  1. BARF It's fantastic watching the Progressive Socialists implode in a pile of their own B.S.

  2. LOL.... Russia, doing the job your Media should be doing GASP alarming. Note: with no citations to the actual data itself, I'm calling FAKE NEWS on this. I'm not interested in a link to a another news source. Cite the actual source showing an actual Russian hacker. If not, this is just more gossip than "News".

  5. These large earth movers a great and have been used in Australia for a long time. Whenever possible, we should try to remove humans from unsafe dangerous jobs. There will come a time when manual labor is no longer needed - doesn't mean it won't exist, there's probably some appeal in being served by a human and not an automaton, but actual people will not be required.

  6. Does David also support raising the standards for admission and retention in the USA to that of Germany? Because, if so, about 80-90% of Americans attending Universities - won't be. See, Germany has an entirely different educational system. One that begins to differentiate students much much earlier. Most Americans wouldn't even make it past the testing requirements to enter a German University - that's a big savings. Most Americans who did make it, would fail out quite quickly - again, more savings. Hell, by the time we adopted the German system we'd SAVE money, because most American university students simply wouldn't BE university students. My guess is, of those Americans that had the aptitude to gain entry into a University with German entry standards, those students of the accepted cohort would largely be Asian and White from the upper classes whose families could afford the good primary education needed to get into a German-styled University (as opposed to most Government schools) as well as family culture of education (most learning is valued because of the parents value of education - see China, Japan, Korea, Germany, Singapore, Finland, not America..... ). This happened in UC Berkeley - the population of Asian students rocketed from 3% to 40% as soon as the UC system stopped using race in their means testing (many so-called Liberals now want race brought back to unfairly discriminate against Asians). Look at what happened in Ann Arbor this year when a few black students were not given a placement because they couldn't compete at the level required to make it into UofM (even though they did quite well at their local Government school).  So, in short, the German system works in Germany but probably wouldn't be accepted by American voters here in the USA (where 1 in 5 Government schooled American is a functional illiterate) - simply because soon after, most Universities would be barren of students (probably within a few years of trying the German approach).

  8. LOL what a joke. She also grabbed Trump, maybe he should sure her too?

  9. Essentially Obama's argument is: 12 years of Government schooling is useless (1 in 5 government school graduates are functionally illiterate) therefore lets provide two more years of institutional government education and that'll fix everything. What we need to do is to fix the first 12 years of horrifically institutionalized government schooling. But that would mean taking on government school teachers unions. Why do that when you can give them even more money? Which is what he's proposing. Two more years taking MCQs in an over crowded community college is a waste of time and money for more people.

  12. 1) Obama isn't the reason why fuel is below $2.50/gallon. He doesn't set the price of oil. Jesus. 2) Who cares what some other crooked politicians said they'd do? They also don't set the price of oil. 3) Most of the so-called jobs are part-time low paid menial employment. Which is why the Left wing of the Party had its arse handed to it. Welcome to the New Economic- get used to it, its here to stay.

  15. Its immoral for an adult to molest a child. 17 or not. He was obviously still an impressionable child. She's the one off in the head and needs to see a psychologist.

  16. Spanking should be illegal - outright illegal. By parents, teachers, anyone - they should go to jail for spanking children. ALL scientific studies show spanking damages neural development.

  19. Donating money to a political campaign isn't the same as seeking out regulatory capture. CAN they go hand in hand? Yes. But not necessarily. The Koch brothers also donate a lot of money to PBS and have paid a lot of money to teach evolution in school. So? IS David going to pull a Faux News smear job OR is David going to present an example of where the Koch brothers have lobbied and obtained market favoring regulation leading to regulatory capture? So far I hear a lot demagogy come from David (per usual) but zero substance in terms of rent-seeking on the part of the Koch brothers. It should be noted, most people in David's audience would swoon for a high paying job in Koch industries. Many engineers, chemists, scientists, etc... have rewarding good paying jobs in Koch Industries (which was actually created by their father).

  20. From the article: “He was very sheltered. If he broke the guidelines, he got punished.” Replace 'sheltered' with 'abused'.

  21. Either David is a propagandist or he's a poor reporter. Clinton is still being investigated by the FBI. She's been cleared of 1 specific charge, which would have required her to directly state in an email specific words to incriminate herself (which no one would do). All they looked for was 'intent'. They're still conducting numerous investigations and will continue to do so.

  23. Highly skilled immigrants are not in the same statistical category as refugees, undocumented workers or illegal immigrants. Furthermore, "revitalization" being somewhat meaningless, not all immigrants are culturally equivalent. Japan has a very small number if immigrants and almost no refugees and their cities are the cleanest, safest, most revitalized in the world.

