martin himself is lost in this crap. The last episode gave me hope that there will eventually be a...

    Growing Inequality (or How Libertarian Theories Go BOOM!)

    The problem with their interpretation of the Protestant Work Ethic is that it was originally directed at the children of the wealthy. The second sons of lords and whatnot that felt that they weren't supposed to do manual labor in the new colonies. Everyone else knew they had to work to eat.

    Is Holder's DOJ trying to shut down porn?

    Payday lenders too? From the article, this is a pretty wide net that is being cast, not just at porn stars. And just what kind of favors does Chase owe the DOJ that they would comply? And does China attempts to clean up the internet have anything to do with this? Well, I guess if you...

    The Privatization Backlash

    That is what the World Bank Should Promote. But here, I give you a link, you make up your own mind. http://www.brettonwoodsproject.org/ The president of the World Bank is "selected" by the President of the US, and strangely enough, they tend to appoint people who follow their politics. Or...

    Fuck Football... really...

    Actually, the people making money on twitch, besides twitch, are amateur video game players. I like that about it. I like anything where people can make money doing things they like to do and being free to decide when and how much they do it. The big dogs haven't figured out how to get rich...

    E-cigs/”vaping”

    The fancier ones have refillable reservoirs that you can put about any mix of flavors and strength of nicotine in. Nicotine is a poison, just like alcohol and many other substances that will kill you if you do too much. However, recent studies are showing that nicotine, like alcohol, has some...
