The problem with free market constructs is there is no such thing and never will be. It's purely a theoretical construct which cannot exist in reality. In theory, a free market may or may not result in improved efficiencies and performance. But no market can exist absent some system to...

“She faced an intruder” Others have noted this is simlpy wrong. And thats exactly my point. Why we do this, search to find a viable reason to excuse an obviously senseless shooting, escapes me Until people stop rejecting even the premise of viewing things this way, many more are guranteed to...

I didn't even click as the conclusion does not flow from the quote. Your quote says the two parties agreed to an exchange. That isn't a ruling by the court. Nor would a ruling by that judge mean much of anything to an appeal of a subpoena issued by Mueller in another proceeding. This story...

When you make your food choices to spite those who don't share your political views, you are a special kind of awesome.

This story is one of my favorite of the year. It just reeks of pure Americana. Nike sells shoes. They don't enforce policy regarding National Anthems or conduct of NFL players. They want views and name recognition. That's it really. But oh how I adore my American fellows on this matter...

I will offer a simple observation about how these cases with shootings in America, particularly involving police, play out. This is a sad, simple story. A man in his own abode, through no fault of his own, just living his life and doing nothing wrong, was shot and killed. That should never...

To make the economics fair for those states, who pay more to the current federal system than they get out of it. Instead of seeing that money go to missiissippi and alabama, use it for your own. You know, real states right stuff.

Why wouldn't I be? You don't draw broad conclusions from a single data point. But unfortunately, thats the way people "think" now. They seek out an anecdotal event which confiims their view and use it to draw a far broader conclusion Thats why the Breitbart's of the world exist. To post...

Never thought I'd get here, but I now think the states seceding is a viable idea. Let California, Washington and Oregon form its own union. Same for the northeast. Let them fund good education and smart citizens, thrive in the modern tech sectors and out of the coal mines, keep their citizens...

Again, no. One arrest is not evidence of anything being "routinely staged." Its an accusation by the egyptians, to date unproven, of a single instance. And no one on this board knows whether it was the videos that were staged or the accusations relating thereto.

No. I knew there myst be a logical fallacy in play here. The point is THAT GUY apparently was making a false video. It is not evidence that any other videos are inaccurate. Or anything beyond that guy.

Is there some greater point here? I presume this anecdote is intended to be evidence of some greater point, but one could spend hours envisioning what that may be. It wil be easier to comment if you explain the logically flawed broader conclusion you havent shared with us. Hopefully its that...

Ha. Well played. Kidding aside, my point is that such obscenity laws are a risk to far more than the right to view people having sex. It is not a stretch at all, in my mind, to envision the fine christian republicans deciding that an atheist board is obscene. In fact, I would actually...

Wouldnt surprise me at all if this site ended up on SC's "porn" list Great way to control info. No definition, so it is whatever we say it is

Perhaps not drawing wide reaching political conclusions from anectdotal stories would help America. Ha! Who am I kidding. Let's get back to facebooking political positions from discrete events that meet our confirmation bias needs.

I believe Nigel's response would be: Because it goes to 11. (For the unknowing, see Spinal Tap)

Ha. I could totally see Perry thinking he can immediately increase our energy output by 10% simply by making dials that go to 11.

I like this choice. Perry struggles to even remember this department exists. Probably never finds the place

Proud of this hero. Read today there is no child trafficking at the location since he went in A great service to our nation, god and non-child molesting pizza parlors everywhere

Not a coincidence at all. Done for the sole purpose of harming clinton. Purpose served. No need to continue