  24. Seeing as in David didn't mention it, Pew Research Center shows Gun Homicide Rate Down 49% Since 1993 Peak; Public Unaware. IMO the only reason David is pandering to your fear of being 'gunned down' is because he's carrying water for Hilary Clinton in her run for the POTUS. It makes no other sense to distort the truth so much other than to make people fearful. Oh, and the vast number of people killed are Government run welfare ghetto's black on black crime. Take those numbers out, and the stats drop like a rock. Then you'd be more likely to be stabbed in England than shot in the USA.

  27. Use a chartered Montessori if at all possible. Public obedience training is the last thing you should put your children through. Public Schools, destroying the love of learning one mind at a time.

  28. Let's just go ahead and qualify a few of the statements - least this appear to be another case of fake, or misleading, "news". 1. Most Americans do not own stocks in the stock market. 2. Most of the jobs created under Obama were/are part-time or contract (>94%) 3. Thank god the popular vote doesn't count. If anything, we need to restrict the vote to people who are literate and can pass a simple on-screen quiz about how the government works. That alone will do a lot to end the tyranny of Progressive Socialism. 4. George Soros donated 33 million in grants to the racist movement known as Black Lives Matter via his Open Society Foundations. Those are the racist thugs who pushed Sanders off his podium. Notice how quickly that boot-licker caved in and supported Clinton. Recall, this foundation is pushing for even more immigration - we'll see how that works out for Progressive Socialist Utopia / Europe (which is turning nationalistic - thankfully). 5. 57% of whichever demographic they chose to 'poll'.... hahahahaha.... talk about a low bar. Look, TRUMP's victory is evidence that Obama's policies were a total failure (see: ObamaCare). As for what Trump can and cannot do? HE shouldn't be doing anything other than making sure CONgress follows the US Constitution. Making America Great Again is not in the job description of POTUS. Nor is fixing the economy. Sadly, people always want a Nanny State in the form of a dictator to take care of them - and that, I believe, is the end of the road for us here in the USA. No, not the next decade, or three - but, probably within our lifetimes. And probably from the far Left. Though, a far Right dictator is equally as likely. And the David's of the world will be cheerleading us all the way - as long as the dictator is on his side, taking from THEM and giving to US, for the "Good of Society".

  29. Looks like the far Left SJW socialists are finally having their way....

  30. French, Italians, Germans, English - these we all different 'races' in the 1800s. I personally know Japanese, Korean and Chinese each of whom have told me they are different 'races'. It's clear to see that 'race' is a social construct. Does DNA play a role in height? Yes, it does. That's not a race. Does DNA play a role in IQ. Probably. That isn't a race either. Does DNA play a role in eye color, hair color, skin color, eye structure, bone structure? Yes. Those aren't races either.  If you're Asian looking and grow up in the the USA, speak English, dress American and have ZERO cultural connection to the East. You're an "American". I'd argue you more English than Asian as you'd share most of your culture from the English (even if you lived in the USA).  Saying you're an "Asian American" only makes sense IF you are suggesting an Asian "cultural" heritage (maybe you were born in Asia or speak Mandarin, Japanese, Korean, etc....). It makes as much sense as saying I'm a green eyed American. Or suggesting a green eyed Asian is a different 'race' from brown eyed Asians.  I hope that clears things up a little.

  32. We waste $50 BILLION each and every year on the Department of Education/Stupidification - and have been paying for this mess since 1979 with NO gain in education when measured on all aptitudes and have actually regressed relative to many other nations. Why do people think taking money out of the hands of the middle class and giving it to some moron bureaucrat is a good idea?!? We're now paying more tax than what we fought the Revolutionary War over. Income Tax / Labor Tax is an abomination.  Not that it matters. There's nothing to do now - so I think we should elect as many Socialist Progressives into CONgress as is possible and sink this mess. Some people need to see it to believe it and so that's the only viable solution. Just tax the hell out of the rich, middle class, poor - everyone. Give it all to the State and let them start more phony wars, bribe more people with boondoggles, the full 9 yards and finally sink this mess of a nation. Finally, when the State has total control over all aspects of our lives, then, maybe, when we're starving to death, people like David will think, Oh, now I see why.

  34. Japan is so much freer of a country. Particularly when it comes to you and your business. Of course you can smoke! It's YOUR business. If people don't like it, they're free to go somewhere else. "Think of the children"..... yes David, we do think of the children and we don't want to leave them a Fascist neo-Dictatorship like the USA has become. People are free to smoke. We even have cigarette vending machines- they're everywhere.

