  1. That's offensive to compare Biden to Chavez. Chavez wasn't senile. You should also point out that Hollywood and Democrat elite still love Chavez.

  2. I wish I could upvote this about 1,000 times. Every country with "free" chuckle healthcare always suffers from two things: 1) Governments imposed health rationing and 2) wait times designed to make sure you die before you get any expensive treatments. Heck, Canada dropped all pretense and offers assisted suicide as a treatment option for even relatively minor issues like "depression".

  3.  @workingcountry1776  That has more to do with the monetary policy of the US Government than any sort of AI revolution.

  4.  @RichQcCa  The latest figures indicate (From the NY Times, no less) that number was significantly inflated.

  5.  @Deontjie  Easier. You give a scientist a $10K grant, they'll claim magic is real.

  6. They're also missing the power of woke ideology, the war in Ukraine (which is far more unpopular than the pollsters believe), and even though they say it's important, they're missing how angry people are about inflation.

  7. bookies and sex work are the most honest professions in the world. They have to be or they'd go out of business.

  8. But not me. I am the science. And I'm not taking any questions.

  9. He has spent 300 million trillion billion trillion trillion dollars in those 50 years.

  10.  @jamesmori7859  We've hit peak oil at least 20 times in the last 50 years.

  11.  @drkreuzer670  Impossible to tax the truly rich. They employ smarter people than governments.

  12.  @RichQcCa  Science does not determine truth or falsehood, it proposes a hypothesis that best fits the data. Truth is left to philosophers.

  13.  @Uberragen21  Wikipedia is a good place to do a 10-minute education where you can then use the access you have in college to peer-reviewed work (which I miss). When I was getting my MS, I also would use MIT Journal and Harvard Business Review as sources, and those are acceptable as well.

  14.  @guillermoelnino  Global boiling last week, this week the earth has cooled off. all is well. Now stop questioning us, plebe!

  16.  @larrote6467  "none of you care ab out what's true, you care about what makes you feel good" Well, thanks heavens for you. You care about what's true unlike everyone else. OTOH, perhaps claiming the moral high ground makes you feel good, rather than caring about what's true. Which is the mark of a true ideologue.

  17. Fortunately you can move to states that respect personal freedom. If you live in the EU, where do you go?

  18.  @rolandwoltman7835  In fact, Rand Paul is an eye surgeon and still has medical privileges at two Kentucky hospitals. On the other hand Fauci has never practiced medicine as a licensed doctor. He came out of residency and became a government bureaucrat.

  19.  @Hella333  It's true in failed communist state the people who were given money to sit around dislike the fall of communism.

  20.  @peterpan8263  No doubt you think Fauci is smart.

  21. It's heartening that you recognize our government really isn't here to help us.

  22. The irony is man's influence on the climate is small. Climate change cannot be stopped. The climate has always changed and always will.

  23.  @iexist.imnotjoking5700  There's no such thing as "scientific consensus". There was "scientific consensus" that the earth was the center of the universe at one time.

  24.  @vicepresidentmikepence889  That's like complaining that the government built the roads we travel on.

  25.  @grocerylist  Not as big an embarrassment as you for making such a silly comment. Santa will be bringing you coal.

  26. the "far right" to the leftists is basically anyone who doesn't agree with them. Which is weirdly fascist.

  27. Koonin's book is good, and he's such a distinguished scientist it was hard to shout him down, but the climate crazies claim he's "incompetent", which is funny.

  28.  @SJM6791  There are many reasons why no one in history has been able to "tax the rich".

  29. Come to the US, there is capital to support new businesses.

  30.  @ge2719  His point is that you can't prove that's what caused it or what fixed it. It's in a class of problems known as "wicked problems". Look that up if you don't know what it means.

  31. When Bill Nye and John Oliver team up, we're all dumber for the effort.

  32. With the way public schools are run today, you'd be crazy to send your kids to them. Pushing the rainbow when in many cases kids can't read or do math. It is truly disgraceful. But what you really notice here is the people who run the school and the teachers are looking to innovate in terms of how and what they teach. Public schools are still caught in a 19th century paradigm and both administrators and teacher unions like it that way.

  34. College isn't for thinking anymore, it's about conformance.

  35.  @cptspinach  Yes, but part of that social compact is that everybody is expected to pull their own weight, plus a bit more to pay for the disabled and old. Today, Democrats claim the social contract says that rich guys will pay your way in life. No society can survive when more than 40% of people are living from the labor of everyone else.

  36.  @dannysullivan3951  What do you mean "capitalism doesn't exist without socialism"?

  37.  @robertfranklin8704  So the answer is "It's kind of a fantasy"

  38.  @dannysullivan3951  Not really. It's no more socialistic than a 401K.

  39.  @Uberragen21  I don't think that's completely true. When you're looking at hard science topics, it's a good way to bring you up to speed quickly and then you switch to peer-reviewed papers to find references that support your thesis.

  40.  @mattm8932  Matt, honey, he's a career bureaucrat. I realize as someone who didn't go into a STEM program that it's all mysterious, but Fauci is the worst thing to happen to public health in the world since AIDS.

  41.  @theq68  True, but California said "don't plug in your electric car for a few days"

  42. The key is that you will be hard pressed to find a correlation between storm events and warming climate. Many scientists have proposed there is a link, but the data doesn't support it.

  43. Bulgaria is still very poor, but the people are wonderful. The country was polluted and destroyed by socialism.

  44. Huh. People who lack any sort of logic or even data and rely on their feelings have decided we're lonely. Sounds like projection. Maybe these people are lonely because they're insufferable and people don't want to be around them.

  45.  @yakbreeder  He probably thinks "the government" will pay for them. so they're free!

  46.  @Monkerey  What he said is we can never move completely to renewable, that we always need things that don't depend on sunny days or windy shorelines. The only realistic alternatives we have right now are all hydrocarbon based. And if you really believe climate change is an "existential threat", then you have to be a big fan of nuclear.

  47.  @jeffk464  It's time to get rid of half of federal workers, and only allow congressmen to have a staff of two people.

  48.  @robertfranklin8704  Where is this "Christian Socialism" practiced?

  49.  @dannysullivan3951  None of what you mention is socialism though. Not sure why you'd even think that.

  50.  @Alan0000able  In the end, it's like trying to decide which is worse: being burned by a cigarette or sticking your hand on a hot stove.