  35. I've said this numerous times, thank the Gods Japanese favor the right to remain and preserve their indigenous monoculture. Its simply so much freer in Japan. No police state needed to enforce progressive ideology. Japanese cities are clean, no graffiti, ultra safe. Children and old ladies can walk anywhere in ANY Japanese city. There are no 'bad parts of town' in Japan. This simply doesn't exist. No slums, no ghettos and no cheap labor force. Just Japanese. We can leave stock out on the street at night with no worry of it being stolen. We have beer, wine, cigarette and even liquor (rarer) vending machines sitting by the roads with no worry of them being pilfered. We have play ground equipment that's actually fun to play on, not the bubble wrap like in the USA. No worries about being sued. We have bars that seat 5 - that's normal, these would be illegal in the USA. We have restaurants out of the back room of someone's house, again, these wouldn't pass the millions of regulations that keep Americans safe from one another. Thank the Gods the Japanese have preserved their human right to retain their indigenous monoculture.

  36. We also need to set a minimum cup of coffee price. And a minimum price for a chicken. You know, to keep up with inflation. We need a minimum movie theater ticket price. All set by central planners in Washington. Preferable the crony's who run the central bank.  When David said "This is the Ethical and moral thing to do" he missuses the word Ethical (which is actually a discipline, one that studies morals) and it's actually immoral to use force against innocence humans. Even to force them to buy labor at a certain price. It's also immoral to force people from selling labor at a certain price. So, the Ethical 'thing to do' would be NOT to enforce a minimum wage.  Like these countries: Austria Brunei Denmark Finland Germany Hong Kong Iceland Italy Norway Singapore Sweden Labor hours are no different than anything else. If you want the price to go up, then you need the supply of laborer's selling hours to go down and the number of people buying labor hours to go up. Which means eliminating central planning, eliminating regulations that lead to regulatory-capture and rent-seeking, eliminating licencing scams and bring in free markets. Pretty much everything Progressive Socialists and their magic thinking oppose. It's pretty simple, make it easier for people to open businesses and their demand for labor will drive up the price per hour.

  37. fuck google+ Do German students graduate from high school unable to read and write, unable to perform basic mathematics, unable to find Germany on a globe, with little (if any) understanding of basic history? I asked a group of pre-med students what the log base 10 of 100 was and only three out of 50 knew the answer. Ever hear of that happening in Germany with Science Graduates? Well, it happens in USA. It's so bad now many Universities have to set summer schools just to get the students up to the level to attend basic 101 courses. Which are already dumbed down to the point of being nearly useless. The problem with the USA is the people - namely, Americans. Germans elect a chancellor with a doctorate in physical chemistry. Americans elect a dumb-arse from Texas and a doofus social worker from Chicago - both of whom prefer golf to work. The problems in the USA are so deeply ingrained in our system - there is no fixing it. Can we raise taxes and pay for more degrees in uselessness? Sure - and then what? They go get in line at Walmart along with all the other PhD graduates wondering why they can't find a job?

  38. jeb31415 Most people get rich by coming up with an idea people like. Amazon, Ebay, Toyota, etc... all of these companies make products people want and are only successful by remaining engaged with the middle class. Also, much like smart phones, they start out selling to the rich and within a couple years everyone has one.

  39. More LEFT vs RIGHT paradigm propaganda.  Helping to polarize America one idiotic poll at a time.

  40. Progressive is meaningless. As a "Progressive" GMO may be great - it's making 'Progress' in food supply. As a "Progressive" GMO is horrible - it's retarding out 'Progress' in protecting our environment. What is a Progressive ideal today, is Traditionalist's Conservatism tomorrow. IOWs, these buzz words are meaningless. Just state the facts per issue and leave the labels off.

  41. Nice that David produces zero evidence of anything (along with all the hysteria in the comments section). Firstly, half my family lives in Japan, I spend a good deal of time in Japan, I was just in Japan a few months ago. Secondly, I've worked with radioactive particles (as part of medical research) in the past. Thirdly, the facts: 1. The radiation is so diluted that NO the California coast is NOT being dosed by Fukushima. Nuclear weapons testing conduced by the USA put orders of maginitde MORE radiation into the Earths atmosphere and it didn't raise the radioactive level of the Pacific Ocean (or any other Oceans). We have that data. It's one microsievert. That's 1/10 a single day's normal exposure from the sun. If you walked outside today for an hour - that'd be that much. 2. Thus, no, radioactive particles are not causing dead sea-life in San Francisco and no 'your friend' did not catch mutated Tuna somewhere once while at Band Camp. Dead sea-life is most likely due to the changes caused by increasing CO2 absorption which is shifting bicarbonate into carbonic acid. One more time, the USA put magnitudes MORE radioactive particles into Earth's atmosphere testing nuclear weapons. This WAS DONE. We have the data. If there were to be an effect of radiation on sea life it would have happened at some point from 1940-1980. 3. Yes, you DO have to worry about radioactive particles in the sea life NEAR Fukushima. Yes, it is possible if a radioactive particle got into the food chain and you could injest it. Believe it or not, you do all the time. That's why we talk about dose. So, you do HAVE radioactive particles inside you right now. Thankfully not that many and unless you live on Honshu, or in Fukushima Prefecture this isn't something you have to worry about. 4. Chernobyl was a much larger nuclear catastrophe relative to Fukushima. 5. Radioactive uranium and polonium naturally dissolves in seawater and has for the last 2 billion years. The oceans therefore have a naturally higher background radioactive becquerel count. Yes tuna and other large fish have radioactive particles in them. AND SO DO YOU.  6. Radioactive waters NEAR Fukushima are higher than normal and you should not allow young children to swim in those waters due to possible radioactive cesium exposure. 7. The leaking radioactive water will need to by dealt with - probably through evaporation which it is what the USA did when 3 mile island melt down.  8. Yes, the place is a mess and yes people will have to clean it up. No, homeless people are not forced to work in nuclear fall out zones. Jesus David - Japan has a general welfare program BETTER than that in the USA. Japan also doesn't suffer from the welfare housing slums because Japanese generally feel shamed for taking a handout other people's taxes paid them. Unlike in the USA where collecting a handout is totally disconnected from the middle class being taxed to death. Japan is in many ways a much freer country in terms of civil liberty. You can gasp drink a large soda in Japan. Bicycle without a helmet. Vending machines sell cigarettes and beer gasp right out there where anyone could buy them. You can open small home businesses without as many regulations found in the USA making it easier for poor people to create work instead of taking general welfare. Why are there homeless? For the same reason you find homeless all over England and all over Sydney Australia. Some people do not like to live on general welfare and choose to live on the streets. The same is true in Japan. Thank the GODS we do not have too many David's inside Japan. Japanese people are generally resistant to this sort of propaganda. Oh, and unlike in the USA, Japanese in general don't trust their government. They think it's funny how Americans like David flag wave for Obama and for years (even now) you can find comical shirts that say Yes We Can taking the piss out of your average ignorant American. Yes, you Americans are seen somewhat as naive and a joke EVEN in Japan!

  44. Terry Kuek You seem to be hung up on people working. Why? In the 1800s most people wouldn't have had the luxury to have this debate because most people got up at 5 am and worked on the farm until sundown just to survive. Today most people don't even work 8 hours and many don't work at all. And at the same time, the problem is starving to death, but eating one's self to death. So, it's not about 'working'. Tractors replaced humans on the farm, back in 1800 about 85% worked on the farm. Now less than 5% work on the farm. Your argument seems to be that tractors are 'bad' because then most people won't have 'work'. This just isn't true. Thus, replacing humans by using computer driven large machines is actually a GOOD thing.  One day we'll have 3D printers and most of the jobs Thom is worrying about, will be completely gone. What then? Then you'll hear Thom spin a tale about how evil 3D printers are. Because, they're taking all the 'jobs'.

  45. David is wrong to suggest unspent money is not stimulating the economy. It's placed in a bank and lent out at interest to provide the capital for new business, to hire new staff, to expand existing businesses, etc... The reason why America looks like one Walmart smear from coast to coast is because these idiot Keynesians have diverted out money from investment into spending it on cheap made in China crap, AKA: Stimulus.

  46. cyborganic99 While "God did it" may seem plausible, it's not the real answer. More people thought "God did it" in 1950 then in 2010. In 1910 you needed to know how to read BEFORE being allowed into a Public School. Now many Public School graduates are functionally illiterate. Stop and ask yourself this: Did I, or you, write anything logical? Or anything rational? Do you know the difference? Can you write a logical sentence? Is that even possible or does logic require a couple sentences. How many forms of logic do you know? Who invented logic? Who are the top 3 most famous Empiricists? Rationalists? What is Descartes famous for in mathematics? How is Science different from Natural Philosophy? What is an ANOVA used for? And etc... I'm sure "God did it" is not the reason 99.99% of Americans don't understand these basic concepts whereas educated Americans of 100 years ago probably did. The problems with Education are structural and can not BE fixed. Children are not cars, they cannot be stamped off an assembly line, learning doesn't happen like that. Anyway, I stand by my statement, we need to elect as many Social Progressives as we can into CONgress. Including the couple jerk-offs with the ad hominems here in this thread. Just keep electing Social Progressives into office. That's the solution.  The good thing is, this IS going to happen. While Millennials overwhelmingly don't trust Government, they also overwhelmingly support greatly expanding it. So, Public School does do one thing correct.

LOL Meanwhile in the real world, Chiraq is contemplating calling in the National Guard under a State of Emergency due to the record breaking number of people being shot and killed. Well, I suppose if you work in ER, there's some jobs O-blah-blah helped to create in his hometown.

  50. Small government by definition cannot interfere in our private lives.  BIG government can, and often does, use force against innocent people to do all sorts of things: labor tax, fight in phony wars, attend religious services, wear certain clothing, who you can marry, what you can eat, etc.....
